Cradling The Mind In A Millennium Society

During Black History Month. I will be discussing some of the medical conditions, which seems to affect the African American communities at an alarming rate, such as HTN (Hypertension) Diabetes (I &II) Kidney Disease, and Gout.  
 
These questions I will explore as to why those particular medical conditions seem to plague that segmented population. Could it be an inactive lifestyle, hereditary, stress related inducers, or lack of exercise, consumptions of toxic food choices.  
 
And focusing more on mental health related issues that seem to be at the forefront of my concern.  
There seems to be an uprise of mental health cases that I am seeing, without no known etiology.  
 
If you suffer from any form of mental illness, now will be the time for you to find better coping mechanism stress, seek a counselor, who would be better tailored to properly diagnose and also treat.  
 
Everyone have a blessed day and always be kind to each other.
