Megan Thee Stallion uses her platform to help.
The rapper Megan Thee Stallion launched a website called “Bad Bitches Have Bad Days Too,” apparently taken from the lyrics from his single “Anxiety,” to provide his fans with a mental health resource.
What a damn hot girl. The tweet was later shared by Megan, 27, on his official account. Smith also added a message the rapper reportedly sent his fans along with his website, saying, “Cool! We’ve created a resource center that can help you when you need help. Now go to http://badbitcheshavebaddaystoo.com and check. I love you.”
The websites include lists of free therapy organizations, national crisis text lines, suicide and crisis emergency telephone lines, substance abuse telephone lines, and national mental health helplines. It also provides a directory of resources for projects that benefit the Black community, including Therapy for Black Women and Men, Color Directory LGBTQ Psychotherapists, and Black Mental Health, to name a few.
The “Sweetest Pie” rapper has been candid about his mental health journey in the past. Last October, he announced that he had sought therapy following the deaths of his parents. Meghan’s mother, Holly Thomas, died in March 2019 after battling a brain tumor, and her father died when she was a teenager.
He also lost his grandmother shortly after his mother’s death.
At the premiere of season two of the Facebook series Serenity with Taraji, Megan said: “I lost both my parents. Now I’m like, ‘Oh my God, who am I talking to? What to do?’ I’m learning that it’s okay to ask for help. It’s okay to want to go to therapy.”
“As a black person, when you think about therapy, you’re like, ‘Oh my God, I’m weak,’ you think about medication, and you only think about the worst,” explains Megan at the time. “You see it on TV too; for example, therapy is not even presented as a good thing in the media. Now it’s safe to say, “Okay, a little busy now.” Somebody help me.’ “
