  3. Not posting for pity but for attention. Get a therapist not a panel of social media audience.

    3. That's true kaylangan ng attention ng mga taong suffering from mental health issues. Hindi naman natin lahat alam what goes on behind the camera and imposible na hindi sya mag seek ng treatment at pabayaan ng magulang nya. Pinost nya yan para sa mga taong tulad mo na ang kitid ng utak na walang ginawa kundi ijudge sya or sila na wala naman alam sa struggles na pinagdadaanan nila just to get better.

    4. Lol, wtf? Saying this is so harmful to anyone struggling mentally. Yes, personal problems are best shared with professional help. Though you're clearly missing the point of his post I think. He's just encouraging his followers to take care of their mental well-being. Have some sympathy.

    10. I am currently experiencing anxiety and is fearing that this may lead to depression. Kahit paano gumaan pakiramdam ko reading kobe's post. Knowing na people regardless of who the are, are similar sa akin in terms of feeling down/depressed.

      My mom has depression and is on medication. For depressed people, takot nila ung malaman ng ibang tao na they are depressed. When I see post like this, gumagaan loob ko. I want people to normalize depression kagaya ng ibang sakit. If people post about their struggle with cancer, for example, most of us feel it's inspiring. Sana if someone post about depression, ganun din. It may not be a physical pain, pero mental pain is still pain.

    11. 12:26 you're one of the reasons why people have depression. You lack sympathy and empathy. In these times, people need a lot of love and affirmation.
      Hugs to this big man! You I'll get through this! Pray!

    12. 12:26 - Sana ikaw din be kind!

    13. 12:26 easy for you to say. Be kind... but meron ka ba nyan? Hope this will not happen to you.

  5. Wag puro bash yung iba dyan. He might save someone by sharing his own mental battles.

    1. Exactly. It take guts to admit one's failures even more so to admit that you almost gave up on life.

  6. Bakit ba sya nade depress, he has the looks, career, lovelife may family naman?

    1. Siguro pressure tsaka posibleng nadiscriminate sya ng teammates and/or coaches kasi nga pinoy sya. Asians are not that welcome in tha basketball world in the US, based on Jeremy Lin's experiences.

    2. Porket ba may ganon silang status hindi na pwede madepress? Tao din naman sila at may pakiramdam.

    3. Hindi sapat sa taong depressed lahat yang binanggit mo. Wala sa itsura, pera, lovelife... nasa mental health talaga. It's deeper than you can probably comprehend.

      Delete
    4. Baks, iba ang atake ng mental. You think kababawan but it really is not. More understanding and compassion sana to people who suffer from depression. Because IT IS REAL.

    5. 12:39 Seriously? Di mo ba alam na he came from a broken family? Both parents nya may kanya kanya ng family. Isa sa mga rason kaya maraming depressed ngayon dahil din sa family. Know that once na may broken family, the child will suffer the most! Kahit pa sabihin mo na okay sila both sides pero iba pa din pagkasama kayo na complete at happy!

      (Galing din ako sa broken family and i'm depressed since nagkaisip ako.Once you are depressed , you will never heal..you will only get better *atleast )

    6. 12:39 One cause of depression is the chemical imbalance in the brain. Kaya kahit may itsura ka, maganda ang karera at supportive ang pamilya kung may problema ka sa neurotransmitters, may tendency na atakihin ka ng depression.

      Delete
    7. Yung mga Meron na ng lahat ang mga taong prone sa depression dahil wala na silang means to thrive

      Delete
    8. 12:39 it could be chemical imbalance. or just how your biology is made up. not something you can turn on and off.

    9. Kung para lang sa pangit at Mahirap ang depression, madami na ang namatay. Ano ka ba, mental state pinag uusapan dito. Hindi physical

    10. Yung mental health issues kasi marami nagsestem sa childhood. Naagapan silang magkapatid pero yung formative years medyo turbulent at yung mga ganung trauma minsan pag di nareresolve lumalabas in the form of mental illness when you reach 25-ish. Until recently si kobe and his brother had a lot of anger in them and when life gets more messy and complex, which happens when you get older, nagsispill sa ibang areas ng life yung mga unresolved na bagay na pinupush down mo inside.

    11. Yung iba hindi pa siguro nakarinig ng story ng taong nadedepress even without problems. Basta lang dw may araw na ganun feeling nya.

