Apparently Only Black Men Need Therapy

[Ya?]

Far more women are willing to seek therapy and have no problem acknowledging they need to seek it.

I would be willing to bet most relationships where counselling is suggested it is done so by women and opposed by men. many men feel hat they are above it.

therapy is not relegated to the crazy but extends to anyone that needs it to address any aspect of someone life.

So ya I agree with her a lot of men need therapy but refuse to go to therapy. This site is a clear example.

The comments are filled with women who clearly lack any accountability.

This is not an attack. Black men need therapy. If I ever hit it billionaire big I'm going to make sure poor black kids get access to shyt loads of therapy. Why do you think black boys keep shooting at each other over bullshyt? or why black men die of heart problems so much?

Generations of trauma and white supremacist attacks take their toll brother. She could have been more tactful but it's the truth. Women don't need it as much (even though they need it too)

women need it just as much, it’s not a competition but guys on this site are intellectually dishonest as always. Far more women are open to seeking therapy than men and we all know it hence why the responses.

Discussions like these are annoying because they don't ever really get down to the ROOT CAUSE of why we are like that.

In fact, telling men who have issues to "just go to therapy" or "open up" has actually become rather dismissive because:

talking to a therapist doesn't change the outside factors - whether its romantic relationships, relationships with friends, parents and kids - or forces like the economy, laws, police, etc. That can cause men - especially black men - pain.

But hey, as a guy, you just gotta take it head on be strong because only the strong survive

No but talking to a therapist can help you deal with the way you react to those outside factors. Having a therapist has helped me understand why other people take the actions they do and has made some of them less harmful/hurtful.

Opening up is because the only thing worse than opening up to a qualified stranger is getting psychology/therapy from an unqualified family member/friend.

Once I had money, most of my problems went away

My problems started when I had money people coming to me for handouts... people not understanding my drive and telling me to slow down and take it easy, people being threatened because of my drive, people thinking i was judging them for not being as successful as me. I had much fewer conflicts with the fam when I was working a dead end job for little money, family therapy was worth it.

Money fixes a lot financial woes but don’t fill an emotional void. Or else a lot of these celebs wouldn’t be as messed up as they are.
It’s the wrong attitude to have breh and that ish catches up to one way or the other.

If twitter had any bearing on real life Bernie Sanders would be president, Drake would be cancelled, and everyone would be gay.

Is she attacking Black men

Yes she is.

She painted black men as mentality ill unstable people that black women are forced to deal with like black women would be good if not for us.

Black women suffer from the same mental issues that black men deal with, she's acting like we aren't in the same boat.

what kind of double talk/gaslighting shyt is this
Black men and women..
Equally need to seek professional help..
Both genders are suffering from our parents PTSD..
Women most definitely need it..
Y’all deal with sexual harassment at young ages..
Not only that..
Some of y’all mothers project their failures on to y’all..
Especially when it comes to them failing with men..
Which in turn..
Y’all come at us with funky ass attitudes and acronyms..
Stop the bullshyt..
This is why the chasm is so big between the sexes..
Both sides out here..
Tweeting irresponsible bullshyt..
How are we supposed to move as a collective unit of people..
When everybody trying to one up..
Olympic oppression each other..
Both black men/women are fighting a war..
Nobody safe from..

It is wild how usually when sufferers of mental health conditions like Bipolar and ADHD are discussed, they aren't blamed for their own suffering.

The tweet doesn't even acknowledge that the black men with the mental health condition is the one suffering. Just a discussion on the people he is related to.

Also if black women were such great practitioners or connesuers of therapy services, then why are black women perpetuating intimate partner violence (according to 2012 CDC stats) more than black men?

Why are black boys suffering sexual abuse and physical abuse at higher rates then white counterparts? This abuse is occurring in households that are 78% led by single mothers.

Studies show conditions like ADHD and Bipolar Disorder go often unrecognized and untreated for years in all races.
And it is goes unrecognized at higher rates and goes unrecognized/ undiagnosed longer with black males.

And also in general, men with ADHD are more likely to be imprisoned and have shorter life expectancy and other negative health outcomes than the rest of the population.

Imagine me paying a random motherfukker to share my thoughts and feelings to.
