The “Cry No More” rapper revealed that he began therapy two years ago after realizing how numb he was to all the death he experienced. He was diagnosed with PTSD during this time, which pushed him to make the necessary changes in his life.
He also stated that he’s been providing free treatment for the children in his community who face the same struggles.
“I want to be one of those people that puts resources in my community where you just don’t feel alone,” G Herbo explained. “I put like over 150 kids through free therapy already.”
The discussion concluded with G Herbo emphasizing the importance of destigmatizing therapy in the Black community.
“That’s why I speak about it the way I do. Like, focus on destigmatizing the fact that therapy’s not cool in the Black community. I feel like if everybody thought like that, the world would be a much better place — especially my city, for sure,” he said.