    12. Iba-iba man tayo ng estado sa buhay, may diff set of struggles and problems tayo. Na feel ko dati ang depression when I was living alone sa mababang sahod. Na depress ako when I was earning 6-digit pero malayo sa family. Hindi sa lahat ng bagay, kahit halos nasa sayo na lahat ay struggle-free na.

  7. I feel Kobe. Mahirap magsabe how low we can feel one day. I went through severe anxiety nung nagkaron ng cancer anak ko. Cant sleep, cant eat. Halos umiyak ako everyday. Masarap umiyak kasi napapagod ako hanggang sa makatulog. Ang hirap magsabi how I feel kasi baka sabihin umaarte ako or dagdag sa problema namin ng anak ko. But now, i just take it one day at a time. I try not to think of any negative things. Hindi namin kelangan ng awa, kelangan namin is understanding and prayers.

    2. Grabe nakakaiyak naman makabasa ng mga ganito.

      Mommy, please know that your feelings are valid. And I hope you could find someone with whom you can share your feelings with. Mabigat dalhin yan mag isa, you need a support system.

      I’m keeping you both in my prayers. God bless!

    3. 12:55 that's right take one day at a time, I find crying cathartic too and exercise if you can. I'll say a prayer for you and your child.

    4. 12:55 whoever you are, know that I am praying for you. I pray for healing sa iyong anak. I pray for you to be strong and be surrounded with people who understands you and help you get thru this. Hugs to you and your child.

  8. Ito na nga ba sinasabi ko eh, only in the Philippines na hindi pinagtutuunan ng pansin ang mental health! Sana man lang mas maging open tayo sa bagay na yan na pagtuunan man lang sana ng pansin ng Department of Health

  10. I am sensitive to this issue coz ako mismo nadepress 2 times sa buhay ko but somehow wala akong amor sa mga katulad nya na clout chaser sa social media..take note gusto ko naman si Kobe. Kasi uso uso yan now..hindi nyo ba pansin? Kung hindi man mental issue, mag come out na lgbt or kung ano pang gimik. Wala kang energy pag truly depressed ka like gusto mo na tumigil na lahat and ayaw mo ng ingay..in fact di ka active sa social media. Alam kong sasabihin nyo na we cope differently and wag tayong dismissive pero naman..case to case kasi yan and some are just plain sad and mali naman na biglang i consider na kaagad na depressed. Anyway, kung may maipapayo ako, 2 words..STOP IT..kung may naglalaro sa utak mo..STOP IT. Easier said than done but it still can be done.

    1. 4:12 iba iba ang depression sa bawat tao. Masyado lang nakakahon sa stereotype na walang energy kuno, may mga functional at magaling lang magtago. Magresearch ka. Ilang clicks away lang. Pero importante na magconsult sa doctor at malaman ang diagnosis.

    2. 1:23 true iba iba but still u cannot fake it just like that na totally life is good. Meron at merong something na mapapansin. Di ko sinasabing chika lang yung sinabi ni Kobe and given sa nangyari sa kanya, i agree na mejo may hinayang feeling dahil nawala yung opportunity but to consider it depression kaagad e debatable. Lalo na now na nagpost sya nyan, do you think walang bahid ng clout chasing? Also, yung mga kabataan now kasi napagsabihan lang and sumama loob depression na

  11. He is brave for admitting this and it also gave a message to others that it is normal to feel depression but you need to be strong.

  12. People are all for bashing/cancelling other people until someone dies. Let's be kind. Hindi natin alam kung anong pinagdaanan nila. And depression isn't about not appreciating what you have. Kaya tama na yung bakit depressed eh gwapo naman, mayaman, may kaya. Depression is a medical condition. It has nothing to do with the things around you. It's in your head. It's crippling. It's a struggle.

    Please be kind. And please take care of yourself.

  13. Ang layo nila ni Andre. Si Andre kenkoy, ito seryoso parang medyo mataray pa.

  14. I dont know if I can call it depression yung nangyari sa akin. I found my husband cheated on me, mabigat hanggang na hospital ako. pagkalabas ko nang hospital, iba ibang emotion.. Hindi ko to makalimutan na sinabi ng husband ko na parang he's mocking me " ay magpa check up ka na baka may depression ka na" after nya sinabi umalis ako na umiiyak.
