Shout out sa mga nalagpasan na ang depression and anxiety jan. May you all have a happy and healthy and more blessing life. Embrace depression and anxiety that's what makes you stronger again STRONGER!!!

11 years na ako may depression at anxiety. 2x napo ako nag suicide attempt. Please wag niyo ijudge ang mga depressed or may anxiety kesyo wala pananampalatay sa Dios kesyo nababaliw kesyo iniisip lang. Di po ganon yun. Instead tulungan niyo sila maka recover! Be a helping hand, support them in all good things! Wag maging haters nila.

This is so hard! Hirap tlga. Yong feeling na bgla ka nlang iiyak, then may times na parang ayaw mo ng gumising, gusto mo lang nkahiga in a dark room, doing nothing. Hirap kalabanin si self. And it's true na may times na may bubulong sayo to end life. Been experiencing this for years already, maybe due to traumatic and bad experiences. Until now, I keep trying to fight and pray harder. What I usually do, is everytime natritrigger na nman ako, I just all want to be alone, listen to Christian songs, watch movies, basta anything na ma busy yong utak ko or I make sure to be surrounded with people na nakaka good vibes. And I hope I can still continue to fight. I hope and pray that everyone will have the strength and courage to face and fight. I know it isn't that easy but keep trying. Keep safe all!🥺💖🙏

Overthinking is what triggers my anxiety. Ang hirap kasi wala ka mapagsabihan. People I expect to comfort me are the ones judging me and telling me na it's just all in my head. My pillows and drawings are the only witnesses of my anxiety. Mabuti na lang at napagtanto ko na mahal ako ni Papa Jesus, His love and promises took away my anxieties. I still suffer from anxiety from time to time but I know now how to cope up with it😊

Yung may mga depression sila yung mga gusto ng mamatay Yung may mga anxiety naman sila yung sobrang takot mamatay

Bilis ko maanxious kapag may marinig ako na tungkol sakin , habang may naiisip ako na paulit ulit sa utak ko naiiyak ako o nagagalit.

people need to watch these kind of videos, yung hindi lightly delivered lng ang facts, something people can understand easily and at the same time can find it relatable and informative 💯

"Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on to the present moment"

When I had panic attacks last year ginagawa ko talaga was taking a cold bath. Then I exercise and clean my apartment even at 1 am in the morning...

Hello po!! Nakatulong po sakin yung 1. Pag ayos ng sleeping pattern ko. I sleep and wake at reasonable time. 2.Exercise Atleast 30 mins everyday 3. Eat healthier 4. I focus on things that I can control. 5. Stay hydrated :)))

Journals really help po talaga Doc. Kasi I suffered anxiety. Bago matulog at paggising mo, nag iisip ka na naman. Tapos na.s.stress ka kasi nasayang oras mo kakaisip umaabot ng tatlong oras na walang katapusan. So I try journals po like everyday. Lahat ng emotions ko, anger, sadness, dissapointment, tinatayp ko siya sa laptop, then ginagawa kong portfolio after a week. And as of now, na.realized ko na d na ko nag iisip gaano kasi naubusan ata dahil lahat na naisulat na. I hope this will helps para sa mga taong nagsu.suffer. Gusto ko pa kasing mabuhay so I was trying my best na mabuhay. Laban lang guys.

Been diagnosed with anxiety and mild depression recently, I am now at my first week of medication, and its really really hard..I never thought this would happen to me, coz I used to be so jolly and sociable person. I am just hoping na gumaling nako at bumalik sa dating ako...

This kind of video is what we need now a days. Thank you Doc Alvin for this!

Ganyan din ako last Feb 2020 umiiyak bigla walang kadahilanan, walang gana kumain, hnd makatulog, higit sa lahat may bumubulong na mag pakamatay kna..... Sa awa ng dios nalagpasan ko siya dahil narin sa mga doctor ng National Center for Mental Health ... thank you sa inyo NCMH

it sounds cheesy, but crying it out, and pray harder, write it down to let go of the thoughts.. it works most of the time... 💜

Salamat Doc, para sa paghimay-himay ng topic na ito. This is one of the most informative videos I've watched about depression and anxiety.

