Depression doesnât always look like what youâve been told. In Black & Brown communities, it often shows up as:
đĄ Anger
đ´ Chronic fatigue
𤢠Stomach issues
đź Overworking just to avoid stillness
đ Smiling in public, crashing in private
These are survival patterns. Not personal failures. At Bright Stone Psychiatry, we understand how cultural expectations, generational stress, and daily microaggressions can shape your mental health. Weâre here to support your healing, whether that looks like medication management, coaching, or simply being heard without judgment.
This Minority Mental Health Month, letâs normalize rest, regulation, and asking for support. You donât have to carry it alone. Visit BrightStonePsychiatry.com
