WE ARE A COMMUNITY #anylittlethingpodcast #blackmentalhealth
But we are often unknown to each other. Yes, that sounds like a contradiction, but if you think about it, it is often true.
The stigma of mental illness keeps us from sharing ordinary, but sometimes stressful experiences.
There is no sports bar with a big screen TV showing insightful stories on mental health, but there can be a safe place to connect with good information, resources and the voices of people like ourselves. We are working with social media professionals to create an online presence for “Push2 Open”. This is a place where clinicians can share culturally informed insights on decisions to seek treatment. “Push2 Open” project proper is composed of three components: a character in a dramatized episode, a clinical response to the character’s situation, and an opportunity to connect with behavioral health resources. Making the decision to connect with a therapist is the goal.
Making a decision to participate in therapy will likely be a process for many of us. While making that decision, having a place that we can return to, view another person’s journey and connect with that person may make the decision easier.
Push2 Open” is not a place for online therapy. It is a place where the stigma of therapy can be dismantled and men in need of help are encouraged to find the help they need.

These are the triggers that our black men are dealing with in their personal lives everyday!

Prevention #mentalhealthawarenessmonth #Push2open
Early intervention is critical. Outreach must be tailored specifically for African American men and health education must be delivered by trusted messengers.
• Develop and support mental health promotion/intervention initiatives that are specifically geared to African American males.
• Develop early intervention strategies for men who are vulnerable to environmental and psychosocial factors that predispose them to self-destructive behaviors.
• Suicide prevention efforts should be evidence-based and comprehensive enough to address the complex dynamics of suicidal behaviors.
Mental health is a taboo subject for African American
men. In general, there is strong stigma associated with
mental health problems and illnesses. Issues related to
culture, masculinity, and the socio-political environment keeps men (and others) from tackling problems
related to mental health.
Black men SPEAKING OUT LOUD!
“We are not supposed to seek help
for our mental illness.”
“There is still a lot of stereotyping
of black men in all of the medical
professions.”
“We have a problem asking for
help-especially from folks who we
think are the reasons for our
mental illness.”
“We are responsible for our
mental health, but we need help
and support.”
“No Black Man in America is ever
mentally healthy.”
“Who really, really gives a damn
about the Black man in America?”
