I am so proud of Alicia and Tamron for partnering to deliver this powerful message on mental health and wellness.
Those babies take a lot out of you. Growing life is no joke 🙏🏾❤
I was crying throughout this episode. Police are so inhumane, Blessings to you Alicia and a true friend.
This is so real. I’m happy she’s sharing and doing better. RIP to her mom.
I remember that night and was praying for her. It was definitely a mental breakdown. I also was thinking of her well-being and her career. So glad she is using her platform for awareness and clarification. Not that she owes that to anyone.
It took tremendous courage for Alicia to come on the show and speak so openly. It shows that she has a beautiful heart and deep desire to help others. What she experienced could happen to any one of us. A 5-day work week, 9 hours per day, contributes to poor mental health. Until we change that narrative, we will continue to struggle with our mental health. There is talk of cutting that down to a 4-day work week 6 hours per day which includes paid 1-hour lunch. Businesses are becoming more computerized, so this is entirely possible. Unfortunately, I just retired so I will not reap the benefits of this new way of living.

Thank you for sharing. Someone’s life will be saved as a result of your transparency. Thank you Tamron for the platform. 🙏🏾🙌🏾
A similar thing happened to me 8 years ago. I had a panic attack while with my husband camping in the woods. My husband drove me to a small town hospital. The doctor on duty was do rude to me I could not believe it. They didn't take me serious. He was argumentative with me. Rather than doing an EKG he was arguing with me. My husband at the time was parking the car so he couldn't see or hear how rude the guy was. He was downplaying what was happening . Never took blood work or anything like that. The nurse hooked me up to the EKG. The doctor noticed my heart rate was higher than normal yet he still did not take the necessary next steps to find out what was really going on. They always want to dismiss us or lock us up. The doctor sent me home with some pills to help me sleep which I never took because I didn't trust him. Panic attacks are real, don't assume we are all crazy or on something just do the job you went to school for, to help everyone.
Praying for her continued healing as she recovers from her mental health issue. I always say you never know what someone is going through 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Who said I wanted to cry this morning 😢😢
I'm so happy Alicia is not allowing mental illness stigma to impact her journey. I wish her all the best. ❤
It can truly be a devastating thing to happen. June of this year I had a bad panic attack which caused me to pass out. It turns out HBP and stress has been the culprit. I am working on self-care now. I am glad to see that I am not the only professional that this happened to.🙏🏾💚🙏🏾
So good to see Alicia. I’ve loved her since E News. Wishing her peace and wellness.
Thank you, Tamron and Alicia! A similar thing happened to me. It started with panic attacks that went on for a few weeks. A friend stayed with me. The panic attacks went away, but I still was not feeling like my typical self. I was still under a tremendous amount of stress working for a big corporation, as well as family stress. Too much. I finally had a full-on breakdown, tried to take my life, and ended up in the hospital by force. My family called 911. My sister unlocked the door to my apartment, and police and firemen descended upon my room, at least 5 big guys. Some states, even if you're calm and you ask for help, a sheriff is sent to take you to a hospital, you will get chained down in some states, not all. I was not given food. Not one nurse or doctor came in the room. I was in the ER and I was ignoree. It does not matter, race, creed or color, the mental health system is broken. It is terrible what happened to Alicia and what happens to all mental health patients. If you ever feel off, please take care of yourself. If you feel even a little off, I ask everyone, men and women, talk to a counselor. It is not weak. Sometimes we just need an objective person to talk to us. Blessing to Alicia for telling her story. ❤❤ There is nothing wrong with you. P.s every hospital has a "psych ward" so I don't know why they did not go down to talk to her and sent her away. Typical.
As a person who has struggled with mental health for 21 years, I'm so disgusted on how Alicia was treated. Unacceptable! Alicia is such an amazing, strong woman! Thank you for telling your story! You are an advocate for all!
I'm disgusted. NYPD isn't equipped to handle mental health crises.
Well I know people who have personally worked with Alicia and said she is beyond difficult and mean! The girl has to do some serious work on her mental issues and not taking it on others. NYPD was doing its job.
i KNOW Alicia personally and she is mean girl and deserved what she got. KARMA
PMRT ....trained psychological social workers or professionals are needed with law enforcement 🙋
This was a truly powerful and amazing show today. Thank you Alicia for being willing to share your story and recovery with us. God bless you and your family.
Aw beautiful relationship with mom. ❤ Sorry she experienced this but glad to see the restoration.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I had a mental break after a pregnancy too. When I came back to reality. I was so embarrassed. I always thought I had it all together and for that to happen to me, I felt so ashamed. I’m currently working through it. All the best to her and those cute babies 😊🥰🙂
😢this is a powerful episode. Pressure burst pipe so I totally get where she is coming from. God bless her and I wish her and her babies all the very best. 🎉🎉🎉
So sad how they treated her, all they have to do is just be more kind and friendly.
