Vulnerability becomes a superpower in this raw, emotional conversation with author Terrell Latchinson, who transforms personal tragedy into purpose through writing and advocacy. After losing his brother to PTSD-related complications a decade ago, Latchinson found himself turning to writing as a therapeutic outlet – eventually launching a career crafting fiction that tackles mental health issues within minority communities.
The power of Latchinson's story lies in its authenticity. He doesn't claim expertise as a mental health professional but rather speaks from lived experience, creating fictional narratives that spark essential conversations about conditions like narcissism, depression, and PTSD. His debut novel, "Nehemiah the Narcissist," subtly explores how environmental factors might shape narcissistic tendencies without explicitly pathologizing its characters. This approach makes difficult mental health concepts accessible while honoring the cultural nuances often overlooked in mainstream mental health discussions.
What makes this conversation truly remarkable is Latchinson's courageous transparency about his own current battle with depression and suicidal thoughts. Despite his success as an author, supportive family, and growing platform, he reminds us that mental illness doesn't discriminate based on achievements, education, or social status. This powerful testimony shatters stigmas that prevent many, especially within communities of color, from seeking help. Whether you're struggling with mental health challenges yourself or supporting someone who is, Latchinson's message is clear: show up authentically, listen without judgment, and recognize that healing often begins with honest conversation.

00:00:00.420 --> 00:00:08.390
Welcome to the Living the Dream Podcast with Curveball, if you believe you can achieve.
00:00:08.390 --> 00:00:24.574
Welcome to the Living the Dream with Curveball Podcast, a show where I interview guests that teach, motivate and inspire.
00:00:24.574 --> 00:00:33.493
Today I am joined by one of my classmates 1997, deritter High School, terrell Latchison.
00:00:33.493 --> 00:00:34.975
He is an author.
00:00:34.975 --> 00:00:52.009
You know, terrell grew up you know military, family and all that good stuff, and finally I came out to DeRitter all that good stuff and finally came out to the Ritter and what his book is focused on is mental health and the minority community.
00:00:52.009 --> 00:00:58.929
So we're going to be talking to him about how we got into writing and why mental health and the minority community is so important.
00:00:58.929 --> 00:01:01.060
So, terrell, thank you so much for joining me.
00:01:01.923 --> 00:01:03.365
Curtis man, thank you so much.
00:01:03.365 --> 00:01:04.408
It's definitely been a pleasure.
00:01:04.408 --> 00:01:06.993
I've been excited this whole week.
00:01:06.993 --> 00:01:10.921
I apologize for us having to push back, but I've definitely been excited this whole week.
00:01:10.921 --> 00:01:17.242
One to speak about, to be on your platform as well as to just speak to a classmate.
00:01:17.242 --> 00:01:19.111
Like you said, we're classmates.
00:01:19.111 --> 00:01:21.221
We've been knowing each other for a long, long, long time.
00:01:21.221 --> 00:01:35.906
Haven't connected with you in a while, so I'm definitely excited to be able to just talk, just have a conversation with somebody that comes from where I come from, cut from the same cloth that I'm cut from oh, absolutely, man, and I've been excited as well.
00:01:36.120 --> 00:01:39.344
So I started off by telling everybody a little bit about yourself.
00:01:41.460 --> 00:01:43.067
Again, I am a military brat.
00:01:43.067 --> 00:01:52.245
My dad served in the army so of course we were stationed in Fort Polk, louisiana, which is just down the street from Derrida.
00:01:52.245 --> 00:01:55.728
We decided to attend Derrida High School.
00:01:55.728 --> 00:02:04.643
Myself and my brother and I graduated in, like you mentioned before I graduated in class of 97.
00:02:04.643 --> 00:02:07.871
Decided to be to come out of that area.
00:02:07.871 --> 00:02:10.277
Learned a lot from, like you mentioned before I graduated in class of 97.
00:02:10.277 --> 00:02:11.060
Excited to come out of that area.
00:02:11.060 --> 00:02:16.945
I learned a lot from my classmates from the area, from just a lot of life lessons.
00:02:16.945 --> 00:02:21.453
I continued my education at Magne State University here in Lake Charles Louisiana.
00:02:21.453 --> 00:02:37.951
I've been here since I married my wife and raised my kids here and been here ever since and, of course, like you mentioned, started writing books about six to seven years ago and still been on that journey today.