I'll delete this if no one will notice it. hahaha It's suffocating, it's exhausting. Whenever it happens it feels like para kang nasa room without windows and doors. Mostly sa nakakaranas, walang options, walang choices or isa lang talaga yung naiisip na, yung tapusin 'yon mag isa. I'm struggling since I was 14, and now I'm 21 and it's still getting fvcking worst 👁️👄👁️ A lot of times before mag self harm, to transfer the pain, twice akong muntik hindi maka graduate, (high school and shs), kasi madalas akong inaatake, ayaw ako papasukin sa school, lagi akong tulog sa school, may time na sinasaktan na ako noon kasi ayaw ko pumasok, pero sabi ko okay lang saktan ako basta hindi ako papasok. I always feel pressured, ang bigat bigat sa pakiramdam. I'm emotionally and verbal abused, to the point na mas gusto ko nalang saktan ako kaysa makarinig ng kung ano ano and I also find pleasure in bruises/wounds kapag sinaktan ako feeling ko hindi ako satisfied kapag walang sugat, nararamdaman ko na 'yon since 6 years old ako. Nagkaroon ako ng Psychologist Counselor nung college ako, she told me I am okay siguro kasi nung nag uusap kami I can't let out all the words inside of me? after I stop studying, I tried to have a contact with her that time kasi siya lang yung naiisip ko lapitan, but she rejected me because I'm not enrolled anymore. That time I lose my trust, na ganon ba talaga? but I understand. Hindi nalang ako nagreply after that. Naiintindihan ko naman lahat, kaso bakit the more na naiintindihan ko ang realidad, mas nagagalit ako??? :'

For someone like me who is a healthcare provider, I try to hide it and never seen a doctor kasi nahihiya ako na makita sa medical record ko na may mental issues ako. It’s very difficult kasi I have to set aside my struggles to help others who are dealing with mental issues as well cos that’s my job. Ayaw ko mag-open up sa mga katrabaho ko kasi I am expected to know how to manage it. As much as I want to be more supportive to others outside work, I prefer to stay away from people who suffering from it cos I need to isolate myself to recuperate to be more effective at work. I have my ups and downs, wala naman ako suicidal thoughts. I asked for anti-anxiety meds but never took them cos I am aware of the side effects if I get dependent on it. I’m still grateful that despite of my struggles nakakatulong pa rin naman ako sa iba kahit papaano and that’s my motivation. I just wish na sana maging okay na tayong lahat na nakakaranas ng ganito

Thanks po Doc! Sana mapanood po ito ng mga magulang na hindi naniniwala sa depression like my mother. Na-diagnosed po ako ng major depressive disorder. Siguro unang beses lang po ako sinuportahan ng nanay ko, like dinadala sa psychiatrist para makapag reseta ng gamot na anti depressant saka anti psychotic. Tas tatlong balik namin sa doctor. Nagalit yong nanay ko. Siguro sumuko siya. Napagod siya. Inaway niya pa yong doctor kesyo pera pera lang daw. Ayon po dahil po sa walang sumusuporta, nagdecide na lang po akong lumayas at magsarili. Ngayon, okay na po ako. Hindi totally okay na wala nang nararamdaman na lungkot at pagpapakamatay. Nasa proseso po since sabi ng doctor, matagal daw bago mawala ang depression. Kaya sana sa mga magulang. Kapag alam niyong nakakaranas na ang anak niyo sa depression. Alalayan niyo, damayan niyo, at ang pinaka mahalaga roon, iparamdam niyo kung gaano niyo sila ka-mahal. Kung akala niyo na wala lang 'to. Na parang wala lang sa mukha namin. Kung alam niyo lang, kung nababasa niyo lang ang utak namin o kung nakikita niyo yong laman ng utak namin, sobrang gulo po. Parang mga taling nagkanda buhol. Kaya sana suportahan niyo ang anak niyo na gumaling. Habaan niyo rin po ang pasensya niyo. Kung hindi po madali sa inyo, mas hindi po madali sa amin. Huwag niyo po sana paabutin na mawala ang anak niyo dahil sa suicide. Sa mga nakakaranas ng depression like me, keep going! Malalagpasan natin 'to. ♥️

Bless siya, kasi sa tuwing inaataki siya ng anxiety may nag rerescue sa kanya para e guide sya . Ako, at yung iba sariling sikap para maalis at kumalma ang sarili . Thank you so much Lord na kayanan ko 💖 💓

