- As the nation recognizes Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, Tampa Bay mental health expert and advocate, Natasha Pierre, is using her story and expertise to close the gap when it comes to disparities in mental health care.
It doesn't matter what race. People just are turning Psychotic. Anyone paying attention how some people drive. Driving like the have a Death Wish.
I was denied accommodations for my learning difference when trying to establish support with the courts for my kids. After a virtual hearing that I didn’t notice had errors that resulted in -10K I was told I would have to get an attorney that would charge me 10K to have them correct the errors, it took me years of trying to do it myself & was just ignored. I was given the run around for something that has a state guideline & could have been easily corrected. Sad to know it’s not equal justice for all.
To appeal I would need to do an initial brief, try doing that with dyslexia & no transcripts from the hearing. My ex’s attorney knew of my challenge & took advantage of it by trying to hide & mislead the court. I noticed the error but someone with a worst LD might not & that is what bothered me the most, that others are taken advantage of. Yes, I paid someone else to recalculate & confirmed it was off but it didn’t matter at that point, I didn’t have the money to show the truth & unfortunately you need that for justice.
Minority mental health month. 😅. Smh
That's funny they changed the headline from mental health in minorities to just mental health😂.