00:02:39.941 --> 00:02:50.981
So kind of talk to the listeners about you know how you got in writing, because I know that when we were going to school, you know you might not have been thinking that you were going to become an author.
00:02:50.981 --> 00:02:53.570
So kind of talk to the listeners about how you got into that.
00:02:54.775 --> 00:03:02.600
Well, certainly I will say, you know, in high school as well as in college, I wasn't an avid reader, I wasn't a writer.
00:03:02.600 --> 00:03:03.984
I didn't go to school for writing.
00:03:03.984 --> 00:03:08.272
I didn't, I didn't, I didn't partake in book clubs and things of that nature.
00:03:08.272 --> 00:03:10.062
You know, writing kind of fell in my lap.
00:03:10.062 --> 00:03:16.955
Unfortunately it was, it was it fell in my lap in regards to dealing with trauma.
00:03:16.955 --> 00:03:20.004
Unfortunately, 10 years ago I lost my brother.
00:03:20.004 --> 00:03:23.552
You know who you know, of course you know, graduated a year before us.
00:03:23.552 --> 00:03:26.218
You know who you know, of course you know, graduated a year before us.
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:31.385
I lost my brother and writing was a coping mechanism that my, my counselor suggested to me.
00:03:31.385 --> 00:03:42.750
So I started off writing just my thoughts, you know, expressing my anger, expressing my hurt, expressing, you know, my, my pain, any and everything, every emotion that I had.
00:03:42.750 --> 00:03:43.711
I expressed it.
00:03:43.711 --> 00:03:47.225
You know, most of most, a lot of therapy, and I go to a lot of therapy right now.
00:03:47.225 --> 00:03:52.710
A lot of therapy result is centered around writing.
00:03:52.710 --> 00:03:56.040
You know, just expressing and just kind of just.
00:03:56.040 --> 00:04:14.516
If you can't articulate it verbally, you express it, you know, through a form of healing and it evolved later on into me just researching about mental health because my brother, he had PTSD.
00:04:14.516 --> 00:04:22.548
He served our country, he was in the army, he had PTSD and he ended up dying as a result of result of it.
00:04:22.588 --> 00:04:24.589
I'm not going to go too, too deep into the details.
00:04:24.589 --> 00:04:30.057
I don't want to get too emotional in regards, but, um, I wanted to be an advocate for, for mental health.
00:04:30.057 --> 00:04:38.312
Um, I'm not, I'm not asian, I'm not, I'm not white, I'm not anything.
00:04:38.312 --> 00:04:39.714
I'm an african-american man.
00:04:39.714 --> 00:04:40.521
So I wanted to.
00:04:40.521 --> 00:04:50.536
I wanted to write about mental health as it regards to African-Americans or just people of color in general.
00:04:50.536 --> 00:04:52.264
So I got into writing from trauma.
00:04:55.730 --> 00:04:57.675
Yeah, well, I definitely know, Titus.
00:04:57.675 --> 00:05:02.783
I didn't realize about that until I read your bio, so I'm definitely sorry for your loss.
00:05:02.783 --> 00:05:04.836
No problem, I appreciate that.
00:05:04.836 --> 00:05:11.315
So do you have any kind of influences, you know over the years when you started writing?
00:05:11.315 --> 00:05:17.603
Is there somebody that you look up to or who influences you to do what you do when it comes to writing, what you do when?
00:05:17.622 --> 00:05:29.194
it comes to writing, so I didn't know anybody that wrote a book the closest I got to, and this was maybe six years ago, I don't know.
00:05:29.194 --> 00:05:30.197
I'm sure you're familiar with her.
00:05:30.218 --> 00:05:31.562
She's from Derrida, jamie Mays, yep, absolutely.
00:05:32.023 --> 00:05:34.591
So Jamie Mays has written a number of books.
00:05:34.591 --> 00:05:37.077
I actually just finished another one of her books this morning.
00:05:37.077 --> 00:05:43.389
Jamie Mays was the only person that I knew that looked like me, sound like me and was cut from the same cloth.
00:05:43.389 --> 00:05:48.577
Comes from the root of a small town, educated young lady and I from afar.
00:05:48.577 --> 00:05:53.285
I always kept up with her, you know, through LinkedIn, through buying her books, just supporting.