Hi doc! Hope you are reading this. Thank you for speading awareness and education about mental health. Diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder since 2017. Sometimes, I also experience anxiety attacks. Ang hirap kasi dito sa Pinas, mental health is still stigmatized even though we already have Mental Health Law since 2018, and considered na one of the "most religious" countries tapos predominantly Christian (Catholic and Protestant Christians combined), some self-righteous Christians think na "dasal at pagbabasa ng Bibliya" lang daw ang gamot sa mga mental health problems. Sabi din nila na ang tunay na Kristiyano "daw", hindi raw makaranas ng mental health problems... Which is not true. Worse, they even recommend not to seek a psychiatrist or any mental health professional kesyo hindi daw makakatulong at gastos lang daw yan, pero kay God, wala daw gastos. 😒 Sheesh, God even allows us to be vulnerable. Tao lang naman din tayo, all feelings are valid. Don't get me wrong, I'm Catholic and praying may possibly help (not a cure nor a substitute to meds and professionals!) but I always believe that faith without works is dead. Relying too much on faith alone is dangerous. To those who are currently experiencing signs of mental health problems, please seek a professional and talk to someone who is trustworthy and non-judgmental. You are not alone. ❤️

Kailangan tayo ay may kinakausap lagi. Minsan ako din 2x panic attack. D na ako makahinga

Sana balang araw mapansin din ang vlog ko... God bless sa mga nagbabasa at maging successful ka someday...

Philippians 4:6 "Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God."

For those who suffers mental problems; you can allow yourself to think and feel negatively, and write down everything. If you feel happy and thankful, write it down as well. So whenever you feel positive, read your negative thoughts and write consoling words you can read after writing your worst emotions. And whenever you feel worst, read those happy thoughts and what made you thankful. This is what I do sometimes since I can't bring myself to share my troubles.

Came here after watching angeline quinto’s covid journey. Hi doc! ☺️

Ang hirap ng depression, pinakamahirap kalaban sa lahat but Thank you Lord God sa tuwing may pumapasok sa utak ko na to end my life, biglang nag reflect sa utak ko ung mukha ng magulang ko nakangiti sakin. Anjan na ung hindi na halos kumakain at natutulog, nagkukulong sa dilim at umiiyak. Journal ko nalang dinadaan lahat, at dasal lang. Sana patuloy na malampasan pa.

Feeling ko depressed at may anxiety ako since 2013. Dahil na din siguro sa Family problem tsaka sa course na kinuha ko nung college na hindi ko gusto pero walang choice kesa naman di makapag-aral. Until now naiyak ako sa gabi mag-isa and never ako nagpapakita ng weakness sa mga kasama ko sa bahay pero sa ibang tao kaya ko umiyak sa harap nila. Sana nga balik norm na at office kasi lalo ako nasstress dito sa bahay isama mo na yung araw2x ka nakakarinig ng problema tapos nag aadvanced thinking ka pa sa buhay mo tapos sasabihan ka lang ng iyakin at sensitive.

Yung feeling na nagre-review ako ulit for NLE. 👨🏼‍⚕

Thank you for Discussing Mental Health cases in your channel. Many doesn’t understand

Na experience ko yan anxiety ,Isang beses lang Ako nag pa check up , pero Ang makaka gamot talaga sayo Jan sarili mo,pagdimo kinaya magpa kunsulta kana ,parang Kang mababaliw sa sakit na Yan tapos para Kang mamatay panic attact palpitations advance mag isip kahit wla pa ,sa isip lang talaga yan ,.Ewan ko. Lang sa iba. Ang naka gamot sakin no 1 dasal ,tapos activity kailangan Kasi nalilibang ka ,tapos wagka nagiisip tanggapin tanggapin mo kung ano Meron sa Oras na ito .dagdag mo narin Yun emotional ilabas mo Ng makahinga ka ,base lang to sa experience ko😊 sa ngalan DIOS gagaling ka rin tiwala lang ,🙏

Dko inexpect na tatamaan ako ng Anxiety , Parang Bigla nalang dumating ung time na Masaya ako pero bigla akong malulungkot iiyak ng walang dahilan . Ayaw ng may kausap akala ng iba nag iinarte ka lang , nag papa awa nagpapa pansin. Pero hindi nila alam ung feeling na gusto kong umalis sa sitwasyon na yun. Araw araw gusto ko sana gabi nalang , gusto ko naka pikit lang . Thanks God , kase na overcome ko sya because of my family and friends. Ngayon gumigising na ako sa umaga ng maayos at masaya . Just let God guide you and love you , accept him with all your heart trust him he gave you rest and peace. 💖💖💖💖😇

