"A relationship should never be two halves that make a whole, a relationship is two wholes that come together" - Dr. Alfiee 💎💎💎
there is not a person living who is whole. As a sentient being, It's not even possible. But I get the premise of the idea.
Great discussion! We need more discussions like this in our communities on a daily basis to normalize mental health.
👁WHY DON'T BLACK AMERICANS MOVE TO THE CARRIBEAN OR AFRICA.....PROBLEM IS (WHITE AND LITESKIN PEOPLE).
3:58 This part needs to be listened to and played on repeat until it’s not necessary.
Every open conversation like this is saving at least one person.
Agreed
👁WHY DON'T BLACK AMERICANS MOVE TO THE CARRIBEAN OR AFRICA.....PROBLEM IS (WHITE AND LITESKIN PEOPLE).
I love this brother his transparency so refreshing to hear
Women suffer in silence too, yes the conversation is necessary.
Nobody cares about black women. Its always poor black men. Black men are selfish and only care for themselves.
Everything that man said is true. Therapy IS such a white man concept. It doesn’t need to be, but we need more black therapists
I have a black therapist, as a matter of fact will see him Monday.
@@richardjones6152 me too, but they’re hard to find
It's TRUE. THERAPY for BM is his VILLAGE. Unfortunately, the Village is not Mentally well anymore.
@@richardjones6152 Courageous
There are lots of black therapists.
His honesty makes him so beautiful.
#iamenough
That's his scam lol. I'll cry if it means you want to f@+k 🙄... Don't fall for it
@Udokee sigh.... I'm saying that his faux vulnerability is a scam. It's number 3 on the list of panty dropper skills....
1. Fame
2. Money
3. Crying or Vulnerability....
Those are the cheat codes
I love being a black man! It’s hard asf tho but I wouldn’t change it.
You and Taraji are the pillars of mental heath in the culture. We're now starting to have these talks.
I need someone who looks at me the way Dr Alfiee looks at Jay.
Facts
We as Black people did not have the luxury of sitting back and assessing our feelings
We do we just choose to struggle as individuals instead of working as a group.
The core problem is people like you, that don't know what they're talking about and won't stop talking.
Nothing could be further from the truth. We need to heal otherwise we will harm ourselves or our loved ones through drugs or verbal/physical abuse.
It is an act of resistance and liberation to choose to take the time.

Thank you for this conversation Charlamagne, very much needed.
This was really, really great.
I’m really happy I watched this, I’m so appreciative of this discussion.
This was a high value discussion from both the doctor and the up and coming Dr.Jay Barnett, Reach one, Teach one, God Bless us All in our Mental Indevious of all race color creed and Ages this podcast is unfiltered unapologetic unadulterated!!!!💐
I love the comments @7:46 to the end of this segment.
I agree with Jay Barnett comments about joy and simplicity; Joy in Being. I feel grateful that Jay survived.
And Dr. Alfiee: accepting all emotions.
Black people weren't treated for ptsd from slavery and we pass these bad habits that live on to later generations
Love hearing this perspective. We need to talk about this more. ❤
Teach black men NOT to shoot other black men. why is this never discussed???????
Suicide and mens mental health in general need to be addressed and the stigma needs to go away- we lost the greatest power ranger a week or 2 prior Jason David frank to suicide, and now we lost Another Great Man due to Mental Health and the stigma we have about getting help
This is why cultures have "rights of passage" for the youth. This essentially tells them they are "enough." They cross a threshold and have to prove nothing to no one..
I pray he stays strong and realizes how valued he is.
Excellent discussion!🙏 Love it!
💯
As a blk/mixed race, female Artist who sufferers from depression etc - I can relate to this very well, even though I know yah'll are talking here about the experience from blk men's perspective.
Needed this
On the flip side, we as Black people (especially women), continue to tear each other down, instead of spreading a kind word and a smile. (It's true). Continue to Preach Brother Jay. It is really the small things to find joy in (hiking, walk, read).
