You really thought this was gonna work?

You deserve this.

He never wanted to marry you anyway.

Look at you.

Look at you.

Just dumb, dumb, standing
here with a cake in your hand.

You thought he was faithful?

You are so delusional...

You thought you were a wife?

He's always been this way.

You thought he loved you?

You thought he was only
going to stay with you?

He's for everyone.

You really thought this was gonna work?

How can you be so stupid?

Oh!

Oh, shit!

What the.

Wait.

Yo.

I can't I can't move.

We fucking glued together.

What?

This shit hurts.

Oh, shit.

No shit, man.

Come on, come on.

This way.

Come on.

David, Come on, please

Come on, come on.

You don't remember how you treated you?

There.

Where the hell have you been?

I've been calling and texting

He did it, Mom.

I'm tired.

Been watching Zoe all damn day.

She didn't want to be put down.

He brought a woman into her home.

And they did it.

In our house.

I got him though.

I got him.

What the hell did you do?

They want each other?

Well, now they're stuck together

Charlie

Oh, please

What you need to do
is make everything right.

You have two kids

You can't throw 17 years of marriage away.

I can't do this.

I can't do this anymore.

I need you to take the baby.

I can can't.

I can't, Ma

You can and you will.

I am not raising his kid.

Charlie!

Don't you walk away from me

Mom, please.

I will send money for Zoe

You take your baby

Your father would never have treated
me the way your husband treats you.

I've raised you better than this.

And that's because you
let him run all over you.

I won't let my husband run all over me.

I will never take that type of abuse from
my husband like you did with my father.

Bye, Mom.

Charlie!

Please.

Okay, so.

Bye, Sophie.

See you at school tomorrow.

Put your seat belt on.

What took you so long?

Stuff.

Are you okay?

Mm hmm.

Hmm.

What what time is it?

Mom, are we going to Daddy's birthday?

You know what?

He's not answering his phone either.

We're gonna do something
a little different this year

Different?

Different like what?

Different.

Mom, seriously, are you okay?

That's my bed.

Um,

baby girl, I'm going to go out

and get us some bathroom
things and maybe some makeup.

Okay, but how long are we staying and why?

Mom.

Mom.

Mom.

Hello, Mom.

I'm hungry.

I'll order room, service, okay?

Give me a second.

I'll be right back.

Do not leave this room.

Okay.

All right, I love you.

I love you, too.

I'll be back.

Don't go anywhere.

All right.

Oh, God.

Uh.

Pizza.

I'm so sorry, baby.

Uh, yes, Can I have room service?

Um, extrara large pizza, pepperoni, uh

Cheese pizza

Che.

Cheese.

I'm sorry, extra large cheese.

Room one.

Room 803.

I'm so sorry.

Okay, thank you.

When did you stop eating pepper?

Pepperoni pizza?

It's not that.

It's school stuff

What is it?

What is it, baby?

Your classes, your grades?

It's not schools, it's not my classes.

Mom, I

I think I'm pregnant.

What?

What makes you think that

Well, yesterday, I
kissed my boyfriend, and,

um, today, my stomach hurts.

Then I saw somewhere online that you
can get pregnant from kissing somebody.

Okay.

And

I promise you are not pregnant

Are you sure?

I can assure you, you are not pregnant.

It'll be a thousand reasons
why your stuff hurts.

Uh, something you
ate, stress, but I promise.

You were not pregnant

Well, I just feel silly.

You don't have to feel silly.

You're still young and
you have so much to learn

I'm just proud of you for
coming to me instead of worrying.

Remember, you can always

come to me about anything,
no matter how afraid you are.

Okay.

All right?

Thanks, Mom.

I love you.

I love you.

Now that we got that settled,

can you actually call them back
and add the pepperoni today?

No, we're not doing...

Baby, I cannot take this. I can't think.

Oh, God.

Mrs. Collins.

Can I see you in my office
when you have a sec?

Yeah, I have a few minutes
before my next client.

It can wait until then.

Just be prompt, please.

What does he want now?

I cannot take this.

I cannot do this thing. Anymore.

Oh, Dear God.

Please give me the strength.

Let me go.

Who the hell are you talking to?

Did my assistant let you in?

I'm gonna go get her mother.

Oh, wait a second

Mrs. Collins.

We need to talk.

Now.

Crystal, next time

You wait until my assistant brings you in.

Have a seat

Fix your face.

