ICE SEGUERRA ON BATTLING 17 YEARS OF DEPRESSION. Surviving The Darkest Moments | Karen Davila Ep69 

Thank you sooooo much for watching our episode with Ice 🥰 I hope this episode was able to help and encourage all of you - there is always hope and light at the end of the tunnel. Basta may buhay po, may pag-asa 🙏🏻 Pls get the help you need of you are experiencing any of the symptoms mentioned 🙏🏻

I've (28 yrs old) been diagnosed with depression on 2019, here in Denmark. But I know ever since 2014, I've always had it. Now I'm on Sertraline, 125 mg a day. I have been back to my old self: Like when I was in 6th grade na you're just present in the moment. Happy, playful, proactive sa environment mo, iiyak pag nadapa, tatawa pag may funny, naiinis pag may nakakairita-- you know, just like a "normal" human being with "normal" feelings and reactions to things. And then I started to wake up late. Ayoko nang magschool. Wala na akong desire to push or go through things, like finishing college. Even waking up in the morning para pumunta ng school, nawala na yung internal motivation. And then sa bathroom in the morning, nakaupo lang ako and wait until I want to start taking a bath. Not because I'm still sleepy, but because parang empty ako on the inside. Shempre life events happened, and you continue to get up everyday. My dad was diagnosed with cancer, eventually passed away. I changed college thrice. I wasn't very stable in my decisions. It was important for me to jump from one relationship to another kase I didn't wanna be left feeling empty. Always out with friends so that I'm never alone. And that is one of the reasons why even your own family cannot see that you are going through depression. Because even I was also doing my best to fill myself up, to prevent from feeling empty or numb. When I moved here in Denmark it got worse na. My feeling of emptiness, blue, parang gray clouds in my head na feeling. And then my husband would always ask me bakit I'm always looking down on the road while we walk. It was like I was very empty, and the emptiness is what hurts talaga. Kase you know it's not normal, you cannot shake it away. You cannot help yourself. Kaya I would then start to cry coz "I don't feel okay". It was aggravated by the fact na I moved away from my homecountry, homesick, etc. So I would cry and cry because I would get tired of the emptiness, the loneliness na hindi mo ma-explain bakit nandyan. And then ayokong lumabas. Gusto ko lang nasa bed. Natutulog ako buong araw. Nasa bed lang. And then I would hate myself for wasting another day. I would "fall over" very easily: I was mean to my family kase I was easily aggravated. I was hurting inside, and would bark at the wrong tree. I hated it so much when my husband would ask me: Are you depressed? What did you do today, love? --- I hated it so much. Because I hated not feeling in control of myself, my time, my energy, my body, my productivity. When I was finally diagnosed, it felt so good-- it's true. Because now there's a name for it. Totoo talaga ang sinabi ni Ice. Now you understand yourself better, you understand your brain better. You understand that the chemicals in your brain need a little push, it needs a little help. When I started to understand that, I started to forgive myself and say "It will be okay, let's get through this together." With my medication, I then realized na it has been four or five weeks and I was really really doing soooo much better. You know, everyday things, na your healthy brain would do like singing, laughing, dancing, getting up, cleaning the house, making friends, interest in going out, yung mga ganun? Like I was back to my old self again. I said sa sarili ko, how I wish I had already asked for professional help since 2014 pa. I didn't realize na I missed out on so much kase I was just floating with depression. Luckily, hindi naman ako umabot sa point of being suicidal. That is something already very very very very serious. Please seek immediate help if this is your case. I don't go to therapy actually. It would be nice, it would be a really great mountain of help. I have just been in medication ever since, and I have been really doing better. It worked for me, and continues to do so. My brother passed away on a New Year's Day. I went through the process of grieving. The medication doesn't shield you from feeling things. But it sure did help me not to go down the dark spiral of depression again. I cry when I remember him, I feel hurt in my chest when I remember him. Pero no more depressive episodes like before. So the medication doesn't make you a zombie. It just helps your body and brain pump more serotonin on a healthy rate so you can live normally. People kase with depression, it is characterized by the brain's inability to produce serotonin like a healthy brain would. So no, the medication doesn't make you a zombie or change your personality. That's a misconception. You don't hear voices, even when you are in a downward spiral. Hearing voices is when you have schizophrenia, which is a different mental disorder naman-- where you hear things or see things. So no, you don't hear voices with depression. I have already been predisposed to depression and anxiety-- my dad was an alcoholic and my mom has borderline personality disorder. So my childhood was tough. Depression is not a feeling, or a phase. It is a disorder. It is attributed by the chemical things going on in your brain. So saying, "Just pray" or "be happy" or "Just exercise" doesn't help. Asking how they're feeling, when do they often feel this way, how can you help... those kinds of conversations help. And encouraging your friend or family to seek professional help is the MOST IMPORTANT. Thank you for this video. 🌸

