Over the past few years, I've learn to produce podcasts on my own. In diary entry 140, I lay out a few things that I important that I speak on.

This is a good conclusion to my conversation surrounding my mental health from the totality of my podcast and healing journey.

I unpack my past diagnosis with mental health, things I've learned about mental health vs mental illness, living with depression and anxiety and overcoming all of them and still thriving. Recorded in March of 2022, a great reflection on my podcast and mental health challenges.

Nearly at the midway mark of the final season, in this diary entry, I recognize that I've gained community, life-long friends, & the necessary support to start thriving.

Diary of a Mad Black Man is coming to an end. This podcast and unexpected creative journey has been healing, therapeutic, and completely changed my life. I love myself unconditionally now and I also have to admit medication has helped. I am ready to focus on something new, something different. 

I'm glad that I am starting to live life on my own terms. Yes an end to a chapter is here, but a new chapter is beginning.

This diary entry is a deep reflection on the idea of "Letting go of the pain" I recorded on February 7th 2022. So this episode is really a reflection on my life from October/November 2021 - February 2022.  

In this vulnerable, raw diary entry, I was realizing I need to truly let go of the pain from my past, the pain that I carry and accept what is. The pain of my grandmother no loner being here...

I reflected on this idea of letting go of who I thought I was supposed to be and accepted who I am. Letting go of the need to control the world around me and focusing on a controlled environment.

What's up! In today's diary entry, I give you all an update on my mental health journey with medication after 9 weeks of taking Lexapro; a daily medication for depression and anxiety.

After listening, you'll have a better understanding of why its important to put yourself first and believe in you; trusting and believe that everything will be alright. It can be tough to make decisions in life that you NEED to do, especially when they are not what you WANT to do. 

Recently I have had to make decisions that are best for my mental health, although I did not want to make them deep down inside. As important as money is to my life and mental wellness, my mental wellness still takes a priority over money and anything else. It's literarily a matter of life or death for me if I don't.

Its the end of 2021 and I feel like I'm still processing 2020 in many ways but if you listen to this episode, you will know why this is the final episode for season 6 and I will be taking hard break from podcasting for some time. 

All I can say now is I will be back with new episodes sometime in the future. 

I hope you would follow/subscribe to my podcast here to know when I return. 

Be blessed, be kind, and remember, love involves action... especially self love.

Hey Everyone!

Welcome back to another great diary entry. A few major developments have happened since I recorded and released the previous episode. This has caused me to change a few things around in the production schedule however, we are not stopping! 

I just wanted to tap in with you all briefly as I continue to change and develop things moving forward. More importantly I have been healing in a different space, which has been very refreshing lately. I am entering a new chapter, and it is being further solidified, it's all about me.

Until the next diary entry, be blessed, be safe and spread love.