I went through the same situation, nag sumbong ako sa mama ko pero sabi nya nag iinarte lang ako. Sabi ko gusto ko ng umalis sa amin kasi natatakot na ako sa papa ko kasi ako nalang lahat sinisisi. I also questioned my worth, bakit ako ganito bakit ako ganyan, bakit hindi ko kaya to or ganyan. Palagi rin kasi ako kinukompara, minsan ang sayasaya ko tapos bigla akong naging empty. Mabilis narin ako kabahan kapag nakarinig ng kalabog, kasi papa ko kapag galit hinahampas yung pintuan ko. Hindi ko na mabilang ilang beses ko iniyak lahat. Gusto ko umalis sa amin, nagawa ko naman okay namn lahat pero after a month quesnestion ko ulit sarili ko, mag brebreakdown nalang ako bigla. Nag stop ako pag attend sa school kasi takot ako sa tao, hindi dahil sa mananakit sila kundi dahil iniisip ko ano tingin nila sakin, feeling ko kapag dadaan or papasok ako sa isang lugar na maraming tao lahat sila titingnan ako at huhusgahan. Domistansya rin ako sa mga friends ko kasi feeling ko ayaw na nila sakin. Kinukulong ko sarili ko palagi sa kwarto , for almost 4 years palagi ako nasa bahay lalabas lang ako kapag may utos at kung lalabas man ako dapat may kasama ako (kapatid ko) kasi parang hindi ko kaya mag lakad mag isa. May suicidal thoughts rin ako maraming beses ko naisip yan, pati narin pag sakit sa papa ko naisip ko. Naisip ko rin mas okay ata na wala nalang ako kasi parang mas okay sila sa ganon. Ako panganay, sakin lahat ng sisi we also went through physical abuse sa papa namin. Naranasan ko na rin maging punching bag nh papa ko. Okay naman na sana ako kasi nawiwili ako kakapanuod kdrama or Anime kasi hindi ko na masyadonh iniisip yun. Pero ngayon parang bumabalik lahat , dahil sa mama ng papa ko na pinagsasalitaan ako ng mga masamang salita or chinismis ako , overthinker pa naman ako. Lahat buong pamilya ko pinoproblema ko ngayon kasi gusto ko umalis sa toxic na environment. Kasi baka hindi ko na mapigilan sarili ko. Mabilis pa naman ako masaktan kahit isang salita basta masakit didibdibin ko. Kahit ano pang gawin ko na sabihinsa sarili ko at isaksak sa kukuti na hindi na dapat ako negative mag isip. Yung nakaupo ka lang tapos bigla ka nalang mapapagod, pagod ka sa lahat-lahat ng walang dahilan.

As someone who has both, I feel for her. Ang hirap na nga ng meron kang isa, mas lalo na pag dalawa. Yung GAD at depression mas lalong nagintensify nung nagquarantine lalo na nung nagstart. Sobrang kulang ang mga pinoy sa education when it comes to mental health issues. Kala nila pag meron ka nito baliw ka na kaagad which is a common misconception.

I had anxiety 2x na. Recently lang yung isang attack ko. Pero praise God, I have him and God-centered friends and family kaya naovercome ko siya. Praying, listening to worship songs, watching motivational video made me relax and upon being relaxed doon na ako nagpepray. Kaya naovercome ko kaagad yung anxiety ko.

May anxiety panic and depression po ako, since nalaman ko na highblood ako. Dumating ang time na gusto ko ng mamatay 😭 30 yrs old ako po, nawalan ako ng negosyo dahil sa pandemic 😭 hindi na nakakalabas hindi na ako nakakain 😭 nubg tumaas ang bp ko natatakot na akong lumabas, natatakot na din akomag mall. Gusto ko sa kwarto lang 😭 then nag download ako ng bible. I prayed sabi ko Lord pag maganda ang pakiramdam k bukas bbili ako ng bible. GOD IS GOOD, naging ojay pakiramdam ko. Pero pag datinf sa labas ng book store hilo na ako talaga at kinajabahan akl ng walang dahilan. Pero di ako sumuko bumili ako ng bible at nag basa ako. Pinauubaya ko sa Panginoon ang lahat. 🙏 Tulad sabi ng doctor ko sa hb ko wala na syang magagawa daw sakin kung di ko nattulungan sarili ko. But thank u Lord God pinalakas mo ang loob ko sa ngalan ni Jesus ❤️🙏 meron pa din akong anxiety pumipikit ajo at nag dadasal salamat sa Diyos bumabalik ako sa dati. Walang psychiatrist ang Palawan kaya di ako makapag pagamot 😭 twitter konnalang ang ginagawa kong journal, sabi nila sa isip ko lang daw 😭

Being diagnosed with clinical depression and general anxiety disorder, powerful combo pag sinumpong ka nang sabay

I can relate here that’s why I made it as my testimony on how to fight with depression.