We all used to know Ice as Aiza Seguerra back in the day. Now we see a changed individual right in front of our eyes. Depression is difficult to combat and eventually come to terms with. We all need God's presence in our lives. I know that only God is capable of guiding us through our darkest moments. In God, we are able to find comfort, love and assurance. I'm certain this interview will inspire a lot of people.

As a person who personally experienced this.. whoever is experiencing these, please talk to someone. That's the first important step. You are not alone, someone loves you.

For me. Aiza Seguerra or Ice Seguerra, never sya nalaos. One of the ICONIC SINGER. 😊

Ice is defenitely my favorite artist up until now..❤️❤️❤️ never ko naisip na nalaos sya, kasi walang makakapalit sa kanya at sa ambag nya sa industriya.❤️

You're still the cutest child star of our generation. Kaming mga fans nandito lang. I still listen to your songs and watch your heartfelt rendition of Muntik na Kitang Minahal nung guest ka sa Sharon.

One of my favorites,. hindi kapo laos sa puso namin Aiza🥰

My third son diagnosed as bipolar disorder. Ang hirap nung una kasi Grabe yun depressions nya. At ilang beses sya uminom ng sleeping pills at Ibang drugs nagwawala sya. Hirap din kami pag Nakakita namin na ganun sya. Hindi rin sya nagtatagal sa trabaho dahil sa sakit nya. Ngayon lumalaban sya sa depression at nag sosolo sya magtrabaho. Lagi kong pinagdarasal na gumaling sya. And I’m praying for you to find peace and happiness

i've been with ice since the day he joined eat bulaga's contest.... i rode with his journey, sang with his songs and watched his every performances.... i idolized him even im older than him... he's superb awesome witty and someone to look up to.... his music cures my depression and sickness.... ice is ice and i love adore and cares for him.. taong tao, totoong totoo at buhay na buhay.... hope to meet him in person

Ice! Di kami nawala ng mga fans mo! we are still here. My mom love your hit single pagdating ng panahon. Please continue making music. you have a gift!! tagos hangang puso and very relatable ang mga songs that you create. Be strong and godbless 🙏🙏🙏

I totally can relate with Aiza. Been battling witj anxiety and dep for so many years. I am battling with severe gastric pains for years now. Kahit meds wala minsan nagagawa. This made me so depressed and wanted to end this pain several times now. Sana may ma interview pa na mga tao with anxiety and depression to spread awarenes about mental health.

Thank you Karen for this episode! We have the same dilema as Ice’s depression and still experiencing it until now. 😢 its not sadness. Suicidal - It’s depression that kills many lives. Hoping and praying that “This too shall pass”. God bless everyone😊

Thank you for sharing this interview. I too have been clinically diagnosed with depression and have gone through the worst just the past week. Everything Ice had mentioned I can so much relate with. It's true that even after all the medications, all the therapy, all the tools that you already have and the knowledge you possess about depression, when it hits you, it hits you talaga and it paralyzes you to the ground. Just watching this interview alone gave me a sense of a safe space lalo na its spreading awareness about depression. Its really important to have a strong support system that would lend an open ear without judgement. Kaya to everyone out there that are going through the same battle or any other mental health problems, you are all brave and know that everything shall pass. Kapit lang!

lahat yan, naexperience ko, I cried, I'm super impatient, I oversleep or I did't sleep, I overeat or I did not eat at all, I can lay down on my bed, not taking a bath, not brushing teeth, not changing clothes. I was about to go to ask professional help but my husband told me not to. I lost my eldest son that's the reason behind it. As of now, I'm still in a process of healing, I made myself busy. I'm very thankful for the support system of my family.

I experienced anxiety attack when I got scammed. I can't sleep nor eat but thank God, I fought it through unceasing prayers. I fed my mind talking to God to disrupt the bad thoughts inside my head. Buti na lang it didn't last long. Pera lang yun, kayang kitain.

The best interview in the universe. Please let the whole world know that ice created a cure for someone who has depression. Very well said ice... " that this too will pass" i urge everyone who has depression to watch this. Really worthy of.