00:05:53.285 --> 00:06:04.846
So I'm not going to say that that was an inspiration, but that was definitely a person that I felt like, okay, she's doing it, so let me reach out to her and see if she can help me with my journey.
00:06:04.846 --> 00:06:08.197
And then she later on became my editor for my book.
00:06:08.197 --> 00:06:14.559
So shout out to Jamie Mays great person, great books.
00:06:14.559 --> 00:06:22.500
That's what made me feel comfortable enough to say that I think I can do this, because I know someone that can do that, that is doing it and is thriving and is doing a great job.
00:06:25.709 --> 00:06:26.672
Yeah, well, that's great.
00:06:26.672 --> 00:06:31.862
That definitely sounds like Jamie is doing some great things and maybe one day I can get her on.
00:06:32.529 --> 00:06:32.930
That will be.
00:06:32.930 --> 00:06:38.392
I think you would be, you'll be, pleasantly, you would be, you'll be you, you would be, you'd be you.
00:06:38.392 --> 00:06:45.815
I'm sorry my words out, but she's definitely somebody that I would certainly reach out and highly recommend because she's she's a great person.
00:06:46.716 --> 00:06:48.237
Absolutely so.
00:06:48.237 --> 00:06:54.819
Do you have any, any statistics as far as when it comes to mental health in the minority community?
00:06:55.939 --> 00:06:56.279
I don't.
00:06:56.279 --> 00:07:02.583
I have statistics but I don't want to share the statistics and the reason I say this is because I am not a mental health expert.
00:07:02.583 --> 00:07:03.803
You know, I didn't.
00:07:03.803 --> 00:07:04.504
I didn't go to school.
00:07:04.504 --> 00:07:15.028
So I don't want to disrespect anybody that's in their profession in regards to throwing out statistics and given you know, given definitions in regards to what a narcissist is and things of that nature.
00:07:15.028 --> 00:07:35.752
My book is a fictional book, you know, and the title is Nehemiah the Narcissist.
00:07:35.752 --> 00:07:38.858
Now, the title is subjective because I want my reader to read the book and if they feel like this gentleman is not a narcissist, then great it's.
00:07:38.858 --> 00:07:40.600
Don't like having this conversation about mental health.
00:07:40.600 --> 00:07:44.132
If they have it, or if they have someone that does have it, it's more of a taboo subject.
00:07:44.132 --> 00:07:49.230
So I'm writing just so I can have, so we can spark that conversation for mental health.
00:07:49.230 --> 00:07:59.300
So I don't want to get on and I want to disrespect anyone that is a that's in their profession and start throwing out numbers when I'm not really that person to do so.
00:07:59.300 --> 00:08:01.103
I wrote a fiction book.
00:08:03.630 --> 00:08:04.896
Yeah, I definitely understand.
00:08:04.896 --> 00:08:12.317
Well, you know, just kind of talk about your book, you know, let the listeners know where they can get it and tell them what they can expect when they read it.
00:08:13.812 --> 00:08:14.997
So the book is on Amazon.
00:08:14.997 --> 00:08:19.882
I have paperback hard copy as well as it's on Kindle.
00:08:19.882 --> 00:08:22.095
I'm working on an audio book.
00:08:22.095 --> 00:08:27.673
I'm waiting, I'm working on the completion of the audio book, as we speak, the last stages of it.
00:08:27.673 --> 00:08:29.858
So you can find any of that information.
00:08:29.858 --> 00:08:32.083
You can find any of this literature on Amazon.
00:08:32.083 --> 00:08:36.557
You can find it if you Google my name.
00:08:36.557 --> 00:08:39.830
I mean I have a website you can.
00:08:39.830 --> 00:08:41.051
You can send an email to me.
00:08:41.051 --> 00:08:41.791
I can get it to you.
00:08:41.791 --> 00:08:43.172
If you're local, I can bring it to you.
00:08:43.172 --> 00:08:43.952
It's just, you know it's.
00:08:43.952 --> 00:08:46.573
It's definitely definitely kids, older son, daughter, as well as Nehemiah.
00:09:07.690 --> 00:09:12.740
He's the baby of the group and again, like I said, the title was subjective.
00:09:12.740 --> 00:09:15.759
The title could have been Nehemiah the cat or Nehemiah the dog.
00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:20.315
I don't mention narcissism anywhere throughout the book.
00:09:20.315 --> 00:09:22.399
Again, the title was subjective.
