Meek Mill shared a message about therapy for the black community. Check it out below.
‘Draya Michelle hopped in the comments and said: ‘Facts. And make it covered by our Insurance too. 👏’
One other follower posted this: ‘How about we start normalising and glorifying therapy and mental and physical well-being in our lyrics! ✊🏾’ and a commenter wrote: ‘🔥🔥🔥 whether it’s a therapist life coach, a pastor, spiritual advisor the healing is in the release and sometimes it’s OK to talk to people other than family!’

A follower said: ‘Yes!!! Let’s all start by stopping the name calling… it’s not ok. “Crazy”, you’re toxic, “drama” making people feel “less than” makes people not want to participate #stayunderconstruction,’ and someone else posted this: ‘It’s cool AF helped me so much 🙌🏽 doing the self work and focusing on mental health is so important❤️.’
Someone else said: ‘Normalize the fact that everything doesn’t have to be “cool” just for black people to do it. We can do things simply because they’re good for us. Needing there to be a “swag factor” on everything we do really holds us back.’
A follower posted this: ‘The growing amount of black therapist is how, especially black male therapist. A lot of us don’t wana tell white people our problems.’
A follower said: ‘Black people have to stop listening to others when they say therapy for the weak. That’s the problem.’
One fan posted this: ‘Ppl getting their body done and really need their brain 🧠 done 🤯’
A commenter said: ‘Therapy doesn’t need to be “cool”, cause for most ppl it’s definitely not anything fun. It needs to be normalized tho & not so easily dismissed as weird or taboo,’ and someone else posted this: ‘It definitely is. Just not the psychotropic drugging “therapy” that these psychiatrists & therapists use to resolve our trauma. A drug will never resolve it. So that wicked route should end.’