Thank you lord i conquer it ❤hirap di mo explain but di ka maka hinga nanigas ka nlng wla kana maramdaman

I hope my Family and friends can see this.

tbh, i'm experiencing some of these symptoms and dealing with these for years. my only way of coping up is to watch funny videos, singing or anything that would make me happy, and the best thing that i could do everytime i overthink or when negativity is eating my whole system again, i write something on a paper, like poems, stories, or sometimes songs. i am willing to consult a doctor, but the problem is it's too expensive for me. i barely or rarely tell my stories to my friends or other people because i'm always thinking that they might not understand or i might affect them, or be a burdened to them. i hope this will be over soon :)

I dont think its more common sa female gender, pag depression talaga kahit sino eh, its just that some people especially men are good at hiding it. Depression is difficult to conquer I cant even describe it completely, It just feels like your in a deep limbo, yung emptiness. Yung anxiety, ung matatakot ka nlng kahit illogical ung reasons. Those chatters inside your head that wont stop, tapos sinasaktan mo na sarili mo and then suicidal thoughts hits you. I pray na lahat na nag susuffer from mental illness will see better days. Its not easy but you will all get there. ❤

Depression is a sign of spiritual awakening..

Hello dc alvin 👏🤗galing mag paliwanag nakkainspired

Thank you doc Alvin for educating people abt depression and anxiety. I had the same case last year. Ang mas nagpahirap sa akin ay ang anxiety, kasi tuwing inaatake ako sinasabayan ng pagtaas ng BP ko. Thank God dahil okay na ako (with prayers and medication). Mental illness is noy a joke, akala talaga kasi ng iba arte arte lang. We have to take it seriously gaya din ng ibang sakit. Sa edad ko ngang 40+ di ko akalain na I will also experience or have the same illness. I my case sabi ng physchiatrist ay from my genes. Thanks again doc and God bless

For people with panic attack and anxiety disorders.. usually we feel: 1. fear to go to crowded places 2. fear to go to unfamiliar places 3. fear to ride planes and other public transportation 4. fear to get stuck in traffic and fear of long lines/waiting 5. fear of no way out, especially when panic attack strikes It starts in the gut... kapag may acid reflux ka... expect mo na, you'll develop anxiety/panic attack because part of the symptoms ng acid reflux is difficulty breathing. I have been having panic attack and anxiety disorders for 17 years now. On and off...

Aside, Try pray before going to sleep and u'll experience unexplainable healing ☺️ Surrender all worries and anxity to HIM . ❤️

Doc Naranasan kona po itong sakit pero sa awa ng panginoon gumaling ako sa pamamagitan ng pag darasal ko .

Anxiety and panic attack napaka hirap kalabanen tipong iniisip ng iba na para kanang baliw :( lalo na pag madaling araw ako inaatake and dameng thoughts na nasa isip ko, bigla bigla nalang ako umiiyak. damwng nagtataka bakit nagkaron ako ng ganto i am a jolly person ih :( this is a serious thing. mga nakakaranas neto ay di nagpapanggap or what. lalo na pag mag isa kalang lumalaban kase wala naman nakakaintindi sa sitwasyon mo sa pamilya mo :( i always pray to God, i know everything soon will be ok. ❤️🙏

Ganyan ang nangyari sa akin akala ko mamamatay na ako, pabalik-balik kami sa ospital ginawa na lahat ng test ok naman lahat. Kulang na kulang ang tulog ko Dumating pa yung time na tatlong araw akong walang tulog at pagdating ng 2AM nagpapanic attack ako, yung asawa ko sabi sa akin “NASA ISIP MO LANG YAN” nag research ako at naisipan kung magpatingin sa psychiatrist, binigyan ako ng Zoloft. Mula noon nagsimula akong gumaling paminsan minsan inaatake pa rin ako ng panic attack pero I have to recognize na magpapanic attack ako kaya nakokontra ko. Sarili rin natin makagagamot lalo na kung hindi kayang umintindi ng ating Kapamilya. May mga health tips na binigay yung Doktor sa akin gaya ng physical exercise (simple walk is enough)at positive outlook in life. Gumamit din ako ng App na “CALM” para sa relaxation ang laking tulong. Isang taon na ring hindi ako nagpapanic attack at alam kong nalampasan ko na ang sakit na yun.

