BLXCK - Life in between the spaces | Therapy

  • Summary

  • In this deeply personal second episode of "BLXCK," I take you through a significant milestone in my life: my first therapy session. This episode isn't just about the experience within the therapist's office; it delves into the intricate tapestry of reasons that led me to this point and the cultural and personal barriers that made this journey a challenging one.

    For years, my beliefs as a black Jamaican man and the stigmas attached to mental health in our community stood as silent gatekeepers, influencing my views on seeking help. In this open-hearted discussion, I unravel these layers, exploring how cultural identity, societal expectations, and personal skepticism often deter us from stepping into the therapeutic world.

    Join me as I share the revelations, struggles, and insights from this pivotal experience. It’s a story of overcoming deep-seated apprehensions, breaking through the stereotypes associated with therapy, especially in the black and Caribbean communities, and the profound impact of taking that first step towards emotional and mental wellness.

    This episode is not just my story; it's an invitation for reflection, a call to reshape our narrative around therapy, and a beacon of hope for anyone who's ever found themselves hesitating at the threshold of seeking help. Let's embark on this journey of healing and understanding together
