I'm Tired of Being a Strong Black Woman. | Kaisha Creates

[@tf5655]

If someone else calls me a strong Black woman, I will scream. Even when my husband died, I was told, “you're a strong Black women” code for stop the mourning and get back to work. Ugh

[@SistarExum]

So sorry for ur loss and real DISRESPECT!

[@TeeDaDream]

Society has made it normal for African American women to be strong and independent. In truth that’s not in your nature as a women. This might offend some people but the reality is that women were designed to be delicate like flowers, soft by nature. It’s up to us men to protect you from the hardships of the world, within our power that is, these days in society things are backwards.

Your strength comes from your imagination. Let that be your guiding light... Create.

Can definitely relate. After being diagnosed with PPD after having my baby I was ashamed to have to be on medication. Practically nobody checked on me and even the hospital treated me terribly. When I think of what I've been through it's a miracle.

[@TiffanyJohnson-gx3ko]

You have really described things I go through. thank you so much for sharing. It means a lot and I hope you are healing ❤

[@colstonlchinese]

I pray that GOD supply the needs you expressed in this video. The strong Black womanism is exhausting. I respect you electing to share this aspect of your journey. I too felt lonely during the shutdown.

[@michaelharmon9231]

Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing your heart with us 🙏🏾

[@Emma_Rose_Brooks]

Really beautiful. Thank you for letting us in and I hope you found this healing. I went through a similar situation when it came to getting medicated for my depression. Looking back I should’ve been on antidepressants when I was a teenager, but I had the constant story running in my head that if I get on meds that means I am sick and a failure. Been on medication since 2016, and it has helped me for the better. We all have different ways to find our peace. I’m glad you’re on the path you believe is healthy for you right now. 💜

[@Neah1987]

Hi sis it is buren strong black women

[@EmorySimsDrEmoryCarlSims]

I don't know. When I was growing up back in the 1960s, life for black people was incredibly different than today while I was growing up in Jacksonville, Florida. We didn't have the issues that black people are having today. Things were far different when I was growing up. Thanks to my mother, I had a great childhood growing up. I had no growing up issues like for example, being rebellious smoking marijuana like all the other kids that hit my high school in 1971 when I was a junior in high school. I don't know. For some reason, I was born and wired to not go along with the crowd. I have always been a loner and an introvert in life. All throughout school from elementary school through college, I never got in trouble with anyone. I am that same way today. My philosophy is that if you want to get to know a person very fast just ask them about their childhood and what life was like as they were growing up. Yes. My parents went through a divorce when my grandmother died in 1961. When my mother got custody of all eight of us, my life has been smooth sailing since then. My dad didn't believe in education because he couldn't see the value of an education because he was raised by his sister and not by his mother which makes a difference in a child't life. He only had a second grade education. Nobody watched over my dad to make sure he went to school to get an education. My mother was the high school beauty queen and graduated from high school. She married my dad to get out of the house. But my mother believed in the value of an education and when she bought my a trumpet, that really made a difference in my life at the time because that help increase my confidence and my self esteem. That trumpet help me get into college, and now over the years I have earned four degrees including a doctorate and now I am about to earn my fifth degree in accountancy. So, thanks to my mother, I have had a great childhood and have fund memories of it. This is not to prop me up. I am just sharing my life experience with you to give you a perspective about life experiences from someone's else experience. Take care, and may God bless.

[@simoneaustin8076]

take care of you sweetheart. if god knows you have enough burden on your shoulders why would god give you more? you have to be able to feel at peace and comfortable in order to go to the next level.

Strong just doesn't waiver...

[@kokoniqueful]

I noticed that the comments made by males here, all tell you to be strong or offer anecdotes on how to be stronger. Did y’all even listen to the video? She’s tired of putting up with never-ending stress, Doing it all alone, And being told to be strong while carrying exorbitant weight on her shoulders

[@nyc4life448]

Right, the "strong black woman" is weak. She pretends to be strong. When you hear black women calling themselves a strong black woman, that's just their way of coping with the pain, stress, and anxiety, on the verge of having a panic attack. They can't take it anymore. Their weak and they need help. They got too much on their plate.

[@seanberry2728]

I subscribed, because your interesting. I’m not a woman. I hope that’s ok.

[@Nikkychosen1]

You mean a strong mixed woman❤

[@KaishaCreates]

I mean exactly what I said actually.

[@qjc2300]

Is that a wedding on your finger?

[@somaspecialist]

Looks like that rent increase kicked in....

[@silkysmooth-vk2ux]

Hahaha

[@richardlawrence3770]

Sister study the lives of the Black women warriors like Farrakhan's wife.Dr.King's wife.Malcolm X's wife.Marcus Garvey's wife etc.Adopt their coping skills since they thrived through greater stress than most Black women ever know.