At the first sentence of your comment, I immediately thought of the Shequanna Robinson situation- surrounded by people who harbored a secret hatred for her… 😢
So many of us don't treat each other down. Trauma/hurt gets passed on when not dealt with. We should stop speaking about ourselves as if we are built broken and airways tearing down. We can't fix what we won't face. The trauma is what needs to be named and faced.
@@shayboogie3682 Yes. She was surrounding by both men and women.
Glad this is on television 📺!!🔥🔥
I am an avid mental health awareness advocate and spoken word performer, and though this is tragic, I love this video so much. I travel the country trying to bring that awareness on stages, in classrooms, hospitals, and on my TH-cam channel, so I get excited when I see other advocates. 💚❤️
I'm Enough, being still to feel my feelings. Appreciate this Hell of Week #PromoteMentalHealth
Charlemagne, Lenard thank you and continue to speak life into therapy continue to make it important I don’t care how many people say they are sick of hearing it continue to do it.
Love ALL this! U R enough
Love this conversation! It is so important!
This was a wonderful discussion. I pray this discussion saves lives. Thank you both for the work that you do.
These condos are always great to hear om big platforms. Just really hope t see it translate into real life one of these days. Too many a see or even support content like this yet still be so brutally unkind to people
perfect timing
Great discussion!
This unfortunately won't get enough views.
Interestingly: Historically the BM/BP viewed THERAPY as his VILLAGE (extended family etc) BUT Unfortunately the Village has been Mentally Broken down. Therefore, he does not have any Support or directives about Life challenges anymore. So, he is forced to seek a New Type of Counseling a " "THERAPIST" that does not understand his thoughts, culture etc. Another perspective is CULTURE is Everything Not necessarily Color. That's My thoughts.
Charlemagne speaks like a loving father when they have these discussions. Thanks to all involved.
I've never lived my life on the guidelines of others thoughts or emotions. Not my spouse, parents, kids, employers....nobody but my own. I was born with the forthright knowledge on how to be and treat others. You have to take care of yourself, everything else will fall into it's rightful place.
Hey voice is so soothing! Good food for thought ❤
Preach!
Energy vampires. Great term.
Are people afraid of what people will say about them when they say how they feel because they are usually judgmental of others? Are we afraid that as much as we ridicule others the world will ridicule us?
In Japan they say 70 people a day mostly men commit suicide in 2015
This conversation is so powerful. Thank you.
Share this with as many black ppl as possible. We have to heal ourselves in lue of generational trauma and certain elements that affect us.
two great guests. i wasn't familiar with either one and am glad i am now.
I have never heard a black woman speak about black men this way💯👍
Healthy people are attracted to healthy people. Work on health and joy in self then introduce the healthy you to the healthy partner. Healthy people date healthy people. Do the work.
Excellent interview and timely as well.
This is GREAT!!! GREAT convo 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾 enjoyed the conversation
Thank you ! This is a great conversation
The fact that self and other care is corny to us feels heavy..great convo.
Love the discussion
Very good convo! 🙂🙏🏻🔥
Prepare for relationship challenges, financial problems, and life insurance issue. Being black is enough. Get help in private because once everyone knows, they know. You will regret that.
9:09 Colin Robinson, forreal.
Charlemagne we need you!!!! African American Awareness Agency out of Columbus Ohio, #aawellness . We are compassionate about male mental health in Columbus Ohio, we need your help!!!
We don't know what death is, we don't know anything about the after life,if there is. Don't let this world trick you into thinking that your not enough, ESPECIALLY if you have kids.
We don't even know if some of these people really off themselves for real. Let's all mind our own business, be positive and give grace.
We need to stop acting and talking as if suicide is okay.
The more you guys talk about this on your platforms the more you guys give grace to these people that didn't value there own life the more we normalize the situation.
Let's help each other instead of capitalizing or pretending.
The Bible says, the joy of the Lord is my strength .
This joy that I have , the world didn’t give and the world can’t take it away .