Pag nag overthinking po ako Doc, nahihirapan po ako huminga. Pero di ganun kalala katulad ng kay Sachna.

Nko doc salamat po sa vid nyo,khit 3yrs ago nato salamat nman at dumaan p rin sya dto,meron po kc anak ko nyan,ngaun naliwanagan npo ako maraming salmat doc god bless po sa inyo😊

Thank you Doc! This was what happened to my father for 3 years since 2020. Madalas syang makaexperience ng panic attacks, madaling nerbyosin tapos hndi nakakatulog ng maayos to the point na inuuntog nya sarili nya sa pader dahil masakit na daw ulo nya dahil hndi makatulog. That time nahihirapan din syang umihi, sumasakit likod so nagpapakonsulta kami sa mga doctor, kung anu anong doctor na napuntahan namin pero hndi pa rin sya gumagaling. Kung anu anong lab exams and gamot na nainom, na shockwave, nalagyan ng catheter etc. Until nung June 2020, nirecommend ng napuntahan naming ENT na magpacheck sa psychiatrist, at dun nga nadiagnose na may Anxiety sya. Tyinaga naming ituloy tuloy ang sessions kahit medyo mahal kasi nakikita ko na effective and nagiging better ang father ko, nalelessen ang panic attacks at nakakapagpahinga sya ng maayos sa gabi. Natapos yung sessions nya early January 2021 and yung medications nya as needed na lang. Kaya ayun, kung nalaman lang namin ng mas maaga na anxiety pala yun, hndi na sana inabot ng 3 years paghihirap ng tatay ko. Salamat po sa ganitong video kasi mas namumulat ang mga mata natin sa mga ganitong bagay. Depression and anxiety is real!

I've never thought deep about anxiety and depression and always thought that they are just the same. Thanks Doc sa magandang information nato. It means that mental illness is a legit illness and like different physical illnesses, different cures and methods should be applied to different sickness. More power to you, Doc!

Awareness nowadays is a must🙏

Nagkaroon din ako nyan panic attack last year 2020. Ang hirap kc takot ako sa sumakay s tren, bus, airplane at s elevator at lalo n s kwarto at ung floor p ng flat ng amo ko ay 43floor. Ung video ni Doc Willie helped me a lot. Luckily, prayer at tibay ng loob lng tlga lalo n ofw ako d2 HK.

Thank you for spreading mental health awareness. 👏 I hope you'll have more videos about mental illness to educate the Filipino people to stop the stigma against people with mental illness. Also, to encourage those people, who are mentally suffering, to seek professional help from a psychiatrist & psychologist. God bless, Dr. Alvin! 🙏

Naranasan ko to after 2 months ko manganak sobrang stress ko non dahil graduating ako at diko na alam gagawen that time buti nalang.. yung mama ko andyan para saken :(

grabe ang ganda ng sound, sobrang linaw at malakas.

Doc.alvin marami salamat sa mga payo mo...

I felt these symptoms too.. but in a introvert way... I want to be alone and the coverage of my personal space is too wide.. when someone is within my personal space family or non family i felt smothered, my mind has to go back to the most inner layers of my shell and hold back.

Thank you for discussing this doc! #StopTheStigma

When I had a panic attack, my arms and legs became numb. Whenever I felt nervous, I had palpitations. The doctor prescribed anxiolytics to me and I have been better ever since. There is hope.

Kaya pala isa sa pinagawa skin ng psychiatrist ko dati eh mgsulat sa journal everyday.. Isa pla sa healing process un.. Thanks doc alvin!

When i first had anxiety/panic attacks, i did not know what it was. I knew nothing of its symptoms. I thought i was going to die. The mind’s very quick to think of something that i am afraid to happen. It took me about 2 years to understand what the possible triggers are and be able to somehow manage it sometimes. Diversion usually helps me but it’s really hard to think of something else when i am feeling uncomfortable with the palpitations and numbing of arms and legs.

