Venting is necessary for release, bottling emotions and acting like you are above situations isn’t healthy neither.

Women bond over their relationship with other women because they are often not alone in experiencing what they do. It also helps women see when they are getting played by men and not feel alone. I don’t like how most men handle their emotions there is nothing enviable about that.

I don’t believe for a second that men never vent. Dudes be so quick to play contrarian to the point to sound ridiculous. This site would not exist the men cause that is you donkeys venting about women 99% of the time and mirroring each other negative thoughts about women.
If venting is healthy for women, then why do you woemn come on here to get on black men's necks for venting about women? What does therapy mean to you and other black women? Y'all want black men to seek therapy don't want black men to get to the root cause, if the root cause may have anything to do with the BW in their lives, past and present.

:mjgrin:

Black men, you donkeys need to seek therepy and open up and talk about your feelings and past traumas, bbbbbbut don't mention us.

:comeon:

Mmm yeah, because who is the “we” she’s talking about at the end?
Whomever it is, it’s a chore for her (because she’s included in the “we”) to deal
with Black men’s “sh-t”.

yeah...all those problems she listed which are delicate issues? Those are just “sh-t” to her.


Just another reason why I be telling y’all dudes not to be depending on these broads
(whatever their relation to you) for “support” or whatever. Even if they may call themselves caring about you,
they still don’t wanna deal with that “sh-t”.
No one "wants" to deal with a person's traumas, issues, or poor-decision-making. They just do so :yeshrug:

ALL Black men and women need therapy. We live in a world that is actively working to destroy us. shyt come at us on a subconscious level that can destroy our communities. Of course we need some guidance in how to mentally fight this battle called life.


Black men and black women need to stop going at each other in public and online and basically any damn public space at this point.

There's a reason these "nikkas ain't shyt" type tweets get tens of thousands of notes. Non-black people be liking and retweeting that shyt cause they racist and want to have a black person spout the views they have about us without having to come off as racist.

Basically reveling in our dysfunction. And I'm not gonna lie, there's parts of black men that need work, but we can admit black women need work too in parts, and collectively we need work together and to be able to entertain the ability to have healthy dialogues about it instead of reducing ourselves to name calling and putting each other down in front of thousands if not millions of people online.

We need to build each other up dammit! not break each other down!
Come through with a real message!

What’s the source of the “guidance” you’re going to get in Therapy?

What’s the spirit of your question?

To answer, I would assume the therapist. Personally, I was able to find a therapist that specializes in serving the African American community.

I know everyone may not be able to that so it’s important to make sure your therapist takes an approach that works for you (I prefer cognitive behaviorism) and has an understanding of what it’s like to live under white supremacy.

Being that I go to therapy..
It’s not about guidance but really about..
Coming to grips with shyt..
When you don’t necessarily have the tools..
Foresight..
On how to deal with certain situations..
But to speak with a forked tongue..
Now I can see were “guidance” comes into play..
Because it also allows an unbiased ear..
To help with realization and to help with..
Formulating goals and exercises to deal with demons..
Even with the people that we love the most..
Still find a way to judge us in our most down time..
Unbiased opinions..
Go along way..
So that helps..
But it has also made me be a better communicator..
To my loved ones..
Still don’t give a shyt about strangers tho:mjlol:
But one of my biggest demons was projection..
Wanting people to be *this* person..
I envisioned instead of looking at people..
For who they are and what made them..
I’m less judgmental and very laissez faire..
On certain situations..
People are going to do want they want:yeshrug:
But the biggest thing I think both..
Black men and women can benefit from therapy..
Is dealing with childhood trauma..
A lot of us are scared because someone said something..
Or..
Just the shyt we have seen in our homes growing up..
Let’s not even talk about how some of us saw..
Drug abuse
Crime
Death
Poverty
And how that has shaped many of us today..
Why some of our kids show complete disregard..
For human life..
It’s true..
We pass our demons on to our children..
Because again..
We didn’t have the necessary tools to..
Cope and manage hurt, anger and disappointments..
My therapist is in my age range..
Very accomplished sis that doesnt shy away from the truth...
The dynamic has shown me so much..
Especially communication with my wife..
