  1. Pero may point yung commenter, kung may guidance at faith matatakot talaga ang tao gumawa ng ganyang kasi naka imprint na sa utak nila that it is a sin. Aminin natin, faith really helps sa mga depressed na tao. It somehow clears your mind, may role talaga sya. Ang point ni Kuya Kim is about science the other one is spiritual.

    1. I disagree with you. feeling righteous as if he knows the scripture but saying those things to a grieving father makes me think he doesnt know God. His words doesnt show kindness, respect nor compasion.

    2. I am a devout Christian and at the same time a nurse. I work with mental health patients. Please stop saying if you have faith, hindi dapat mangyari. Their brain is wired differently.

    3. People still engage in premarital sex, adultery, gambling - just to give examples. Andami kong kilalang makasalanan na palasimba. May guidance & faith din naman 'tong mga taong ito.

      I'm not saying I'm perfect either ha.

      Dun sa minention kong examples - people are fully aware that they are sinning. Your statement "naka imprint na sa utak nila that it is a sin" is no longer applicable then.

      Na-clinically diagnose ka ba ng depression? You wouldn't understand if you're not. Ang dali kasing sabihin pray pray pray.

    7. My son is clinically depressed..therapy , gamot ,naka work from home Ako para maalalayan lahat ng love ,prayers , lahat ng support andyan kami pero may suicidal attempts pa rin. Wala kang alam holier than thou kaya manhimik ka

    8. I know some of you may not agree, pero hindi ba kayo nanunuod ng mga interviews ng mga clinically nadiagnosed ng depression? Some of them mention kasi na thru faith kaya sila kumakapit, or thru faith kaya nila nalampasan. May mga depression naman kasi manageable. Ang point kasi malay natin na it could work on her, cause it worked on others.

    9. True. i have a schizophrenic sister and my dad never abandoned her. He took care of her the best of his ability and kneeled to God every night to protect my sister. She is now currently in the US with my mom, still in meds and stable.

    13. Poor kuya Kim. People are blaming him for not knowing. Can we be sensitive and have sympathy for once? It didnt help na publicize ang cause of death. Pero still give them privacy

    14. 10:09 and 3:02 understandable but we should also know n parents should let their children/child be on their own. To let their wings fly. Kahit mahirap for a parent/s ito, they need to do it eventually. Kailangan din mg mga bata n tumayo on their own for their own growth.

    15. Easy to say this and that until it happens to you

    17. Kim, ang buhay weather weather lang. Most of the time, baka di mo Rin alam na self-righteous din ang dating mo sa mga pinag sasabi mo... Feeling "know-it-all".. Kapag ikaw tinamaan, bully na... Yun nga ang point, Her FAITH with your close guidance could have possibly helped her.. Aminin mo na na the "neglect" the child suffered as a child na inamin mo rin pinag sisihan mo, plays a great role..The resulted in the dynamics of your relationship that the child didn't want to involve you in her problems..
      Lesson nalang sa mga parents: Guidance cannot be "forced" just anytime we feel like giving it . The child should TRUST YOU FULLY AND LOVE and RESPECT YOU ENOUGH TO LISTEN TO YOU and yes, it would have mattered. Makakatulong sa pag gabay while one is clinically depressed.

  2. Ang sad lang na they all know she’s mentally ill pero hinayaan na malayo sa kanila, wlang kasama tapos 19??? Sana di nila hinayaan mag isa

    1. Correct! Sure she is of age na pero if may ganung problem pala, they need to give her extra guidance lalo na sinabak pa nya mag social media. Even yung walang depression pag pinasok yan they end up not right mentally, what more sya.

      Delete
    2. 12:15 agree!Family support is very important sa taong may severe depression.Professional help medications therapies are needed lalo na dito sa Amerika.Sana kahit isa sa magulang ng bata tinutukan sya may kaya naman sila kahit isa di na magtrabaho.Alam naman nila from the very start the girl is struggling sa mental health nya at sa social media pa lang nya marami ng bashers/haters at yun ang isa sa mga nagpa trigger sa kanya..

  3. I just finished watching Emman Atienza on Toni Talks. 😟😟😟 I’m not blaming anyone pero how come na hindi napansin ng parents nya yung mga nangyayari? 😢 I feel sorry for her. I hope she’s at peace now.🙏

    2. The family was aware. What do you expect them to do? Bantayan siya 24/7? Yung anak nga nila Noni nasa bahay nila when it happened. You can't just tie them down and think yun ang solution.

    1. Ang hirap maging parent to a child with bipolar or depressed. Ang hirap hirap. Sometimes u feel that by just being there, u are doing a good job and sometimes naman u feel that by being there, you are worthless and worse, you are causing your child more pain. Ang hirap to know when to stay still, to move forward or to step backwards. Letz give the parents slack.

  5. What if the real solution we’re looking for isn’t in luck or timing but in where we spend our time?

    More hours in church, reading the Bible, praying, serving, and grounding ourselves in truth instead of partying, drinking, and numbing the noise.

    Maybe circumstances wouldn’t just look different. Maybe we would.

    RIP

  6. I think the greatest lesson here is, if ever may history yung fam member na unstable yung mental health, dapat hindi pinapabayaan mag-isa. Hindi porket tapos na siya mag therapy way back, hindi na babalik yun. Ayun na nga nangyari. Wag nalang natin iblame yung parents, may it be a lesson na maging observant din tayo sa mga fam members natin.

    1. thats not how it works. even if there are 100 people around them, depressed people still get depressed. its an internal struggle & sadly, many still find a way to off themselves even with a whole support system, when they cant handle it anymore.

