Yo, I feel this heavy. Being Black and holding onto your faith can feel like you’re carrying double weight sometimes, especially when it feels like people either don’t understand or don’t care. I remember growing up and feeling outta place even within my own community. But something I had to learn was, just like our ancestors, faith was the thing that kept us grounded, even when nobody else believed in what we did. Hold onto that, for real. And if you’re feelin’ alone, maybe try finding a space where you can vibe with others who get you. Your faith is powerful—don’t let anyone take that from you.

Oh man, that’s rough… 😔 I totally get what you’re saying about not knowing if you should tell someone. On one hand, telling someone could help, but on the other, I’ve heard people say it just makes things worse. But honestly, if it’s been going on for months, maybe ignoring it isn’t working? Like, sometimes it just doesn’t stop on its own, u know? Maybe just talk to someone you trust, see what they say, and maybe they can help handle it without making it a big deal. It’s not okay that you have to deal with that, tho… no one should
