Check on Black Men!! Mental health status

[NeilCartwright]

There i said it. I’m not spewing c00n this or bedwench that, but black men go thru it every day. It’s tough out here. Financially especially

I’ve had a few blessings. The military gave me a couple years of a livable wage and I’ll get a disability check once I leave this summer but at what cost? I know a few brehs who’ve killed themselves out here. Some with PTSD. Some with drug and alcohol problems. Rehab, mental health institutions/classes. Myself included!

Sad as hell. I say I count my blessings bc I got brehs who didn’t even have the 3 year run I did. And they’re going thru it.

I say that to say check on a Black Man today. You might be the push he needs to keep going. We got the weight of the world on our shoulders and the deck stacked against us as it is

Tough financially for most men these days. You right about the whole ptsd thing. shyt scary especially going thru something like that. Takes a tough individual to be able to go thru that without any side effects. Definitely gotta count your blessings cuz even tho things may be rough at one point, your blessings got you where you're at and will get you where you need to go.

Very, very bad attitude.

Humble yourself - YOU are the one who did not read & comprehend the OP then respond accordingly.
Or
Perhaps you did and still chose to reply the way you did.

You aren't a black man who is subjected to the issues that many black men are...in the womb...in formative years...into adulthood...to the grave.
Your presence isn't even warranted in this thread. You are contributing nothing but dismissiveness.

I replied the way I did cuz it's my opinion.


You can miss me with that issues from the womb to the grave analogy cuz every man has their problems, whether big or small. I understand what he was trying to say and I gave my opinion on the financial issues affecting all men. Whether others care or not isn't really of concern. I do agree with the military thing but it doesn't just affect black men. This them against the world attitude seems like a defeatist mentality. As if the most minor problem as black man faces is more important than the most major problem any other man faces. Not every non black man has a perfect life. Mental health is a serious issue and to think that one group of people is more important than any others because of so called issues is wrong in my opinion. But I'll let y'all continue your discussions and pray that anyone with mental problems are able to overcome them or seek the help they need cuz killing yourself is definitely not the answer.
