Women go through suicidal ideations and self-inflicted wounds daily. None of this is spoken on the level it should be. Black women are considered even less when it comes to suicidal ideation and attempts. Factors such as the weight of life that we carry (work, family life, just being a Black woman), domestic violence, and pressure can cause our knees to give out.

Produktbeschreibung
Women go through suicidal ideations and self-inflicted wounds daily. None of this is spoken on the level it should be. Black women are considered even less when it comes to suicidal ideation and attempts. Factors such as the weight of life that we carry (work, family life, just being a Black woman), domestic violence, and pressure can cause our knees to give out. The expectation is that we are strong, and there is no other way to be. You would be surprised how many Black women show strength, but inside feel weak and drained. We are screaming, but we're seen as being angry, violent, have a nasty attitude, and trashy, when we're asking for the attention and help we need the only way we know how. The next time you feel a Black woman is being harsh, ask her how she's honestly doing. You would be surprised how mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually drained she is. She's falling into the abyss and feels no one will catch her. Black women face suicide more than anyone realizes. I hope this book opens doors and brings awareness and necessary attention. I tried 3 times. How many others have walked in my shoes?
Autorenporträt
I am a mother, Navy veteran, Doctorate student (Clinical Psychology), author, walking in ministry and evangelism, teacher of youth at church, lover of museums, aquariums, and zoos, and cooking connoisseur. I have an Associate's degree in Information Technology and a Bachelor's degree in psychology. I started writing poetry at six years old. I entered my first contest when I was eight years old, when we still had Poetry.com. I won my first contest at ten, which surprised me. I have loved literature, English, and reading. I also love other forms of writing and poetry, such as African-based writing, mythology, and haiku. There is an affinity to math, science, and history mixed in, so I'm a conglomerate of many when it comes to education. I enjoy watching Kdramas, natural disaster movies, romantic comedies, and anime. I'm into video games, cars, and motorcycles. I'm an omnivert, some days leaning more towards the extrovert side, other days more towards the introvert.
