I opened up to my mom that I needed Therapy....

And it was the best decision ever.

I feared na magalit sya or say those typical things na "Ayan kakaselpon mo yan" or "Di ka kasi malapit kay Lord" (kasi we grew up in a Catholic household), but I was wrong. I made her understand that even Psych majors are not immune to mental health issues, thus needing the necessary intervention from fellow Psychologists. She supported me in my journey and wished for the best outcome.

She said she was proud of me for opening up unlike before where I would not say anything.

and she does have a point. For that, I'm proud of me, too.

Ma, thank you. Kahit alam natin hindi tayo perfect. 🥹

To those going through challenging times, I'm with you and I support you. We can make it out alive.