    2. Same question din ako, kaya lang nakakatakot mag tanong,baka sbhin basher or manahimik. Yung question k kasi, meron ba sya gamot iniinom regularly? May doctor ba sya? May kasama ba sya sa US sa bahay? Gaano ba katindi ang depression nya? Lagi ba sya nag iisip ng ganon? Kasi sa USA nandyan na lahat ,magagawa mo nalang is seek help.

    3. ‘Magagawa mo nalang is to seek help’- to give you an idea, psychiatrists in LA cost around $100-300 per hour. I have a niece who shared her story that during her high school days she’s been bullied, kept it to herself and when she graduated and got a job, she started seeing a shrink. Bullies deeply scarred a person mentally, physically and emotionally. Sometimes even how closely knit your family is, you keep quiet because you don’t want to be a burden, even if they keep reminding you that they are always there to listen, guide and help.
      You don’t know how they feel, how they think unless you’ll be in the same situation.
      Let us all be reminded that there’s a grieving family.. kindness and prayers are the best we can give.

    4. If you’re in the US and have suicidal thoughts, you or someone can call 911 and that can be a reason for a legal hold.

  9. grabe ang mga makadyos kuno na ganyan. nalilimutan ang sympathy at humanity makapagsermon lang. if you think the parents failed the child then they are already paying for it enduring their beloved's death. hindi pa sapat sa kanya yon?

  10. Tumpak si Kuya Kim. Overly self-righteous itong kung sinong Joy ito acting like she is God’s spokesperson! Like a Pharisee uber judgmental na walang empathy or kindness sa kapwa!

    Only God can read our hearts. He is the only one who can reward and punish anyone for whatever. When Emman did what she did, due to her mental condition, she wasn’t in her right faculties. It was no longer her making that decision. God is love. He is our Grand Creator. God loves Emman. Present tense yan!

  11. Holier-than-thou netizen with unsolicited advice about parenting. Ang tapang ng statement - "This is an open rebuke".

    Andaming unsolicited advice sa other posts ni FP na kesyo the parents should have done this, that, etc. Tandaan - spectators lang po tayo. Nakiki-marites lang tayo. Emman is gone. Sana makiramay po tayo ng maayos.

  13. Maybe she stopped taking her meds thinking that everything was going well with her while she was in LA?

  14. Those saying na she’s in the states and had access to everything, actually that’s not as easy as how you make it sound. Daming factors such as insurance and the willingness of the patient. Emman was an adult and you can’t just put her on a 5150 hold or put her on a conservatorship. Same people judging the parents are the same people who wanted “freedom” for britney spears

    2. Masyadong ibang issue kay Britney. People just see her as money and nung nakakita sila ng opening to control her, they grabbed it and ayaw na pakawalan. Sure maybe for a time, she was not in a good place pero nung nag stable naman na, they still controlled her. For a woman na sinasabing not capable, mas marami pa syang nagawa kumpara sa taong walang issue. She is not mentally unwell, she is just quirky.

    3. 3:47 am, you cant blame people , if they think that way, ur in the first world country, mentall illness in the usa is like a flu... agree emman is an adult, but her struggle is not a secret...fyi she was previlage, if you can afford to study in the US, with ur own house, u can afford a doctor and prescription meds.. im not blaming her parents, im blaming people, who thinks they know about mental illness, but if someone ask question, they easily offended..

  15. Hi i am battling bipolar disorder for many years and i am also a Christian. I understand Emman coz napaka hirap ng bipolar disorder extreme happy or sad madami meds kelangan take mood stablizer anti depressant sleeping pills. Pero sa biyaya ng Lord matagal nako di nag meds coz of baby work up but plan ko ulit mag meds coz nag iba talaga ma apektuhan din mga tao sa paligid mo and sabi ng doctor its a lifetime medication pero naniwala ako wala impossible sa Lord.
    Ilang beses na din ako ng suicide nung wala pa ako relasyon sa Lord and
    I wont deny the fact pag na dedepress ako minsan naiisip ko pa din mag suicide kasi you feel hopeless at yun pinapa feel sakin ng enemy but nag stop sakin ay ang faith ko sa panginoon ang takot ko sa kanya. Kahit matagal na ako Christian minsan sumasagi pa din sa isip ko yun.

    Kaya sana, intindihin din natin si Kuya Kim. Isa siyang grieving father. Hindi ko sinasabing tama o mali sila . only God can judge. Mabuti man o masama, Diyos lang talaga ang nakakaalam ng lahat. 🙏💔

  17. I’m a devout Catholic. We were taught about the act of taking one’s own life, but it’s not for me or for us to judge. Unfortunately and sadly, a majority of people still do not understand mental illness. Those who are experiencing such don’t have the capacity to understand the repercussions any more of that act. We may have different opinions with what happened to his daughter, but think first if your opinion is going to hurt the family left behind who is grieving the loss. Would it be too much for you to shut it this time and keep that opinion to yourself? Is compassion too expensive for you to give?

    2. prayers work when you also help yourself. however, mental illness has episodes. depende kung gaano na ka-serious yung condition, hindi na lang talaga yun madadala sa prayers lang. everyone has to do something about it. hindi porke't pinagagamot or may therapy, hahayaan na lang yung patient. hopefully maging aware ang madami na mental illness is a serious illness like cancer. yun ang hindi alam ng madami.

  21. Caring for someone with mental issues, especially pag anak mo, is not an easy task. A parent would want to care for their children without suffocating them. gusto mong bantayan, but at the same time you try hard to balance it by giving them space and letting them have freedom to make their own choices kahit papaano. Hindi naman mababantayan ng 24/7, and i don't the child would want that too.. This is a truly heartbreaking situation...