00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:30.932
But in regards to this young man, I try to paint a picture of how a person could become a narcissist helicopter mom.
00:09:30.932 --> 00:09:32.235
Very, very.
00:09:32.235 --> 00:09:33.638
You know she smothers him with love.
00:09:33.638 --> 00:09:35.702
She has an over supportive sister.
00:09:35.702 --> 00:09:37.273
He can't do anything wrong.
00:09:37.273 --> 00:09:48.302
He goes through a lot of tragic, tragic events in his life in regards to witnessing a murder, in regards to having the same first and last name as his dad.
00:09:48.302 --> 00:09:48.702
So he has.
00:09:48.702 --> 00:09:54.541
He has this disparity of, you know, of growing up with a man, growing up looking up to a man that he's never met.
00:09:54.541 --> 00:09:58.998
He hates the man but he loves the man and he has to carry that.
00:09:58.998 --> 00:10:06.418
And everyone's talking about this gentleman, nehemiah Sr, and he's never met him and he left before Nehemiah was born.
00:10:06.418 --> 00:10:12.157
So he carries that weight and that guilt but his mom's reassuring him every day that everything he does is perfect.
00:10:12.157 --> 00:10:15.956
You know you're a great guy, you assuring him every day that everything he does is perfect.
00:10:15.956 --> 00:10:18.682
You know he's you're a great guy, you're a great kid.
00:10:18.682 --> 00:10:20.265
Nothing you do is wrong.
00:10:20.265 --> 00:10:22.110
So he never learns to take accountability.
00:10:22.110 --> 00:10:26.130
And of course he's.
00:10:26.130 --> 00:10:27.316
He's a liar, he likes the gaslight, he likes to exaggerate.
00:10:27.336 --> 00:10:27.898
So the book takes you on a.
00:10:27.898 --> 00:10:32.313
It chronologically takes you through a journey from a kid, that's from third grade, all the way up to a senior year.
00:10:32.313 --> 00:10:35.490
And again, I'm writing a number of books.
00:10:35.490 --> 00:10:40.491
I'm already finished with the conclusion of, I'm already finished with the sequel of this particular book.
00:10:40.491 --> 00:10:49.001
So this book kind of introduces Nehemiah and it introduces how he you know, the things that created it, the things that suggest that he may be a narcissist.
00:10:49.001 --> 00:10:52.354
The second book is going to open up because he's going to be a.
00:10:52.354 --> 00:10:54.758
He's going to be a young adult at that point, so I can open it up.
00:10:54.758 --> 00:10:58.945
It's hard to write about a kid being a narcissist because he's a kid.
00:10:58.945 --> 00:11:06.692
So I'm just kind of painting the picture in regards to how this gentleman became a narcissist, and then, of course, the second book is going to open up and then I continue to.
00:11:06.692 --> 00:11:13.039
I'm going to continue to keep writing different books in regards to Nehemiah to kind of show the evolution of his narcissism.
00:11:14.942 --> 00:11:19.167
Well, that was going to be my next question what else are you working on that listeners need to know about?
00:11:19.167 --> 00:11:23.019
So, besides your books, are you working on anything else that we need to be aware of?
00:11:23.730 --> 00:11:33.855
I actually well, I'm actually finished with three different books the sequel of this book, I have another book about depression and I have another book about, finished with a book about depression.
00:11:33.855 --> 00:11:37.006
And I have another book about um um, finished with a book about depression.
00:11:37.006 --> 00:11:45.357
And I have a third book that I'm writing that's almost complete and it's going to be dealing more, more along the lines of PTSD.
00:11:45.357 --> 00:11:50.254
So I'm taking my time on that book because, of course, that subject is near and dear to my heart because of my brother.
00:11:50.254 --> 00:11:55.932
So, but again, every book that I'm writing, I'm writing books that people of our culture can relate to.
00:11:55.932 --> 00:12:05.671
You know, you know, the best example I can give you is if you watch the movie boys in the hood, you're going to get gyms and it's it's more about our culture, but it's dropping gyms.
00:12:05.671 --> 00:12:10.638
I want to do the same thing, but I want to make a book about PTSD as it pertains to our culture.
00:12:13.302 --> 00:12:14.462
Yeah, absolutely so.
00:12:14.462 --> 00:12:19.600
I know you mentioned that you had a website, so throw out that website so listeners can keep up with everything that you're up to.
