Our emotions run rampant at times and understanding what that looks like for each of our family members is very important. Creating the space to have honest conversations about these emotional periods is empowering and sometimes life-saving.

Our communities, our families, our realities usually block out accepting there are mental health issues at play with the ones we love. There is also the taboo subject of self-medication as it relates to one’s attempt to deal with mental health issues. In this episode, Nafees and I have a candid conversation about this topic.
