My coloured mom after my therapist diagnosed me with clinical depression: don't let the devil work through you. Don't bring those spirits into my house. Come, lets pray. We'll pray it away. In Jesus Name, Amen
If we consider the trauma & depression our parents have went through and never had the opportunity to heal from because 'life must go on' and survival mode was their auto pilot, it makes it easier to understand (not accept or condone) why they are unsympathetic towards depressed kids. Labantu deadass saw their friends being killed but couldn't mourn/heal from that cos life simply had to go on! Let's break these curses guys 💔
@@youngbaby464 yes that's fair but when people don't address the difficulties that they've experienced this then affects their behaviours subconsciously, how they treat others and effectively results in generational trauma. If we practice being empathetic and understanding we help to break these patterns of behaviour and break the stigma surrounding seeking help for mental health ❤️
I didn’t find it funny at all. I thought he was highlighting an issue and holding the mirror up to people to show them how badly some parents manage depression.
My mom is not even that educated but damn the way she understands stuff is beyond amazing. She will even pamper you with food in bed thinking that you sick mara when you saying you're not then she starts with those short and warm encouragements that things will work themselves out. I honestly don't know what did I do to deserve such a parent😭❤️
It took forever for my parents to understand my depression. As a teenager they thought I was just being difficult and told me to get over it. As an adult my depression got very bad and their advice would be “exercise more, be happy!” Until it got so bad that I had a mental break down. I started doing therapy and started taking antidepressants, at first they were very against the medication, but as they saw me changing for the better they got on board. Now they bug me all the time to check that im still taking my meds.
This is really touching because it is a true reflection of what is happening in our society. What mental health needs is more unashamed conversations indeed, we still have a long way to go.
You are such an inspiration to us Kasi kids who want to do what you're doing. Looking at someone like you and all the great things you've achieved, I only have one thing to say, you are bloody incredible.
Mom: Sbongiseni why is it so dark in the house the neighbors will say we're practicing witchcraft Sbongiseni: I think you don't understand I'm depressed Mom:You're depressed so when you're depressed we dont eat? When I come into this room you say I'm toxic
My black mom would literally come snuggle with me and buy me all my favorite snacks and we would watch movies then she would schedule a phycologists meeting for me no matter what it costs 😂😂😂😌💜
It is really sad how misunderstood depression can be. Particularly in African families. You can be depressed for years right infront of them but they'll never see it until you die by your own hand. Only them will they finally read the suicide note you have been living right in front of them, the whole time. 😔😔
Please add the subtitles?My mom in Windhoek claimed she never heard of depression. It must be something new. Living in Europe I realized a lot of behavior I used to ascribe to laziness was associated with depression.😭😭 Good to finally see you Lasizwe.❤️
I was severely depressed at age 17 after losing my mom suddenly from a very aggressive pancreatic cancer . It was extremely difficult to get well again . Years later I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. One of the causes they think could trigger the disease is traumatic events . People should please take depression more serious and be kind to who suffers from it so they can heal again .
I must say although we make it a joke, it’s not. I can relate. Our parents don’t understand especially black parents. They’ll be more concerned about you doing house chores and cooking than your mental health. I actually ended up in VISTA for 3 weeks because of this.
The way this comes out right after my class and i had a whole discussion about what depression and how parents react is just yesterday!!! And it's Sooo truee
I know a black mom who went to therapy once and said they'd never go back because the therapist made her cry and so they must be evil. She decided from that day on to just stick to church. Anyway the reason she went to therapy was because her daughter was depressed and this was stressing her out because she must have been doing it on purpose to ruin her life. Her daughter was hoping the therapy session would at the very least educate her about mental health so she can deal with hers and stop demonizing the daughters
Me as much as most people can understand depression. Its no joke although your videos is funny. I went trough this as a child. A very dark place to be indeed
I'm glad you pushed through and got help, today is "Not on my watch Thursday" in RSA ❤ I hope you doing good today and helping raise awareness on mental health
@@modisedaeswatiniprincess6944 thanks yeah. I was in rehab for two weeks. Had severe bullying in school. I raise awareness as much as i can. Married and have a beautiful son❤️
🤣🤣🤣🤣 I've never laughed as much as I did when u did #ColouredPeople 🤣🤣🤣🤣.. Was abit passive compared to how we really are but well done Sizwe. Loved it. My parents would've said "Depressed vi wat, Kom k## Praati"
That must be a Constantia white mom, because my afrikaans parents reacted more like the coloured mom. When I said I was depressed and wanted to see a therapist they said I must get over my “kinder kak” and be happy.
Lasizwe big fan from Kenya .. Pls put English subtitles on your videos... This video was so on point tho .... A lot of African parents dont acknowledge depression is a real disease .
It took me asking my mom to organise therapy and being on anti-depressants for her to take me seriously because she'd always say "talk to me" when I asked for that, lol ma' am you didn't create that enviroment for me please. I'm so thankful to God rn cause she understands that I'm a person who needs her space, I helo her around the house voluntarily because now she understands. To all who are going through that, love & light lovelies❤, there's always lighr at the end of some tunnel it may not be at home but somewhere.

This truly depicts how far we still have to go when it comes to addressing mental health issues in our country..
I know😭😭💔 they just don't understand
I agree
Sadly, the older generations do not believe in ‘depression’. They simply say people are moody/rude/lazy/unfriendly. 😟
Unfortunately
Luckily that is slowly getting worse or better idk
I once told my mom tht I was depressed when I was in high school and she said "but I bought you a blazer" smh thts black parents for you💔😂

I went through depression my colored mom was like wtf? Is that? And started saying it's the devil

It’s an issue unfortunately
Colord mom's really don't know the meaning of the word depression, when the lights of they come in and go why are the lights off
To be honest the black mom scene, Lasizwe killed it. He perfectly depicts a black woman. Excellent acting skills.

This sounds like something my mom would say 🥴
Yeah that's why we call them black parents 😂

Your mom and my mom should meet 😂
I like the humor in this but also how lasizwe is addressing a serious issue 💜

"uselfish" "ufana nobaba bakho" that is so relatable when it comes to South African kids😷😐
Make that it's related with most African parents and not just in South Africa
I wish the black mom would also speak English...... you got international fans, now I’m depressed 😪😪

The truth is our Mothers don't want to understand how deep we are depressed as young people.We are facing a lot of things while trying to show up.