Salamat po for doing this interview with Ice. I always think na Ice is one of the most magaling na singer in the Philippines. Glad he’s back on performing again & taking care of his mental health. One day at a time, Ice. Sending you well wishes and good luck on your concert. 🙏🏼

Living for people who suffer depression and anxiety is a job. A minute to minute effort to live. Living is like a battle to fight and to win! Kaya mo yan Ice!

Ang sweet naman ng pagkakabigkas ni Ice na "ate" ke Ms. Karen. I loved your voice Ice. God bless you and good luck po sa concert mo. Tnx Ms. Karen for having Ice sa RU-vid nyo po. God bless. 💝😘

Wow your stories exactly like my journey. I’m a nurse but recently diagnosed with PTSD anxiety depression, so overwhelming and I ended up not working for awhile. I am still recovering till now. Take care ❤️

Aiza has a timeless voice..

You are telling what I am going through. For me, it is longer than 17 years. Life to me is painful. When I wake up in the morning, I have to go get up and have to prepare for the day's grind. I am suicidal but I do not have the courage to end my life. Sa akin, instead of losing the appetite to eat, I overeat and yes, I oversleep. I do not take a bath for days. When I overeat, saka ko na lang ititigil kung may mga nararamdaman na ako. Until recently, because of overeating, I gained more than 8 kilos in less than three months. I became grossly fat, pumuputok ang aking mga damit. Mabigat ang paggalaw. Humina ang pagkilos. I was feeling so rotten. Because of the drastic weight gain in so short a time, my body wasn't able to metabolize the fats from all the food that I was eating that resulted in the growth of lipoma on my left deltoid. Dalawa ang doctor na nagsabi that it was an intinerant/abnormal growth caused by drastic weight gain in so short a time. It had to be surgically renoved. It was discovered second week of June and was removed on Aug. 10. When it was removed, it was the size of a large duck egg. Until now, mayroon akong iniinda. I pray...everyday...I am a spiritual person but this does not fill the vacuous feeling inside. It is painful to wake up everyday. I do not find meaning in life. I have a loving and satisfying family life but the void is gaping. There was a time that I used to take up meds but I stopped it. I also went through several psychotherapists but sinabihan nila ako na "tama na, kilala mo ang sarili mo. Alam mo ang coping mechanisms mo at alam mo kung kailan ka titigil sa ka-wa-wallow sa iyong coping mechanisms. Kilala mo ang sarili mo. Tam na, niloloko mo lang kami." Ang pinaka-coping mechanism ko ay food, then alcohol and cigarettes. I've stopped drinking and smoking but not food and sleeping. I am also manic depressive. There was a time when I used to spend about 8 to 10k on clothes, shoes and bags every month. Some times, more than 10k. Karamihan sa mga damit ay hindi ko nasusuot. After some months, I would feel being swallowed by the clothes that I amassed. This would worsen my depression so I would give out these clothes to my co-workers. Recently, nagshift ang addiction ko to to plants and paintings. I buy plants in big batches and when I buy plants, I also buy pots, potting soil and kung ano-ano na ihinahalo ko sa potting soil. Sabi ko sa sarili ko, magfocus na lang ako sa plants para matuto akong mag-alaga ng tanim. Nagawa ko naman but when my depression hit me few months ago, my plants suffered. It is a cycle, a very vicious cycle. It is more than anxiety. It is utter lonesomeness even in the midst of people who matter to me. It is utter loneliness even while laughing with others, the cause of which I do not know where it is coming from. It is the feeling of desolation, hopelessness, worthlessness, rottenness, anxiety, absence of energy, vacuous feeling and simply existing and not living not to mention the headaches and bodyaches.

Thank you Karen for this episode. ♥️ Grabe din yung pinagdaanan na depression ni Ice , pero mas grabe Yung Pag mamahal Ng Panginoon sa Kanya , binigyan siya ng Asawa na kaya siyang intindihin at mahalin sa kabila Ng mga pinagdadaanan niya sa buhay. Kudos sayo ice 🥰 By the way I'm your fan , lalo na sa mga kanta mo Ang lamig² ng boses mo.

I can relate very well because my son is still undergoing severe depression with suicidal tendency.He was admitted in a facility for 15 days ,and still for 3 years continuing check up with dr/pyschiatrist.Always praying that he will be ok in God's perfect time.