Therapy is great for having real life tools to deal with real life problems, but joy comes from the Lord!
Seek ye first the kingdom of heaven and all this( joy, peace , abundance of life ) will be added to you .
Wow. So glad this conversation is here to be listened to. Thank you. Hurts my heart. Respect too.

Some people can't even value humanity instead they value their individual community or tribe be it religion or race its a huge problem when you isolate your mind and spectrum of experience because not only are you dealing with generational often inherited trauma but being limited or confined to certain outside conditions also can effect the mind so it's important to try to obtain a worldly understanding opposed to the one done by indoctrination of the mind via nature nurture conditions. Of course awakening toward understanding there is that old saying ignorance is bliss because once you fully understand how things are and see them as such you become consciously aware to the bad and good aspects of reality from a more worldly understanding but bringing awareness to the wrong people at the wrong time can shatter their mind as well so it's important professionals be plenty and many in the mental health field 😉 and it be accessible for contact visits and every type of insurance to which we lack mental health providers private sector could use to stop being greedy and offer all insurances. Then there's the issue of finding the right one when we need more in the mental health field
And another part is to stop comparing ourselves to other, some people are comfortable and okay with 60k, everyone is not trying to be millionaires so we have to appreciate the blessings we have and only be around those who accept us as we are and not judge for who we're not to them.
i would love to have mr.barnett on my show, can anyone reply with his contact information?
This segment is highly insulting and undermining number one it does not need to be on social media platforms. Also if we as a collective group are serious our total mental health well being women should be in the room and discussion. Plus one of our elephants in the room a large number of the women that birth us stand with our enemy in this society.
Another point both men are talking about what we go through and face daily yet she brings up other groups of men.
I think until a man or person is comfortable, he can get help without telling people until he's ready, it's no one business so you don't have to share anything unless you want to
Feel the full range of emotions. Emotions are not the problem what you do after that emotion determined if you have created a problem. Problem solve emotions not act out on emotions.
I wonder how did my father and his father deal with their inner thoughts upsets feelings. Years and generations ago and did they ever think is there someone here for me?
We as black men are not capable of being vulnerable!
You are capable of anything, feeling ALL emotions, but society oppresses black men and labels them to make them feel like they cannot. You are extremely vulnerable to the world but not allowing yourself to be vulnerable to yourself, love and God is not healthy.
Not true bro, we have learn thats its ok to be. Its a mind set. I tried small nuggets of release at a time of vulnerability to become comfortable. Once I reached a point that I was comfortable in this space I realized that this was not so bad at all to point that I apologized to my sons that I didn't show them this. Now I'm a less angry dude because I'm able to release some steam over time. I' m under construction though fosho. Try small nuggets of releasing info to whoever you have around you you won't regret it.
No one elected you president of black men bruh. 😂 Speak for yourself.
SLIGHT CORRECTION:
We as black men *find difficulty in* being vulnerable!
Releasing limiting beliefs is the key to true liberation.
What if you did the work in After 10 years she tell you she feels cage in
I make sure to check in /check on my family! Can't stand when people say "men don't cry"., BS because it is written that Jesus Christ wept!
Facts bro
The way society sees a black men make it harder to get help
Where can I order that I am enough hoodie?
Excellent discussion 👏
Jay has such great skin.
THIS WAS REFRESHING! Wow!
@4:30
Thank you for discussion. Religion is a road block.
religion is the habit designed to serve what you believe to be your purpose. Some humans believe their purpose is to serve their creator other humans believe their purpose is serve themselves.
I love this interview. But in watching I had to ask myself, would I date a man (like him) that have openly admitted to have struggled with mental illness and suicidal thoughts? And my answer is no. Here in lies the problem. 🌹
Stay open Beloved - Mental illness is on a spectrum / degree. Education is important and so is safety. Years ago we didn't have this language and people made it work...
Sending you and yours the best energy possible...
Ha thanks for being honest, that’s the truth. It’s a perceived weakness
