Black Self Reliance

We cannot wait and must not wait on the so-called White man to do anything in the best interest of the Black man. His philosophy is white supremacy. He believes his race must always rule, govern, and make laws. He has no room for us in his style of government or society. He believes the Black man must always be kept in the place of his servant or slave.......[more]

Would You "Go Back to Africa?"

Not that you have ever lived there being an "African-American" and all; but if there were a place prepared for you and your family, would you go? For instance, if you knew you had a decent job lined up, a decent place to live, and an opportunity to be put in a position to help many people over there, would you? Even if those things were not provided for you but some American agency provided you an all expense paid return to the Home Land, would it even be a consideration......[more]

Undoing Willie Lynch

Can the Willie Lynch syndrome be undone? Yes, and in half the time it took to enforce it. According to the letter by Willie Lynch, "If used intensively for one year, the slaves themselves will remain perpetually distrustful." This strategy, if used, is made up of 3 words: fear, distrust, and envy, which are all practices of evil. Thus, if the 400-plus year division and subjugation of Black America is attributed to evil elements, then the practice of good on our part will break the cycle........[more]

Common Personailty Disorders

Among non-psychologists, it is common to confuse personality disorders with psychological disorders generally (i.e., psychopathology), when in fact personality disorders are only one variety of psychopathology. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV, American Psychiatric Association, 1994) distinguishes disorders like depression and schizophrenia (Axis I disorders) from personality disorders (Axis II disorders).

Although there is a great deal of overlap among these different kinds of disorders (e.g., borderline personality disorder often occurs with depression, and personality disorders often occur together), it is probably worthwhile at least to be aware of the conceptual distinction.

Personality disorders, by definition, are disorders of personality. Consequently, they are typified by early onset and pervasive effects. Nevertheless, there are treatments that can help those with personality disorders learn to cope with their distinctive problems in living.

Treatment Approaches to Psychological Disorders

If you or someone you know is showing extreme signs of depression and or some form of abnormal behavior, here are some suggestions to various treatment approaches that can help. These are the most recent and more effective forms of psychological treatment. Most abnormal behavior and forms of depression come from highly stressful situations that may have become deep-rooted over long periods of time and even from recent situations such as the lose of a loved one and being overworked, to as far back as a traumatic childhood experience.......[more]
