About

Women go through suicidal ideations and self-inflicted wounds daily. None of this is spoken on the level it should be. Black women are considered even less when it comes to suicidal ideation and attempts. Factors such as the weight of life that we carry (work, family life, just being a Black woman), domestic violence, and pressure can cause our knees to give out. The expectation is that we are strong, and there is no other way to be. You would be surprised how many Black women show strength, but inside feel weak and drained. We are screaming, but we're seen as being angry, violent, have a nasty attitude, and trashy, when we're asking for the attention and help we need the only way we know how. The next time you feel a Black woman is being harsh, ask her how she's honestly doing. You would be surprised how mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually drained she is. She's falling into the abyss and feels no one will catch her. Black women face suicide more than anyone realizes. I hope this book opens doors and brings awareness and necessary attention. I tried 3 times. How many others have walked in my shoes?
