Summary:
Charlamagne Tha God details the ways anxiety has been a driving force his life since childhood. For many years, he stressed over being unpopular in school, potential rejection by women, being ugly, and worst of all, falling into the life of stagnation or crime that caught up so many of his friends and family in his hometown of Moncks Corner, South Carolina. Even after achieving national prominence as a radio personality, Charlamagne still found himself paralyzed by thoughts that he wouldn't be able to take his career to the next level. But now, he is working through these problems with help from mentors, guests on his show, and therapy. He knows therapy and showing weakness are anxiety producing in the black community. By sharing his personal story, he wants to clear a path for others in hopes that they won't feel shame while dealing openly with their mental health.
