I focus on Black women's mental health and understand the taboo of seeking help or discussing unhealthy family behaviors. You hold it in for years, then realize you're suffering from sleep disturbance, loss of appetite, isolation, low energy, and sadness. You're masking—changing your natural personality to conform to social pressures.