Thank you, Crystal.

So we have to

go over this boring stuff again?

Sasha, please.

We have

a lot to go over, okay?

This is pointless.

Why do we even bother

Oh, pointless.

So maybe you shouldn't have been
stealing from high end department stores?

Maybe you should have got a job.

That's more pointless.

Um, excuse me, we
have this under control, sir.

Collins, in my office.

Oh, my gosh.

This is bullshit.

Relax.

That trash mouth of yours

is the reason we're here today.

Maybe if you had chastised her at
home, she wouldn't act a fool in here

My child is fine.

Are you gonna let this fucking
snooty bitch talk to us like that?

Ma!

It's okay, Crystal.

Listen to me.

If you want to win this case, I
suggest you close your mouth.

We got work to do.

Mom.

Keep her in check.

I got her.

Section 305 of this law says
that you were to be at school.

Where were you that day?

Charlie, what happened?

I was waiting in my office.

Oh, my God, I'm so sorry, Mr. Bennett.

Time just got away from me

I want to talk to you about
what happened this morning

Well, I wasn't late.

This is not about your attendance.

Someone saw you in your

car this morning, and in their
words, you look pretty disturbed.

Oh, no.

Oh, no, no, no.

I was just.

I was just doing some breathing
exercises that my therapist taught me.

Therapist?

You seeing a therapist?

Should I be concerned

No, Mr. Bennett, I'm okay.

Well, I'm gonna keep a close eye on you.

In the future, if you could
just refrain from doing

your breathing techniques in front of
students and colleagues, I appreciate it

But, Mr. Bennett, I was only

That's it.

That's enough.

Are you gonna be OK?

I told Mr. Bennett that I was in therapy.

I don't even have a damn therapist

Listen, I've been your assistant

for five years and your friend for three.

I got you

If he finds out that I lied
to him, my job is done.

I think I can help.

How?

Don't worry about it.

See me after

Hello.

Who's this?

Hi, um, Dr. Melendez.

Yes, this is she.

This is Charlie Collins.

My assistant mentioned you, Crystal

Oh, right.

Um, listen, I'm with you.

A client right now, but
can you call me back,

say, about 3:15?

Oh, no, um, no.

I might not be available then.

Oh, okay.

Well, leave me your number, and
I'll give you a call later this evening.

That's all right.

I'll try reaching out later.

Thanks.

Okay.

All right, then.

Take care.

Bye bye.

Hi.

Hi.

Hi Zoe.

Hi.

Oh, you're so beautiful.

Shh.

Hi.

I'm sorry.

Yes.

Yes.

Girl.

He messed up.

Mom, I can't even talk
about this right now.

Well, you need to hear it.

Mistakes happen, even
in the best marriages.

It don't mean he don't love you.

You got a daughter who's
got mad love for her daddy.

And he's wild about
her, that's for damn sure.

Your man tripped.

And now you're gonna
have to help him get back up.

I I cannot

believe you're talking
to me like this right now.

You went about this all wrong.

And now folks are going to be talking

Let them fucking talk

Fine.

But keep this business out of the
streets and in the family from here on out

I'm sorry, I just

And when you feel the need
to go out of your damn head

again, come see your mama.

You hear me?

I gotta go.

Shh.

Later, okay?

Okay, don't cry.

What about your damn baby

Can you please just
keep her a little longer

Child, you are treading on my last nerve.

I didn't sign up to be a daycare 24/7.

I have a life

What life?

All you do is sit around here and watch
TV and play Candy Crusher on your phone

Don't disrespect me.

You're not too old to slap.

I gotta go.

And don't give me any bullshit
about postponum depression

That's just another three
dollar word for bad mother

Oh.

Emma is waiting for me at the hotel.

I got... go, Mom.

Good night.

You know, someday I'm
gonna be dead in a ditch.

And then what are you gonna do?

Huh?

Huh?

Selfish fucking bitch..

I can't be serious.

What?

Why?

Well, I tell you about
wearing sweatpants to be..

David, I am comfortable.

You' selfish.

What?

What?

Why are you talking to me like that??

You come in bed looking
like a goddamn bag lady.

David, David, what are you talking about?

I'm I'm I'm done.

I'm going to bed.

David.

Leave me alone.

What?

I'm going to bed.

Who's that?

Who is that

Who said that?

Who's talking to me?

Who's talking

Who's talking to me

Who was talking to me?

