"Meri Danquah, a "working-class broke," twenty-two-year-old single mother, began to suffer from a variety of depressive symptoms after she gave birth to her daughter, which led her to suspect that she might be going crazy. Understanding the importance of strength in a world that often undervalues black women's lives, she shrouded herself and her illness in silence and denial. But eventually, she could no longer deny the debilitating sadness that interfered with her ability to care for her daughter, to pursue her career as a writer, and to engage in personal relationships." "This book is a testimony to the universality of the severity of depression in any culture. Danquah writes with brutal honesty as she confronts her traumatic childhood events - sexual abuse, neglect, and loss - that lie beneath her grief. This is not simply a memoir about depression, it is a meditation on courage and a litany for survival."-- Jacket. 600 10 Danquah, Meri Nana-Ama|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ names/n97048597|xMental health.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00006455 600 17 Danquah, Meri Nana-Ama.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/391490 650 0 Depressed persons|zUnited States|vBiography.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009123204 650 0 African American women|vBiography.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2008117552 650 0 Women.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85147274 650 0 African Americans.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85001932 650 7 Mental health.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1016339 650 7 Depressed persons.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 890902 650 7 African American women|xBiography.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1424458 650 7 Women.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1176568 650 7 African Americans.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 799558 650 7 African American women.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/799438 650 7 Women.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0001509 650 7 Womyn.|2homoit|0https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0001516 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 7 Biographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919896 655 7 Autobiographies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1919894 655 7 Autobiographies.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2014026047 901 MARCIVE 20231220 994 C0|bRID