00:12:20.811 --> 00:12:21.633
It's pretty long.
00:12:21.633 --> 00:12:26.211
So I'm going to say, I'm going to say this my first and my last name, terrell Atchison.
00:12:26.211 --> 00:12:30.015
T-e-r-r-e-l-l-l-a-t-c-h-i-s-o-n.
00:12:30.015 --> 00:12:32.058
Dot U-S.
00:12:32.058 --> 00:12:39.235
The number two dot author homepagecom, and there it gives you.
00:12:39.235 --> 00:12:40.197
All of you know it.
00:12:40.197 --> 00:12:46.780
It kind of it kind of highlights everything I'm working on, everything I've done, as well as I like to.
00:12:46.780 --> 00:12:48.690
I like to highlight other authors.
00:12:48.690 --> 00:12:50.235
So I have a couple of books.
00:12:50.235 --> 00:12:51.600
I have the books that Jamie has.
00:12:51.600 --> 00:12:54.018
I have the books of another author that's on there.
00:12:54.018 --> 00:13:08.551
You know she, she's a child author.
00:13:08.551 --> 00:13:09.211
She writes children's books.
00:13:09.211 --> 00:13:10.474
But I want to highlight other authors as well.
00:13:10.474 --> 00:13:12.856
So the name of my company is Authors of Melanation, melan their information.
00:13:12.856 --> 00:13:15.240
I definitely highlight them and put them on my website.
00:13:15.240 --> 00:13:23.136
So not only am I writing books about mental health, I want to spotlight other authors that are doing so as well.
00:13:25.543 --> 00:13:29.373
Okay, yeah, there you go, so close us out with some final thoughts.
00:13:29.373 --> 00:13:34.273
Maybe, if that was something I forgot to talk about that you would like to touch on, or any final thoughts you have for the listeners.
00:13:36.634 --> 00:13:37.615
Most importantly, of course.
00:13:37.615 --> 00:13:46.547
Yes, I'm here speaking about my book, nehemiah the Narcissist, but also I want to, like you know, I want to make sure I shed light on mental health.
00:13:46.547 --> 00:13:50.595
I want to make sure that if you have mental health, if you know someone that has mental health, I want to make sure that you are there.
00:13:50.595 --> 00:13:52.577
If you, or if you know someone that has mental health, make sure that you are there.
00:13:52.577 --> 00:13:55.644
If you know someone that has mental health, make sure that you show up for that particular person.
00:13:55.644 --> 00:13:56.894
However, that looks for them.
00:13:56.894 --> 00:13:57.717
You know that person.
00:13:57.717 --> 00:14:04.169
You know if they need just conversation, show up for the person that has mental health so that they can feel comfortable.
00:14:04.169 --> 00:14:17.041
Because the hardest thing for someone that has mental health and I will say it myself, I'm suffering through depression right now, today, as we speak, I personally, as we speak, am battling with suicide.
00:14:17.041 --> 00:14:19.605
You know that's something that I'm battling with.
00:14:19.605 --> 00:14:27.357
I'm going to therapy pretty aggressive and I'm not trying to highlight it and make everything about me.
00:14:27.357 --> 00:14:30.929
I want to speak to the subject because I want to make sure that people understand that I'm just not up here just trying to promote my book.
00:14:30.929 --> 00:14:37.135
I'm promoting mental health and I'm very vocal about what's going on with my mental health.
00:14:37.135 --> 00:14:46.855
I you know I've been diagnosed with severe depression from a number of things and you know, at the top of it is going to be the loss of my brother and how I'm dealing with it.
00:14:46.855 --> 00:14:52.975
But in regards to everyone else, if you know someone that has mental health, they're suffering from mental health.
00:14:52.975 --> 00:15:01.620
Be their shoulder, be their rock so that they can help get through it and also recommend that they go to some kind of therapy.
00:15:01.620 --> 00:15:02.885
If they don't want to do therapy, be their therapy.
00:15:02.885 --> 00:15:05.115
Listen, you know, don't make it about you.
00:15:05.115 --> 00:15:05.738
Make it more.
00:15:05.738 --> 00:15:09.293
Listen to them and hear them out, because they're struggling and they need, they need help.
00:15:09.293 --> 00:15:10.716
I know personally I was struggling.