Oh, No, no, no, no, no, no.

No, no.

These sounds.

Are you okay?

Dr. Melendez will see you now.

Dr. Melendez

Hi, Charlie.

Come on in.

Have a seat.

Thank you.

Well?

Hi, Dr. Melinda's.

I'm Charlie, and I'm fine, I guess.

You can call me Elena.

Well, Elena, I'm here
for appearances, basically

Appearances?

What do you mean?

Well, I kind of told my boss

that I was in therapy because I thought it
would just be the mature thing to do, but

his response was negative, so...

I just don't want it to backfire.

Why do you feel that way?

Did something happen?

I cussed out a parent.

I just lost it.

Charlie, I can't vouch

for therapy sessions that haven't happened, but
I can promise you that I can actually help you

if you're willing to try

I don't need therapy.

I just can't lose my job.

I have a daughter.

Oh, J.

Here.

Just take a deep breath.

I want you to breathe in and
out and just slowly exhale.

Take some water.

Oh.

You're safe here, Charlie.

You're doing the best you can.

I keep.

I

Just keep hearing these these voices.

Voices.

What are they saying to you?

That I'm worthless.

That nothing I do is good enough.

Are you using your words to fight back?

Not always.

But when I do, I...

I'm able to pick myself back up.

Good.

I want you to remember
that your words are your

weapon, and they will give you power.

Do you think you can try?

Fine, okay.

I'll try.

Okay.

That is our time for today.

But how about we meet again next week?

I really do think there's a
lot we can work on together.

Okay?

I guess I could use some help.

Remember, you're not alone in this.

I want you to take care, okay?

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Remember, Elena

Hi.

Girl.

Mr. Bennett's. Been
asking me where you been.

I had a client lunch.

That wasn't on the schedule

Well, put it on there.

What's going on?

Talk to me.

I had a session today.

The therapy session?

You know, I told Mr. Bennett
that I was in therapy, so.

I got roped into it.

You know it's okay to seek therapy.

Some of us need it from time to time.

Yeah.

Well, I went to go stop in on
my mom and the baby, and

it got so bad, I had to walk out on her

Seriously?

I really hate that you
have to go through this.

She's, like, stuck in his slave mentality.

She blames me for my marriage not working.

I don't understand.

Our ancestors have been traumatized

from slavery.

I mean, they've watched our families get

ripped apart, so now they're
holding on tight to family

even when they're ry as shit.

Wow.

I never even thought of it like that.

You know what?

My mom probably needs
to go to therapy with me

Probably she does.

Um.

But, you know, black people
think it's taboo to seek help.

My mom would never
accept me going to therapy

Char, you need to tell her.

What I need?

I need a archangel that's

gonna send all his little
heavenly hosts down and

convince her meat ass to go in.

Yeah, well,

I know you'll get it done
when the time comes.

Until then, you let me know
if there's anything I can do.

I appreciate you.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Uh, before you, can you
get those files to Mr. Bennett?

Sure.

God, I need a miracle.

Mom?

I brought you some tea.

Mom,

you have to eat or drink something.

Something to get your strength back.

You

know, the reason Dad left is because
he can't stand to see you like this.

Whatever.

Who is it?

Where's Daddy?

Hey.

I heard about mom from Grant.

How's she doing?

You hurt.

My grandma had no business.

No business telling you what my mom had on.

She doesn't even want to see you.

Oh, babe, I'm so sorry you're
going through this, honey.

I came to help.

Have you eaten?

Dad, don't worry about me.

My mom hasn't eaten in days.

I have to worry about you.

You're my child.

We can take care of your mom together.

We don't need your help.

Em

Listen, how about we grab something to eat?

No.

Who is it now

Hi, Miss Grace.

Hey.

Oh, God.

Oh!

Don't cry my love.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Don't cry.

I'm here, I'm here.

What's going on?

How's your mom?

I keep calling her and
calling her and calling her

She's not answering her phone.

She won't even get out of bed.

No, won't.

She won't eat.

Oh, no. Sorry, sweetheart.

Come here, come here.

David

Surprised to see a
triffling cheating ass here.

Well, I couldn't let Emma
go through this alone.

A joke.

What are you doing here?

Somebody said your name three times.

Whatever.

I'm here to help.

Anyway, my love, I bought you
some groceries and some things.

Thank you, Miss Grace.

You're welcome.

Put them in the kitchen
and put them away, okay?

