Description
 
Mental health is a frequently overlooked aspect of African American health care, especially among women. This guide offers advice for helping African American women handle the stresses of everyday life and anticipate and prepare for long-term mental health. While acknowledging the myth of the "strong black female," it stresses the importance of maintaining support systems and developing self-esteem to combat self-hatred. Also included are tips for negotiating the mental health system and understanding various types of treatments, as well as advice for instilling good health habits in the next generation.