00:15:10.716 --> 00:15:16.809
I know it sounds oh, you sound so strong because you're out, you're on this podcast and you're speaking about your mental health.
00:15:16.809 --> 00:15:22.169
But it took time, it took steps and I didn't do it before I was attempting to commit suicide.
00:15:22.169 --> 00:15:29.224
I was in the process where I was ready to go, I was ready to kill myself and it didn't matter about me having a book out.
00:15:29.224 --> 00:15:30.592
It didn't matter that I'm doing.
00:15:30.592 --> 00:15:34.643
I'm doing speaking events all over the country.
00:15:34.643 --> 00:15:38.371
It didn't matter that I have education or that I'm doing speaking events all over the country.
00:15:38.371 --> 00:15:39.869
It didn't matter that I have education or that I have a daughter that's about to graduate high school.
00:15:39.869 --> 00:15:41.245
I have a son that graduated from college already.
00:15:41.245 --> 00:15:45.488
It didn't matter that I have a loving household and a network of supporters.
00:15:45.889 --> 00:15:49.561
Mentally, my mind was telling me that I wasn't good enough and I wasn't worthy.
00:15:49.561 --> 00:15:58.857
So depression doesn't have a name, it doesn't have a race, it doesn't have a creed, it doesn't have a color, it's not a status thing, it doesn't care about any of that.
00:15:58.857 --> 00:16:00.798
Once it's in your mind, it's in your mind.
00:16:00.798 --> 00:16:08.721
So I want to be an advocate for social media and push it, because I don't want anybody to go through what I went through in regards to my loss of my brother.
00:16:08.721 --> 00:16:13.484
I don't want another mother to have to mourn for their son in regards to to mental health.
00:16:13.484 --> 00:16:18.505
I don't want kids to to to lose their parents because of mental health.
00:16:18.686 --> 00:16:20.988
As you know, so I'm, I'm preaching to the choir.
00:16:20.988 --> 00:16:27.261
I know you can say well, you know, you just were contemplating, doing that and knowing everything that you, that your brother, went through.
00:16:27.261 --> 00:16:30.110
But I never would have thought in a million years.
00:16:30.110 --> 00:16:32.413
I didn't think in December that I'd be in this position.
00:16:32.413 --> 00:16:37.543
But, lo and behold, I'm here and I'm not ashamed of it because I'm, because this is one of the things these are.
00:16:37.543 --> 00:16:42.892
This is one of the steps that my therapist has happened me go through, which is be open and honest and share.
00:16:42.892 --> 00:16:48.751
And if my pain helps another person get through their, their, their troubling times, and I'm, I'm.
00:16:48.751 --> 00:16:51.558
If I have to be the man to do it, then I'm okay with that.
00:16:51.558 --> 00:16:57.812
But again, to be the man to do it, then I'm okay with that.
00:16:57.812 --> 00:16:58.514
But again, any takeaways from this?
00:16:58.534 --> 00:17:00.100
I would honestly say take care of your mental health.
00:17:00.100 --> 00:17:09.576
I am trying to take care of mine and in the process, while you're taking care of your mental health, make sure you go out and purchase the book Nehemiah the Narcissist by Terrell Latchston.
00:17:09.576 --> 00:17:25.432
I thank you, guys, and I thank you, curtis, for giving me the platform to get to sit out here and talk with you.
00:17:25.432 --> 00:17:29.718
I'm excited to to see you grow, excited to hear that they watch you become this big, mega superstar, interviewing you know the stars of the world, and I can easily say, hey, look, I was there and I know the guy.
00:17:29.718 --> 00:17:30.159
You know I was there.
00:17:30.159 --> 00:17:35.747
Whenever you know we had a, he gave me, he gave me a couple of seconds of my time, of his time, to speak about me and speak about my book.
00:17:35.747 --> 00:17:41.002
So I thank you so much, sir, for any and everything, and I hope to have a continued relationship with you.
00:17:43.111 --> 00:17:44.214
Oh, most definitely, man.
00:17:44.214 --> 00:17:59.849
You already know that and I want to say that I thank you and say RIP to your brother, man, and I wish you the best and hope you know that, be praying for you, that you can make it through your issues, because you're a great person and you're doing great things.
00:17:59.849 --> 00:18:06.923
So hopefully you can fight through what you're, what you're battling and help others fight through what they're battling.
00:18:06.923 --> 00:18:17.465