I'm here now.

If you want to go upstairs to
see me, my mom be my guest.

Okay.

To see if I can motivate her
and try to come downstairs

or do something, okay?

Cause I miss her I want to see her.

All right.

You can let yourself out.

I don't even know why you're
here 'cause you're work less.

Hey.

Char!

What are you doing?

Oh.

Char.

Char.

I can't.

I, I can't do this anymore.

No, don't say that.

I am so scared.

I know.

I know, you can't.

You can't give up.

What if Emma had come in here?

Oh, she's okay.

Shar.

Char, please.

Please.

Char

God will take care of you.

You can't give up.

Put it up.

Why?

It's okay.

I'm sorry.

We want to get us together.

Hi, Dr. Oh, what a day.

I'm just here for moral support.

What do you are you doing?

I want to know what
you're talking about in here.

Ma'am, this is a private session.

I'm gonna need you to leave

So how are you doing, Charlie?

Well, tell me, how have you been sleeping?

Sleep.

Yes.

Either I don't sleep at all

or I am legitimately dead to the world.

OK, well, how's everything else been going?

Oh Oh!

Oh, you mean my my little
world systemically falling apart?

Just great.

Next dumb question.

Look, I

know you're just here in therapy
to keep your boss off your back,

but if you give me a
chance, I think I can help you

So what is on your mind?

What's troubling you, hmm?

I just...

I'm just so.

What?

What are you feeling?

What has you so anxious, huh?

I'm just so anxious all the time.

Listen, it's okay to

feel that way, but I am
gonna be here to help you.

We're gonna get through this.

So what is making you feel so uneasy?

I just feeling on edge.

I don't think the medicines are working.

Like they're not strong
enough or something.

I mean, from last week to this week,

you don't feel that there's been a change

So you mean to tell me that

you get paid $300 a day, and you

can't tell me if I need a
new prescription or not?

Like, if my medicines are strong enough.

I mean, you are a doctor, right?

Hmm?

I know that you are feeling like you're
suffocating, but I I'm here to help you.

Is there anything that you feel

like you want to try differently?

I know that I hear you saying that
you're practicing your breathing and

the last notes I had here

from our last session,

I just feel like

the world is on my shoulders at night.

I just.

I can't keep up.

I mean, I'm out of work,

so my cases are just piling up,

and my boss is always
on me about something.

It's too much.

Well, I can't understand it.

It does sound very overwhelming for you.

So how have you been managing everything

Are you suggesting that I quit my job

I understand.

I'm not asking you to step back.

I'm just wanting you to see how
you feel about the job situation

and see if there's anything that you can do that might actually
alleviate some of these things. Things that you're feeling.

Is there anywhere or any place
that you feel more comfortable?

Is there anybody that you
can talk to or they can help you?

Not my mom.

And Emma, she's

always acting questions.

And I have a brand new baby
that I barely spend time with.

I don't even breastfeed her anymore.

My world is

falling apart, and there's
nothing I can do about it.

OK, so I can't decide for you.

You have to let me
know what you feel is best

I'm here.

Thank you.

We're welcome.

Charlie, you have a good day, okay?

I'll try.

Why the hell are you slamming my door

What is he doing here

This is my damn house, and I
can have whoever I want in it

Why are you always allowing him to hurt me

Hello, Ms. Dramatic

Fuck you.

Hurt you?

Why do you make everything about you?

I asked David to bring me some
things I needed and to see the kids

You couldn't have called me?

Remember, you walked out on me last time.

And David.

You got time for my mother, but
you don't have time for your kids

Charlie, you made it very clear that I
wasn't allowed in your lives anymore.

David, I didn't know
you couldn't visit the kids.

A child should never be caught
in the middle of adult problems

Then make me a schedule when I can see my.

Maybe I will.

Maybe you will?

You better

You don't get to dictate
when I can see my kids

That doesn't sound fair, Charlie.

I didn't know you did that

I'm confused.

God.

Why are you taking his side?

David, you should be figuring
out a way to get your family back

I don't have to justify myself to you.

Karen

I will talk to you later.

Run!

Go ahead, 'cause I'm done one!

You see this on his face?

That's because our gorilla
glued him to the woman

he was fucking in our bed.

Charlie, that's enough!

It ain't enough until I say it's enough.

Oh, my God!

She needs to know.

I thought you were
bullshitting like you do.

Karen.

I should be going.

