Black Pain

Terrie Williams

In Black Pain, Terrie has inspired the famous and the ordinary to speak out and mental health professionals to offer solutions. The book is a mirror turned on you. Do you see yourself and your loved ones here? Do the descriptions of how the pain looks, feels, and sounds seem far too familiar? Now you can do something about it. Stop suffering. The help the community needs is here: a clear explanation of our troubles and a guide to finding relief through faith, therapy, diet, and exercise, as well

I saw you on PBS and wanted to get information on how to help someone who suffers from bipolar disorder and delusions. My sister is very bad off and is taking Xanax for her disorder. It is very difficult to get the doctors to really do anything to help her. "She needs to take the come in before we can do anything" is the reply I get when asking for help for her. When she is lucid enough to go for help, they just give her medication and send her on her way. What else can I do to help her as we live in two different states and I am not close enough to keep an eye on her? Please help us.

The young man you featured on "Out of the Shadows" on PBS was named ?Jahwe?. I would like to learn more about him. You stated that he wrote a book. He really touched my heart. Pleas post more about him. Posted by: Guest | May 21, 2008, 8:03 pm

Dear Terri Thanks for speaking out , Clearly & Loudly. You're right we have numbed ourselves sometimes to the point of unconciousness. I am thankful you are speaking at churches. I am an ordained minister who is also committed to our healing and to creating conversations that will open these old covered over wounds to the air. God Bless you and forward your mission.

Through an uncolored lens, Terrie Williams takes a candid look at how depression, sadness, rage, and emotional suffering attacks the vitality and well being of many African Americans. In her book, Black Pain, she extends an olive-key of comfort, hope, and help to those who have ever felt bound by emotional torment. To anyone who has ever experienced bouts of distress, hurt, despair, and brokenness? Black Pain offers an open and transparent journey to recovery, emotional restoration, and wholeness. This is a great read for anyone who is on the front line or on the side line of this ten letter word called depression. Dr. Bridget Isaac, Atlanta. GA.

Depression attacks your confidence and makes you question you self worth. In this world of "abundance", depression can make you feel isolated and that success only happens for others, not you. Terrie starting a dialogue about this subject, particularly for Black women, is brave, necessary and something to be celebrated. Posted by: M. Phillips | January 2, 2008, 9:18 am
