Hey guys‼️It’s been a while but I’m ready to get back in the game! I’m thinking about #writing a really epic #blog post about battling #depression & trying to maintain a serious #relationship (I’ve lived it, so I want to help other #couples).. What do you REALLY want to know about navigating a serious, long-term relationship or #marriage while also dealing with a mild to moderate mental illness (#anxiety, #depression, #ptsd)?🤔 * * * * * #mentalhealth #mentalillness #relationshipgoals #advice #feedback #blogresearch #love #blacklove #relationshipadvice #relationshipproblems

A very special THANK YOU to my first 3 donors who contributed to my campaign to open TX's first independently black owned children's boutique & resale shop. @velma_trayham is one of the most kind-hearted & genuine people I know, @ninabeth88 is the first of all my friends to donate & I met Mark Garvey during a very rough season in our lives and he became my brother in Christ. Thank you guys for believing in me and supporting my vision. 💝💙💜

Today I celebrate this man. In the hardest season of my life, he's been my strength & shown me love even when I push him away. I thank God for him. Happy Birthday sweetheart. I love you. ❤️

Learning to spend time absorbing the sunlight and enjoying nature is part of a healing journey that has been a long time coming. #latergram #officialchanelbelle * * * * * #ChanelBelle #ChanelBellePoetry #DeathGaveMeLife #God #Jesus #MyJourney #Love #Faith #blackgirlsrock #selflove #healing #nature #peace #recovery #mentalillness #mentalhealth #breakthestigma #selfcare #beyhive

I often feel like I cannot bear all God has laid upon me..but then I get reminded of this verse..and it reminds me that Jesus is my deliverer, defender & redeemer. Thank God for his Word.

July is Minority Mental Health Awareness Month. Given the state of emergency the Black community is in, I feel it only necessary to offer emotional support to my brothers and sisters and anyone else deeply affected by these tragedies. Regardless of your ethnicity, gender, religious or political affiliation, IT WOULD BE MY HONOR TO PRAY FOR/WITH YOU OR JUST HELP YOU SORT THROUGH YOUR THOUGHTS. In fighting this seemingly endless fight, we must remember to take care of ourselves, including our minds. This is not an easy plight and it can take a detrimental toll on you if you don't maintain proper self-care. Trust me, I know. (at Missouri City, Texas)