I'll talk to you later.

Charlie

I'm so sorry.

I didn't want to believe it until now

I know, Mom.

I just couldn't hold it inside anymore.

We'll get through this, Charlie.

You and the kids will be okay.

There's

a place you should go to get some solace.

It always worked for me.

Where mom?

Surprise.

Hey, Mama.

I'm gonna go put the baby down.

Well, well, look what the cat dragged in.

It's.

Surprise, Grandma.

I love you.

I love you.

What's you like a glass of wine?

Absolutely.

Thank you.

I haven't had a good
glass of wine in a long time.

Glad you like it.

Yes.

Please tell me you cook
sometimes for this child

Grandma, my mom cooks.

Not like you, though

Oh, excuse me

There's nothing like a homemade meal.

A Sunday dinner used to
bring the family together,

but now everyone eats unhealthy fast food

You know what, Grandma?

If you cook, trust me.

We'll be there

I wish your mom will let
you come over more often

Uh uh.

I already told you, Emma
is busy with her schoolwork

I guess

I guess.

And where's this little angel been?

She's gotten so big

Hasn't she?

Mm hmm.

Wow.

Time flies.

Mm.

I really want to thank

you so, so much for everything you've done
for me and Emma over the last two weeks.

I really, really appreciate you

Girl, you don't have to thank me.

You know we friends.

Speaking of the which.

I'm bringing you some papers.

Mr. Bennett told me to bring
them over for you, some forms

It has your short term
disability and your FMLA.

Whoa, these are a lot of forms.

Wait, hold on.

Does it say unpaid leave?

Oh, mm mm.

I can't.

I can't do this.

Think about it like this.

At least saved you your job

I don't care about my job.

I have bills.

Emma, a new baby.

I can't.

I can't.

Well, at least you have health insurance.

Look, check with your doctor and

ask them to fill out the forms
about short term disability.

How am I supposed to do that?

I'm afraid to even go outside.

I know, but I'll go with you.

This is one thing after
another after another.

God, boy, I don't know.

I can't do this.

You can do this.

You can do it.

You can.

Am I crazy?

I really want at this point,
I feel like I'm going crazy.

If you're crazy, I'm crazy.

Okay, you're crazy..

Yeah, yeah.

Okay.

Makes sense.

I don't want to drink.

I drink drink.

Crazy selves is going
to drink these drinks.

So, where have you been?

I had a breakdown

at work, so I've been in bed.

Did you go to the ER?

Yes.

But I was so embarrassed

Why?

Mental health issues are
more common than you know.

People are suffering in silence every day

I feel so... weak.

Like How am I supposed
to be an example to Emma?

Charlie, it takes a lot of strength
to admit when you have a problem.

There are people that are
self medicating with drugs

and alcohol all the time.

I didn't even think of it like that.

And a few people do.

And then they drive around in
the Kensington section of the city,

and they just assume that
those people there are alcoholics

or drug addicts, not realizing that they have
actually underlineding conditions and issues

My job approved my FMLA.

How do I get short time disability?

Well, I can help you with that.

What I'll do is provide you with
your medical records and also

your medication list And then that'll be the first
step that you need to take in order to get approved

So, my

story and my situation isn't enough?

No.

And what's gonna happen
FMLA is gonna complicate it.

But

They'll just assume that your

condition is temporary when an actuality,

your diagnosis is going to be lifelong.

But it is something
that's manageable for you.

So, basically, you're
telling me I can get denied.

Yes.

But don't worry about that.

I'm going to do all that I can to help you.

So the next thing I would like
you to do is go to the medical

records department and
get a copy of your records.

And that'll be a paper
trail that can help your case

Okay.

Okay.

It's gonna be okay, Charlie.

Thank you, Doctor.

All right.

I hope so.

It will be.

Hi, Mrs. Collins.

How may I help you?

I'm here for my medical records, please

Walk ins aren't allowed.

You're going to have to
make an appointment online

Make an appointment, I'm already here.

Sorry.

Those are the rules.

I need my

disability paperwork before my appointment.

Okay.

Well.

There's a website

I suggest you do it now on your phone.

Checkmate.

Hi, Mrs. Collins.

How can I help you?

I made an appointment.

I have my paperwork now

I'm sorry, you're going to
have to come back in two hours.

What am I supposed to do for two hours

You can go visit the cafeteria.

The lasagne isn't half bed.

Come on.