This is deep! Glad she's okay now. 🙏🙏🤗🤗
God bless you and keep you Alicia. So brave! I would love to read your story in a book or even a documentary to educate others on what NOT to do and what TO DO when helping during a mental health crisis.
I pray that Alicia has a good support system to help her raise those adorable twins. The challenges of returning to the same type of work, now coupled with the responsibilities of raising very young twins, can be very stressful. I also know what panic attacks are like. I eventually had to leave the stressful job that was triggering them. May God Bless Alicia and her precious Babies. Amen❤❤
Omg...am cutting onions here...what a story..so happy you are telling the story..
Thank you Tamron for bringing this to the public. I’ve been on LCSW in the state of California for the last 21 years. Los Angeles.
County has a system of care. The client , family friends and even the police can call the Access center. A team will be dispatched, two licensed mental health professionals. The mental health therapist will make an assessment. The team is called, PMRT, psychiatric mobile response team. The therapist makes a decision to place someone on a 5150. We arrange hospitalization and transportation.
the increase in demand has been stifling to this service however until a better service is created this is the best service I have ever seen.
Thank you Alicia for your Streisand courage. My condolences 🙏🏾
I understand my son had a manic episode the entire family had to be involved in so many communities mental is on the rise no help to help no mental hospitals just a few I am a health care worker and I see so many different cases of people having a mental health issues it's very sad Alicia thank you for sharing your story ❤🙏🏾🙏🏾
Totally the body goes in to shock, Thank God you got help at the right time❤
I love Alicia even more ❤️🙏
God how this touched me esp since I lost my mom 6 months ago on top of my nephew a week before then two months later my uncle and my ex then two more family members!!! My mental health has been rough
I cried with you all yesterday.
I am so glad that you are doing better.
Is it possible to be stressed, and don't realize it? The thought of you being treated like a criminal just irks me! God sits high and looks low ( Matthew 25:40).
I will continue to pray for total healing for you, in Jesus Name!
Hats of Tamron team, this is good journalism
Love the return to the signature look.
We have got to train people how to help those have a break down..🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Yo Tamron I love your show and your energy. From a man to woman your show rocks. I’m not surprised your an award winner. I love real talk. I don’t have a PHD but I should. ❤️🤟
Very Courageous Lady!!!
This information was so important to share. Thank you Mrs. Quarles for your courage in sharing your story and Tamron for providing another platform. I appreciate the education on dialing 988 in a case like this for anyone I know.
God Covering be with her always 🙏
God bless!! She truly has a good friend by her side 💓
A year and a half ago my 25 year old daughter had a mental health crisis. We tried to call the mental health crisis response team but they sent out 2 males who insisted that my daughter had to travel ALONE with them to a psych hospital. I refused to let her go. On another occasion, an EMT threatened to press charges against my daughter when she panicked in the ambulance and hit the EMT. Again, she was made to travel alone with strangers. The charges were dropped but this was the information they shared with me as soon as i met them at the hospital! Our mental health response system is BROKEN and 988 is a joke! 😢
THANK You for sharing & Thank you for this update. #TeamAlicia
THIS IS HEARTWRENCHING! THIS IS SO REAL TO MANY! JESUS KEEP HER MIND! NOTHING LIKE A MOTHERS LOVE!
Lord have mercy. This should NOT have been handled this way. Mental illness is real, and how the hospital did not know the symptoms especially since friends were on the scene. A concerned police would have made sure that she had shoes & clothes. She was not a criminal on the run.😢 this story needs to go viral so that all will learn.
Love her. Congrats on your blessings.
😢 this is Exactly how God uses us. To go through, get through and follow through with awareness. I’m glad that you’re living on/in purpose. 💜
Wow. I didn’t know this. I’m so sorry.
RIP to her mom, I lost my mom 2 months ago
Good stuff!!
I need more information about what did she put out there in social media I don't understand what they are really discribing I don't get it what are they advocating for about the reference point of this mental health break down crisis
I also wanna know that. Maybe she’s not married and was disappointed I really don’t know. And I’m just landed on the story
Unfortunately too late so many people goes through this. My husband’s friend’s father was killed by the police in his own home. Unarmed. A senior citizen, he called 911 to get help because the police was there demanding he let them in. I mean I’m sorry but we’re being very nice in saying police need training on how to deal with the mentally ill. Well one thing that is common sense. Someone in duress should not be treated like a criminal nor be killed especially when they’re not endangering anyone else. Like if it was them or there loved one you not have to teach them the difference from a criminal to a persons having a break down. Back in the day we would call the pastor & then a psychiatrist, or your local mental hospital. If late at night family or friends would stay with that e person. We never thought to call the police🤷🏽♀️because in our minds they were only for crimes.