You are a brave soul! Sharing your personal experience is a big help to people who are suffering from depression

habang pinapanood ko ito umiiyak ako dahil lahat ng nararanasan ni Ice dinaranas ngayon ng husband ko. Ang masakit yung hindi maintindihan ng ibang tao kung ano ang nararamdaman ng may depression.akala nila pinagmamalakihan mo sila pero ang hindi nila alam na nawawalan ng gana ang isang taong may depression dahil sa sobrang kalungkutan at may pinagdadaanan.

Since i heard Aiza sang, i automatically enchanted with his voice up until now, we're still here Ice, hindi kami bumitaw, we, your fans, never stopped to look up to you 🥰🥰🥰

I really love Aiza Seguerra eversince, I'm a fan and I'm longing to hear her singing Kasi Ang lamig Ng boses nya, sobrang nakakarelax po talaga. Di mo lang alam how calming you are and it really helps us in our anxiety. Thank u so much♥️♥️♥️

iba pa rin talaga ang boses at lalim mo ice. keep going, thank you for sharing your story... you saved so many lives tonight and i am one of them. we are not alone 💙

Mahirap talaga pag dumaan ka sa depression 😢 danas ko din yan sobrang hirap at umabot pa ako sa puntong nagpakamatay ako nun diko kinaya 😢😢 pero nung makita ko mga anak ko na nahihirapan ng dahil sakin dun ako nag start na lumaban para sa kanila kinaya ko at nagpagaling ako para sa mga anak ko 😢 salamat kay AMA 👆🙏 nakita ko xang muli at nagpapasalamat ako sa mga anak ko dahil sa kanila gumaling ako at nilabanan ko Ang depression at ngaun ok nako kasama mga anak ko at masaya ng namumuhay ulit ❤ Happy family dito sa japan 🇯🇵

True happiness can be found in Jesus. Trust him and follow His ways, with all your heart and you will find true happiness with him.... Even your depressions will be washed away when you include Jesus in your life.

Yes Aiza one way to counter depression is to find way to be happy and be thankful for all trials, failures and success that comes our way. God is our best refuge. God bless you Aiza.

He carries himself well at marespeto sa tao kaya nakukuha rin niya ang respect. Hindi biro ang clinical depression at marami ang hindi nakakaunawa dito. Sana maraming makuhang aral ang viewers nito.

Seing Ice talking about depression and anxiety. Indeed he is so brave to pass all the challenges in his life and how he live with it balancing everything and the people around him matters

I like his personality. He is a very good actor especially when i watched her in TV drama with Roderick. He needs more films and the movie industry needs him. I love his song Pagdating ng Panahon. I identified what he has been through the anxiety and depression. What he said is perfectly true. He is an inspiration.

Not all friends can advise very well, sometimes they are the ones who become the agitating factors when it comes to one depressive mood. One must be careful with their words whenever possible.Thank you ma'am Karen for this very helpful and timely interview with Ice!

Life with Anxiety and Depression will never be easy. We never choose to be like this. So don't say that nasa utak mo lang yan. Kulang ka kasi sa faith. Depression is real people. Its so sad kasi its still a taboo to some families. You will never understand depression unless you are in our shoes. Thanks aiza for being an inspiration and for sharing your story. Laban lang talaga tayo.

sa totoo lng..si aiza ang pinaka the best trans na filipino na di tlaga ng change, even in physical way..She just being true to herself🥰.. just keep on praying ice🙏. Soon it going well.

Kudos to both Ice and Karen for a heartfelt ,profound,and genuine conversation. Ice is such an intelligent,honest and talented person that is a rarity in the young artistas now. Kudos also to her family for being always understanding and supportive of her. God bless you all.

I admire you Ice for opening up your mental health struggles to us. This is truly a mental awareness that we cannot just ignore .No one knows can tell what we are going through until we seek someone who can really help us. You are an amazing person Ice!!

As a person whose going through anxiety and depression. I know how hard the battle is for yourself and for the people who loves you.May you be bless with more gig.Such a good husband and father.More power ice!👏🙌🙏

Kapag miron tayong promlema, or depression si God lng talaga ang kailagan natin. Pero sa sitwasion niya kailagan niya ang repentance. Huminge ng kapatawaran sa Dios.

Ice, you're such a great person. And blessed to have people who supported you. Especially your wife. I've suffered from depression as well that's why I truly appreciate every single word that you said. This is an awareness for everyone out there, Depression really does exist. Thank you and God bless!

Thank you Ms. Karen for this interview. Napakalinaw pong mag describe ni Ice ng pinagdaanan nya. Naintindihan ko po ng mabuti ang sakit. She can be the perfect spokesperson for mental health awareness. Napaiyak po ako as I am experiencing dealing with a loved one with depression.

