With many being forced to stay home and isolate in an effort to fight the pandemic, it can take a toll on mental health. Actress Taraji P. Henson was among those who were severely affected by the new norm, so much so that she even contemplated taking her own life.

In December 2020, Henson had opened up about her experience on her Facebook Watch show Peace Of Mind, alongside co-host Tracie Jade and psychologist LaShonda Green. What helped her through the healing process was sharing the struggle with her viewers.
