Thanks for sharing your journey, Dottie! And thanks for your contribution to 'normalizing' seeking help/therapy; this is something that many POC and communities struggle with. It is viewed in a negative light, sometimes as a personal failure. Many Black women, especially, have internalized the idea that we are "strong", without qualifying the when and where of this strength. Thanks for the reminder that it is okay to seek help when we need it. There is too much at stake to not to do so.
Thanks so much, Aunty P! I really appreciate it - I definitely hope this will contribute to normalizing therapy and encouraging other POC folks to seek help. Therapy was one of the best decisions I've made in my life - I agree, there's too much at stake not to seek help when we need it!
Thanks very informative and helpful. Look forward to your next post
