I gave up my daughter for adoption when I was 19. We found each other years later. We spent 10 years together. She moved here and there and found a good man. They both moved back home, bought a house......then, one night she got pulled over and taken to jail, where she ended up hanging herself!!! I had no idea she was Bipolar until later. She was not taking medication as prescribed. She never told me about her condition. It still feels unreal after all these years. Please take it seriously!!!

Although I understand that it may be a hard watch, it is relatable for the fact that this is someone's situation. I know someone personally just like the main character and watching this really helped me to understand their circumstances and train of thought a little more.

S/O to the legend T.C Carson, as well as the cast that actually looked very good on screen. As for the handling of the subject matter, personally I think it is very insensitive and crude to have this movie exist, while as an African-American community, we strive for PROPER representation and dialogue surrounding the mental health sigma.

This movie essentially waters down a serious diagnosis, gives an unrealistic treatment scenario and ends up having the viewer borderline scared of a black man with the particular disorder.

What about the spectrum? What about true long term community support? And the resolution at the end served no true help towards a person who may be looking at this film to gain a shred of hope for understanding.

This film set the conversation back. Significantly. I wish Mr. Carson had spoken up more in the development because his efforts were dually noted as a compassionate and well spoken therapist.

However, overall this film is a lewd portrayal of what many black men facing this affliction or anything similar face. If you're watching this for educational purposes...please don't take it to heart and search for a different example.
