Podcast about Black Mental Health?

The Black Mental Health Podcast is dedicated to understanding and unraveling the mental struggles in the Black community. It showcases real life stories to bridge the gap between people who feel alone in their struggles and the solutions to help them heal. With the stigma, cost and quality of therapy being major barriers, black people are left to deal with mental health issues on their own. The Black Mental Health Podcast is here not as a replacement to therapy but as an alternative place where people share therapeutic stories. Therapy is necessary but sometimes hearing someone else’s story is therapeutic enough. The conversations range from stress, suicide, anxiety, depression, therapeutic techniques, coping skills and general information for individuals to start their healing journey. The podcast is spearheaded by Reginald A. Howard whose had and still having his own battle with mental health. From cutting himself to multiple suicide attempts, to preventing the start of a drug addiction after a traumatic car accident, he knows first-hand a few of the many mental sufferings that black people go through internally. He uses the podcast to deal with his own issues by helping, healing and hearing others.
