We are pleased to have Award Winning Author H.D. Hunter on the show to have a discussion surrounding mental health. H.D. Hunter is the author of the book Torment: A Novella which gives us a glimpse of the waves of emotions a young man goes through trying to understand his mental state during a very trying time in his life. We talk about the inspiration that brought H.D. to write a book surrounding mental health in African American families. We discuss the stigmas associated with mental health and the link between mental health and drug use, petty crime, and the need to be seen. We dive into the family dynamic that plays a role in how mental health is viewed and the underlying fear of actually accepting the idea that mental health actually exists. We talk about what it means to be broken and how you can potentially find beauty in the broken pieces.