You are one of the very loved and respected actor and singer kaya nkakashock na ganyan yung mga pinagdadaanan mo.. you are living legend Ice Seguerra.

Hanga ako sa iyo Ice, tunay kang tao, thank you for being so honest, I am sure marami kang natulungan para unawain ang ibig sabihin ng depression. Minsan may nakausap akong lalaki, sabi niya dahil hindi niya naranasan kahit kailan ang ma depress, hindi niya kayang unawain ang taong may ganitong karamdaman. Thank you again for educating us. Gusto ko ang huli mong sinabi na kung ano man ang pinagdaraanan mo o natin ay lilipas, kung masaya ka may ending ganon din, kung malungkot ka, lilipas din. ang isa pang napakamahalagang sinabi mo ay huwag matakot na humingi ng tulong, sa inaakala mong uunawa sa iyo, katulad ng pinaka malapit sa buhay mo at huwag ding kalimutan ang professional like your doctor dahil napakalaking maitutlong niya sa iyo. Salamat uli sa iyo Ice, tunay kang brave sa pagharap sa buhay.

And i just really love aiza's voice...it is simple but soulful...

nakakabitin! i want to know more about depression and anxiety. Sa tradition, beliefs, culture.. namin parang di uso kapag sasabihin mo na depressed ka. same with ICE, bago ko lang din narealize na ung mga pinagdaanan ko pala noon until now ay signs pala ng depression. Kapag sinasabi ko sa family, walang naniniwala. Yon nga, sasabihin isip mo lang yan.. nababaliw kana ba? mga ganon. Walang nakakaintindi. this year, masasabi ko na pinakamahirap sa lahat.. hindi kinaya ng katawan ko ung depression. dalawang beses ako inatake na di ako nakatulog for 3days straight. nagpacheck up ako at sabi kailangan ko daw ng somebody.. magpatingin. although sinabihan ako na no need to take medicine naman pero need ko daw. nagpasked ako for Psychiatry pero di natuloy dahil mahal ng session. Nag-rest ako. Calm myself. Pray. Survived. Pero akala ko ganon lang yon. everytime may problema ako it triggers me, this time, may time naiisip ko din “if suicide is not a sin.. then maybe”. Natatakot din ako for myself dahil diko na alam minsan ano kaya ko gawin. i know, something is wrong with me. pero di nila ako naiintindihan sa bahay.. ang family ko. Thanks for this vid.

Aiza, your fans never left you. We are always here to support you. I for one pag me concert ka always nandoon ako. Never tired of hearing your voice ❤️ just keep on going.

Ice, I don't think our fans left. We grew up na rin kase at the same time you were. Kumbaga, nagkanya-kanya na muna tayo. I'm in my late 30's na rin, and I am grateful that you never stop shedding light on anxiety and depression. I might have it too kase ang pagkaka describe mo is very, VERY relatable. I still hope to make it through. Hang in there lang tayo! Hangga't kaya, hangga't may may pake. Labyu, Ice!

I speak Peace from Jesus to you Ice. God loves you unconditionally .

I can relate my daughter is also battling with this. To all families that's also struggling be patient be with them always. Just a simple hugs means a lot to them.

Ang daming matutulungan ngayon ni Ice salamat for being honest sa story mo Ice. Sa lahat ng nakakaranas ngayon ng depression humingi po kayo ng tulong sa Dr. wag po kayong mahihiya very common po lalo ngayon ang depression dahil sa pandemic for two years nasa pandemic po tayo. May gamot po na ibibigay ang Dr. para sumaya po kayo ulit. Stay strong and ask for help po wag po ninyong solohin ang mental health problem niyo marami pong tutulong sa inyo.

AIZA OR ICE ESGUERRA IS 1 OF MY FAVORITE SINGER EVERSINCE PAGDATING NG PANAHON HITS❤️

Very timely!thanks for sharing this,been through depression /anxiety as well this past few months and it's not easy..surround yourself with people who only lift you higher.Keep yourself busy🌱🎨.We're strongest when we cheer each other..And lift up everything to Him.This Philippians 4:6,7 so helpful for me.❤

This interview reminds me of what Chester Charles Bennington tweeted for his friend Chris Cornell. He said, "Your voice was joy and pain, anger and forgiveness, love and heartache all wrapped up into one. I suppose that’s what we are all. You helped me understand that. "