Have a good day.

Hey mom

Hey, baby girl.

How was school?

School's okay.

I just kept thinking
about you all day, though.

Emma, I do not want you
worried about me, okay?

It's not really worrying.

You know what?

Grandma says, if you're
gonna worry, don't pray.

So I just prayed

I like that.

Well, your prayers worked.

I hope so.

So, right now, I'm actually filling out
some paper so we can get some help.

More forms?

Yeah, tell me about it.

It's like you worked all your life,
and you got to go through hoops

and bounds and all this shit just
to get a turn on your investment.

Mom, Mom... took a deep breath in

And out.

Trust me, we're gonna get through this

We're gonna power through it.

You got this.

We got this.

Thank you, baby.

Mrs. Collins, what brings
you to our office today?

I am.

I'm looking to apply
for short term disability

Okay.

Um, were you injured?

No.

It's for my mental health issue.

Um, do you have any forms

from your therapist or the hospital?

Actually, I do.

Uh, my therapist filled out some papers,

and, um, I got my medical records

Okay.

I see you've recently
applied for F FMLA benefits.

Are you planning on going back to work?

I don't I don't think so,

but will that mess up my eltability

In some cases, you'll need

to have your therapist
fill out a MRFC form.

Do you keep a journal?

MRFC.

And no.

No, I don't keep a journal

Okay, you should start keeping a
journal to record your daily feelings.

Our therapists will to see that and the

mental residual functioning capacity.

MRFC form completed..

I need to see a therapist too.

How do I set appointment?

I can schedule you now.

Before you come, make
sure you get that form filled out.

Do you see any other
doctors, or.. Go to group therapy

Yeah, um, I I'm attending my church group

That's good.

Uh, Are you taking any
medication for your condition?

Yes.

Okay, do you have a lawyer

No, do I need one

It has been proven to be
helpful to have legal counsel

I did not know this was
gonna be so complicated

Unfortunately.

But I have your appointment
scheduled for one month from today

One month?

What am I supposed to do about income

Um, I'm sorry, but that's the
first available appointment.

Do you have any family or friends that

could help you out financially
until your appointment?

Do you want a card or is an email, okay?

What?

Mrs. Collins, are you okay?

Right here.

What?

Stay away from me.

Okay.

Yeah, she needs hope.

Mom,

do you think you and Dad
will ever get back together?

No, but I think we'll
communicate much more..

Okay.

Well, honestly, I'm just
glad we're all getting along.

Um, did Dad ever tell you how
he got that scar on his face?

Some things are better left unset, baby.

Uh, okay.

Let's go, okay?

Okay.

No, okay.

This

is a little something to help you
through the rest of this month.

Mom, where did you get all this money from?

This is part of my late
father's life insurance policy.

I was saving it for a rainy day.

And, boy, is it raining?

Your support

means everything to me.

We may not always agree, but

you're my child, and I love you.

Hi, Charlie, how are you?

Uh, some days

are better than other, but Emma's
really helping me get through it all.

Well, motivation is the key.

You have to do it for yourself.

You know, we have to
take care of ourselves first

I always thought putting
myself first was selfish

Why do you feel that way

My belief systems.

The Bible says that charity

starts from home, so I thought
that meant putting others first.

But home is not just where we live.

Home is actually your
physical body as well.

You know, you have to

balance your own home first.

Wow.

I never even saw it like that.

That's why we're working together

I help you to see what you can't.

Come on.

So this is the foundation for your health

Wow.

Thank you.

I'm.

I'm actually starting to feel better.

I'm also happy for you.

You're doing such a wonderful job.

I'm proud of you and
Emma's proud of you too

Thank you.

A lot of paperwork still, but...

I can do this.

Yeah, you can.

Hmm.

Yes.

Oh, girl.

Thank you so much for coming.

Thank you for having me.

Let's do our prayer.

Yes, I am.

Dear God, thank you so much for this food.

Thank you for the nourishment
of our body in Jesus' name

Amen

Amen.

That's food look so

Delicious.

Mm, mm mm.

Yeah.

Mmm.

Mmm, mm mm.

I am so stupid.

I can't wait to eat some more, but.. Girl,

are you good?

Yeah, I'm sorry.

I'm good, yes.

I just was thinking about my church group.

You started group to?

Yes, my disability worker said that

the more paperwork I get,
the better my chances are.

So I'm doing the things.

I am so proud of you.