I feel like dapat may trigger warning lahat ng videos like the vid sachzna's mom posted. Not everyone is able to watch those kind of vids kasi it might cause them a trigger :(

Thank you so much po doc. I suffer Anxiety at depression it starts last year and from now still fighting dahil Alam ko sa sarili ko na makakaya ko pero ngayon di na ako gaano nakaranas minsan nlang. Hindi gaya ng dati na lge akong umiiyak everyday or every may maiisip ako na Alam ko sarili ko na wla namang kwenta iniiyakan ko.... At salamat kasi may isang tao na laging nandyan para alalayan ako thank youuuuuuuu

I have anxiety & panic disorder, the feeling of having fear most of the time is really tormenting. I always pray to God that this would go away, it's hard... really hard.

early doc hehe keep up po salamat sa mga paliwanag sa mga medical term doc :)

Ang ganda po ng way niyo to spread awareness. Sobrang hirap po nito honestly. I am a Psychology student. 1st year ako, naranasan ko na yung panick attack na para kang mamamatay. Pag umaatake yun parang matatapos na buhay mo. Hirap ka na gumising sa gabi. Nanginginig ka. Nahihirapan huminga. Palpitations. Hindi ka mapalagay. Napakahirap. Gusto ko lang sabihin na we can get through this. Kailangan ng moral support sa times na ganito. Napakahirap pero kailangan kayanin. Nag seek din ako ng help sa mga psychiatrist. Nadiagnose ng general anxiety. Kaya natin to. Kinaya ko, kaya niyo din. Mahirap sa proseso pero maginhawa after. Kailangan mo lagi maging kalmado kahit napakahirap kumalma

Thank You Doc. Poge 😍🤩

Kelangan talaga natin ng mga taong pwd natin mapag sabihan ng ating mga problema at ng ating mga saloobin.

Thank you for discussing anxiety and depression, Doc! In these times of uncertainty, it is important to discuss mental health since MH concerns are rising as well. We still have a long way to go in battling the stigma on MH. Remember fellas, there is help. RPsy here 🤓

Hi doc alvin thank u for additional information I've been suffering from depression and anxiety also undergoing treatment now 🙏🙏🙏

Na ospital na din po ako at ANXIETY po yung diagnosis ng doctor ko 😭 ang hirap po huminga,at nanginginig po mga katawan ko 😭 halos hirap po akong kumain that time.. 😭 halos isang taon po akong may iniinum na gamot,and thankful kasi 2years na po akong walang iniinum pampatulog ❤️ God is Good talaga.. Nalabanan ko yung depression ko at the at the age of 26.Honestly wala po talagang naniniwala sa mga kamag anak ko,doon na lang po sila naniwala na na hospital na ako 😔 Sana lang bawat isa sa atin marunong din mag kumosta sa kamag anak,kahit happy kang nakikita nila pero kamustahin niyo parin.Kasi dinidibdib lang po yung mga lungkot at sakit ng mga taong may depression..Ito kasi yung nag tritriger ng anxiety 😔 Thank u god,u healed me mentally and spiritually kasi natuto akong kausapin ka araw araw ❤️

I had panic attacks din and it was horrible. I praise God for those who listened to me. Prayer works gyud! God is our refuge, the safest place where we can surrender our anxious thoughts and hearts. Aside from prayer, I also work out and mas disiplinado sa anong kakainin. I'm better than I was before. Praise the Lord!

Cute mo doc dun sa “ pinag aalalahanan” 😂✌️😍

Ang hirap talaga ung feeling na s0brang bigat sa dibdib na hindi mu naman alam ang dahilan... ung feeling na pag0d na pag0d ka per0 kakagising mu lang... ung bigla ka na lang iiyak ng dahil lang sa maliit na bagay... ung feeling na walang nakaka intindi sau kahit mag 0pen up ka sa ibang ta0... at ung feeling na ikaw ung laging t0pic ng mga ta0ng nakapa ligid sau...d makatul0g, irritable, isip ng isip, nagpa2lpitate... ung gus2 mu na lang bc ka lagi para d makapag isip ng mga bagay2😭😭😭😭

Worst tlga yung panic attack. I experienced it last September 2020. Yung feeling na d ka makahinga tas nanginginig boong katawan mo at ngpapalpitate ka grbe pra akong mamatay na iwan. Iyak ako ng iyak kasi d ko tlga alam panu ihandle yung ganong pangyayari. Buti nlng andyan asawa ko niyakap lng miya ako at menassage massage lng nya yung kamay ko. I still have a series of panic attack every now and then lalo na pag gabi kaya i always pray ang divert my thoughts into something positive. Kaway2 sa mga taong kagaya ko. Kaya natin to Pray lng tayo ♥️♥️

Very interesting ang topic na ito it's about mental health awareness.