Police need more mental health sensitivity training N have social workers come with them for most interventions!!!
This is so unfair. No one should be treated like this. I totally understand 😔 I am also Glad for my mom. She has been a strong woman in my life to help me through tough times. I glad u had your mom to help you.
Girrrl you have a book title right there; "That is a Mom"
🙏🏽
where is the father?
😢
Praying for her healing🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 in Jesus Name!
Who in the world did she pregnant by? Pretty as she is!
💔💔💔
Thank God for the police
😢😢😢😢😢
I just retired last month in my 20 year career as a psychology professor l have NEVER heard of 988??? What?
Then you should know. It’s the new crisis line.
It became available in July 2022. Perhaps you should inform your prior employer so that they're informed and can pass it on.
Then where were you.
I am so tired of this happening to "Us!" Black folk?... Damn!!!! ENOUGH! ALREADY!!! 🤬 MAY HER MOTHER REST IN PEACE! 🙏🏽❤️
You two have a god given platform. Train police officers and 911 operators on how to handle mental health situations. More people would have still been alive if they were trained properly on mental health incidents!
🙇🏽♀️😇🙏🏽🙌🏽🏁 Powerful 🤞🏼🌞🌟🌻💝🏁
Talk to someone please get the help you need
So she had a mental health breakdown because she found out she was pregnant? and then she intentionally recorded herself on Instagram having the breakdown? I'm really trying to understand this.
I don't know what trait police are missing that continuously has them treat people so poorly criminal treatment to this woman in a mental health crisis that does not pose a threat and is in crisis!
Another police horror story. It doesn't matter what your status is and I believe this whether noone else does or not that they treat you differently because you are Black.
No true. It is the unhealthy drinks and foods, lack of exercising, lack of sleep, and other unhealthy activities we do cause mental health. If you take care of yourself before, during, and after pregnancy, you will not have mental issues. It is the only things you can do.
There are natural way getting pregnancy
Wow. Calling police made everything worse.
EMS should be trained to deal with these types of situation, not police. It's illness.
Never call the police. EVER.
It’s horrible how black women are always forced to be strong black women!
To heck with that, I rather be free to not always have yo be strong!
God bless you all
Alicia doesn't speak about a husband or boyfriend. Is she single?
Honey work is never that serious for me whew seriously I’m not about to be on burnout. Her friends are the real hero’s but she could have been dangerous to her as well
I am sorry, but perhaps the Police cared a little too much. Tgats probably why they reacted extreme.
I don't get it! Most pregnancies are unplanned. It sounds like she threw a tantrum😢 anyone whose phone rings like hers did that night is truly loved.
Honestly, I don’t think the police did anything wrong considering that mental health is unpredictable and they didn’t know if she’s suicidal. Although I don’t have the full picture and I wasn’t there. You don’t get shoes when someone is potentially suicidal. Each situation is different so there isn’t any cookie cutter response but more of a guideline. They can’t give special treatment due to celebrity. There is just too much information missing here. I think she’s saving her career for the most part
First of all, there should have been a Crisis team that consist of mental health therapist and the police. You dont need the full story to know that police are not equipped to assess a mental health crisis. Also, a pregnant woman being chained to a bed with no water or food is inhumane. The only information that is missing is JUSTICE. The police system in America needs a complete overhaul. There are cities that recognize this and are creating Crisis teams to include mental health therapist. In this case, the police mishandled the situation because they were not equipped or trained. She should not have been sent to jail but a hospital for a mental health observation and assessment.
Approx 10 yrs ago, a relative had a mental health crisis. The landlord called and informed us. The white landlord had trepidation on contacting the police due to "police brutality against black and brown people". She knew my relative as a kind compassionate soul that kept their apt extremely clean. Yet, in a crisis my relative became fearful that someone was trying to kill them. They became a recluse and beginning signs of a hoarder. I contacted my circle of therapist friends, and they told us to request a mental health therapist with the police. We were able to get help without my relative in handcuffs. They were taken to a mental health facility for observation NOT jail. We are forever grateful to the landlord that wanted to ensure our relative received the support for mental health not be treated as a criminal or even killed.
So, these are things to consider when a loved one is having a mental health crisis regardless of "celebrity" status. Also, in mental health facilities, patients are provided with a care package clothes, socks, and toiletries. She would've been shown compassion with simply being provided socks for her bare feet. This isn't "special treatment" but Compassion.
Honestly I’d rather the police treat her how they did then for them not to take it seriously enough and there be casualties
She’s not a teenager why was she freaking out?
I know Alicia - she has severe mental issues and has been mean to people in the workplace. I hope she gets the help she needs.