You are really doing to work.

Yeah, and speaking of work

If I'm gonna be honest,
I'm kind of missing the office,

but... with all the changes,

I don't know if I'm ready yet.

You have to take care of yourself and

take all the time you
need to not rush back.

Take your time.

Oh, I didn't say rush.

I said I missed it.

Plus, I was so tired of eating that bistro.

No, let's get into this here, food.

Okay. 'Cause I' same old
Rubens everything every day.

Mm.

Oh, my God, I was getting so much weight

Are you an expecting company?

Mm mm.

Let me see what I ask.

Give me one second.

Don't worry, I'll be right here.

Don't touch my plate.

David, what are you doing here?

Emma is for the night at her
friend's house and I was a dream of it.

So's father was.

I thought of.

Wow, really?

They're gorgeous.

Grace and I are having
dinner if you want to join us.

No, I don't want to impose,
but I like to join your group.

Are you serious?

Figured I was part of the problem.

I want to be better.

David, we're done.

That's not what I meant.

Char.

I want to get help for myself.

Okay, well, um..

Group is Tuesday night.

See you there.

Wow.

Mmm.

Those are so lovely.

Do, you have a new boo
that I don't know about?

No..

I need to know what he's look
like what he wear, what he drive.

Tell me something.

Spill the tea.

No, they're just.

They're just from David.

David?

Yeah.

Seriously?

What's up with that?

Nothing.

He's just being supportive

That's nice of him.

Too bad he had to get scarred

in order for him to realize.

He wants to come to group

No way.

Yeah, I was surprised, too.

He says that he needs help.

Is he going through a midlife crisis?

No.

He finally admitted

to being a major part of
our marriage breakdown

Prayer work, honey.

Child, I'm crazy, but I ain't crazy
enough to let this food go to waste.

And you better not.

I ain't been to work, remember?

On the budget.

Give me some EBT.

Thinking about the advice you
gave me and how I was just seeing

outside of that, like, the girls at
my school and they're not authentic.

Yeah, I get it.

Well, like I always tell you, you
only can love who you are naturally.

So, continue to be your authentic
self, 'cause you're beautiful.

And speaking of authentic self,

Mr. Bennett

me to speak on Thursday

No, he didn't.

Did he?

Proud of you, Mom.

Thank you, baby.

Can I come?

Ah, my teenage daughter wants to come

Yes?

Of course.

Okay.

That means a lot.

I'm gonna invite your grandmother to do.

And trust me, she'll be proud of you, too.

You think so?

I know so.

Okay, well, I trust you.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Good morning, everyone.

Today, we have a very
special guest who's going to

talk to us about her journey
and challenges with mental health.

Please give a warm
welcome to Mrs. Charlie Collins

Thank you, everyone.

It is such an honor to be here.

There was a point in

my life when I didn't
realize that I needed help.

But thanks to a very good friend who

saw a change in me, that
that was my turning point.

Acceptance is the first stage of healing.

We have to accept that we need
help and be willing to get help.

Talk to someone that
that you trust, whether

it is a best friend,
coworker, or professional.

Don't let that little voice in your
head tell you to stay safe silent.

Wow.

Because now I'm here. Standing

in front of everyone who's
supported me, thanking you

for helping me before it was too late.

So I wrote you a love letter.

Remember, life can

be challenging, and it's
okay to feel overwhelmed.

Prioritize your mental health, like

you prioritize your physical health..

Talk about your feelings.

Take breaks, get sleep,

rest, eat well, pray.

Practice.

Practice mindfulness.

And never forget to seek
mental help if you need it.

You are not alone.

So let's support each

other as we break the stigma
surrounding mental health.

Together.

Together, we can create

a healthier and happier
life with love, Charlie.

Yeah,

Playing together.

You really thought this was gonna work?

Look at you.

Look at you.

Just dumb, dumb

You thought he loved you?

You thought he was faithful?

You are so delusional.

What is he doing here?

This is my damn house, and I
can have whoever I want in it

Why are you always allowing him to hurt me?

Karen

I will talk to you later.

You see this on his face?

That's because our gorilla
glued him to the woman.

He was

Fucking

in our bed.

Charlie, that's enough.

It ain't enough.

It's until I face enough.

Oh, my God.

Girl, he messed up.

Mistakes happen even in the best marriages

Your man tripped.

And now you're gonna
have to help him get back up.

You should kill yourself.