I recently had anxiety attack. I was doing good and then suddenly, bigla na lang naging negative lahat ng feelings ko. To the point na iniisip ko yung future, pano yung ganito yung ganyan.Hanggang sa paulit ulit na lang resolutions ko tapos lahat ng resolutions na naiisip ko may butas. Parang wala kang kawala. To the point na sumakit na ng sumakit ulo ko. Kahit pilitin ko wag mag isip, ang hirap to the point I wanted to kill myself just to end it all.

I will admit na 2018 may suicidal thoughts nako pero nilabanan ko syang mag-isa kase wala akong pinagsabihan ng nararamdaman ko. Di ako comfortable na sabihin kahit sa mga close friends ko or sa parents ko kong ano ba yung pinagdaraanan ko. Lagi akong nakangiti kapag may kausap ako, akala nila okay ako, masaya ako pero umiiyak ako kapag mag-isa nalang ako. Nacocontrol ko sya, pag feeling ko nag-uumpisa na naman akong malungkot, nililibang ko yung sarili ko. Ngayon may time padin na ayaw ko ng may kausap or kahit ka chat. Mas gusto ko lang ng nakahiga ako or nag-iisa ako. May time padin talaga na bigla-bigla nalang akong nalulungkot and minsan mabilis akong magalit. It's hard but let's choose to FIGHT!!! *WE CAN DO IT*

Thank you for this, Doc Alvin!

Hi doc! Please make a video about scoliosis. I have scolio when i was 12 years old, but now, i'm already 23 years old still suffering scolio.

Hi Doc, Thank you for educating people about Depression and Anxiety. Most Filipinos thinks that depression and anxiety ay nasa isip lamang. Actually before, ganun din po ako, until nagkaroon ako ng kaibigan na may PTSD 😞. Doon ko lang po nalaman na dapat mas i-educate pa ang mga tao regarding dito at hindi dapat balewalain. I hope this video and spread more awareness about mental health especially for people who have loved ones that experiencing this. Kudos po doc (*´∀`*)

Thank you doc for sharing this, para maiwasan na po na sinasabi ng mga Pilipino na arte lang ang depression and anxiety

Thanks doc.alvin very informative, stay safe and healthy doc,

Hi Doc. Alvin great video content. It really helps us Filipinos know more about mental health and our well being. Hope you can make a video about Ivermectin. It's been creating a buzz right now that it's a good medicine or vaccine for Covid. More power to your channel

damang dama ko yung anxiety doc, sabi nung nurse sakin na yun pala sakit ko. akala ko e may sakit nako sa puso dahil sobra kaba ko at kung ano ano na naiisip ko, halos himatayin nako at nangitim na kamay at paa ko. pagdating ko sa ospital anxiety pala meron ako. wala silang gamot na binigay sakin, tinulungan ko lang sarili ko at hanggang ngayon patuloy ko pa rin iniimprove sarili ko para sa ikabubuti ng kalusugan ko

I gotta share my story here ☺️ I've been hearing voices of the devil since 2019 i think i have depression pero hindi clinically diagnosed experiencing suicidal thoughts and marami na rin akong attempts mapa hanggang ngayon, sometimes i can't sleep for 3 days because of this stupid brain of mine na ayaw matulog, tapos pag makaktulog 3hrs lang then magigising ulit. Madalas nalang akong manood para malibang at may iba akong isipin pero pag nagsasawa na ako bigla nalang akong iiyak mga gusto kong kalimutang alalaa bumabalik mga negative thoughts ko madalas nila akong kainin then experiencing so much burn out, pagod na pagod na ako ayoko ng mabuhay wala ng purpose sa mundo. Been battling with this since 2019 nakaka trigger kasi yung negative people sa paligid mo and if umabot sayo yung negativity na yun gusto mo nalang mamatay kasi pagod kana.

I frequently get depressed where i lose interest to do anything at all like now ik i have a lot of pending activities in school I tried to shove that feeling for a yr and tried my best to finish all the requirements in school but lately I’m starting to feel like i don’t want to do it anymore and I don’t have anyone to talk about my problems I just lock myself in my room and cry about how stressed and lonely i am... I’m just holding on in thin line of hope that everything will be fine I’m trying shove it all to the corner. Sometimes i end up thinking about suicide just to end my suffering my mom is the only one i could think of just to stop myself from ending my life

thank.you doc alvin ikaw yung hero nami salamat sa lahat dahil ikaw po isa sa taong naka tolong sa amin mag asawa dahil may anxiety yung husbond ko tas ako may depression salamat sa lahat doc❤❤❤

Yung mga banat mo Doc. Watching for Dammam Saudi Arabia
