The reason we are like this is because you can’t cry in the middle of a battle. What good is crying when the thing making you cry is still attacking? I’m not saying it’s right but the mentality is there for a reason.A lot of people raise Black kids and then don’t mentally prepare them for the world they are walking into. A world that is founded on hatred of their very existence and they get into and are unable to cope. So some take opt-out of the system.I’m not trying to zero on this part but to say we don’t focus on our issues is kinda like victim blaming to me. We have to deal with the brunt of this entire government and if we don’t handle it properly it’s still our fault?Therapy is expensive. There’s the cost component to therapy and also the war component to it. You can’t sit and reflect on your emotions when the bullets are still flying.
