I Think I'm Depressed

This Book can impact so many young lives from black communities especially the boys because at some point we get to find out the real impact our socialty has on us. It also reminds me of my young cousin who just got out of rehab for drug use in school. Not saying it's his fault but there is a huge gap of depression young people go through and mostly they are quiet about it until the last min when they end up in trouble or something worse. So I really admire Sbusiso for voicing out his own journey and struggle hoping that it will impact someone's life and show them that they are not alone.

I know I'm depressed, and now I'm loosing my mind. I tried getting help from the local gov hospital, but I was told they are on strike. I call to make sure, and they hang up on me. If it wasn't for my three girls, I would have put myself to rest long ago.

This book is about the one thing that most of us feel uncomfortable talking about. We don't understand it yet we all experience it. Depression is a mental illness that is the most neglected and this book is exemplary of what it means to face the music head on. Sbusiso explained his experience with depression so well in this book. I wish I had read it sooner.
