We explore the challenges Black men face regarding mental health and seeking therapy. The participants share personal anecdotes about their upbringing, the normalization of trauma within the Black community, and the difficulty in expressing emotions due to societal expectations and learned behaviors from previous generations. They emphasize the historic mistrust of medical systems and the lack of visibility of therapy in action as significant barriers to Black men accessing mental health support. Despite these obstacles, they advocate for the benefits of therapy, discussing how it can unlock potential rather than disrupt creativity and highlighting the importance of vulnerability, open communication, and breaking generational cycles of emotional suppression for personal growth and healthier family dynamics.
