The stigma surrounding mental health issues in the African American community is especially thick, making it very difficult for persons suffering from depression to acknowledge it, let alone seek treatment. Some believe that therapy is only for wealthy, White people, or that you aren’t supposed to go outside the family with your problems.  In the faith-based community we are taught to rely on faith and prayer much more than therapy.  This mindset keeps us struggling more than we need to.  In fact, statistics show that African Americans are more likely to have depression for longer periods because we don’t receive proper diagnosis and treatment.  Host, J'son M. Lee, and author Imani Wisdom have both battled depression. Tune in to hear their stories.  Let's break the taboo!

In 1989, after graduating from Northwest High School in Indianapolis, Imani worked several factory jobs before she dedicated her life to care for her mother, grandparents, and aunt.  She stood by their side for fourteen years; including being a single parent to three (two boys and a girl).  After Imani's sister resumed the role as primary caregiver for their mother, Imani enrolled at a local community college to major in Paralegal Studies.  It was then, the four-time Dean's List student discovered her passion of writing.  She wrote essays, short stories, and poetries, and a few were published in the college paper and a local magazine.While being a Caregiver, Imani suffered the darkness of depression.  She described her emotions in a 2010 poem, Trapped With My Eyes Wide Open.