Do not worry Ice your fans are still here for you❤️

One of the best voices came from ice.always admire you don't stop singing and fight😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏🙏 Hindi ka parin nakakalimutan lalo na mga imiidolo sayo

Thank you for enlightening people not to confuse sadness dahil walang wifi to how depression really feels. You exactly described and explained what depression feels like. I wish you to get well. 😊

Admirable how eloquent and smart you answer all the questions Ice! You really delve into the nit and gritty of depression so that others understand. 💕

She is so smart! si Aiza ay intelligent in answering all the issues , I'm so proud , God bless Aiza

Expectations are so high when you get your big break in Eat Bulaga as a "child wonder", I cant imagine the pressure Aiza felt growing with fans and her senior hosts expects her to always project a very positive cute and bubbly persona mondays to saturdays. Very glad she discovered her craft and love for music at a young age so that she wont be stagnated and typecasted on hosting roles.

The interview is raw , sincere and Educational! Thanks Ice for the interview. In a way it is putting a name to what others are also experiencing. All the very best Ice! 🙏🏻

I like the way Aiza called Ms Karen "Ate" so casual lng😊

nung baby pa ang anak ko... umiiyak kapag nagugutom o nauuhaw o basa ang diaper, pero kapag kantahan ko na ng PAGDATING NG PANANHIN ni Aiza, bigla cya makikinig sa kanta at magstop ng iyak. 21yo na sya ngayon. Thanks Aiza for the song and the inspiration

Di talaga nagbago boses nya. Praying for more success for you Ice and thanks for sharing your story. 🙏

Love this episode! Ice is one admirable singer...very soulful each time! Thanks Ms. Karen. Full speed ahead Ice!👍🏼👏

Hi Ice. Thank you for talking about your experience about mental health issues. I lost someone who I really love due to depression and anxiety. I am still grieving but I can’t do anything about now 😭😭😭

Grabe! Nabitin ako sa interview na to with Ice. Parang lahat ng sinabi niya, relatable, especially for someone like me who's been diagnosed with the same condition. Depression is real talaga. Ang hirap nung pati ikaw, hindi mo maintindihan kung anong nangyayari sayo. And words like "Be positive", "Iniisip mo lang yan", "Wag ka kasi masiyadong mag-isip", etc., doesn't help sometimes talaga. Totoo yung sinabi niya na kahit anong iwas mo, dumarating talaga sa mga oras na your mind's just f*cked up. You're really lucky if the people who's mostly around you can genuinely understand. Napakahalaga ng emotional support. Sobra.

Only through Karen Davila’s vlogs that you can understand people better. My favorite episode so far though lahat ng interviews nya ang gaganda! Thank you Ms. Karen! Time for everyone to really remove the stigma with Mental Health Illness.

I completely understand and relate to you Ice. You are lucky to have a great support system to fight this. I am still, though, struggling to find my light. Thank you for this Ms. Karen..

Respect to my Idol Ice Seguera and to all of suffering the same thing and Ice right "THIS TOO , SHALL PASS" GOD BLESS TO ALL watching from here in Switzerland

Naranasan ko rin 'yung ganyang symptoms. Sobrang hirap talaga to cope up and to tell sa mga tao. Proud of u, Ice! You inspired me and thank u for your amazing thoughts! This means a lot. ❤

I could Relate to you Aiza.. I’m also suffering from anxiety depression for 10 years… Tganks God and for our Support System.. Just Continue to write Sings and Sing your Song … God Bless You Even More. Your Message of Deoression Helps other People to understand that is not easy… 🙏

I'm so excited si Ice Seguerra

This is one of the best Ms Karen, plus the verse at the end was really spot on. Thank you for having Ice Seguerra!

I’ve never watched someone describe depression the way Ice did in this video. Literally the very same emotions, struggles I went through since 2020, the only difference is mine wasn’t chemical imbalance, it was trauma and abuse I experienced from my family. Thankfully, I have the most amazing husband who provided me all the help I could ever need, love, support, undestanding, the best doctors, therapy. Now I am doing better. It does really get better, just live one day at a time. God will help you come out to the other side🥰

IDOL. napaka humble nya at sa tagal na nya sa industry hindi talaga sya nagbago. ❤

Ang depression talaga napaka hirap, kakainin yung buong pagkatao mo.

Boses ni Aiza always has been so soothing! Even nung bata pa sya always sound so eloquent. Hindi bida bida.... Hang in there. Better days are ahead.

Now I know what kind of depression I have...grabe parang nkinita ko lng sarili ko sa kwento nya.The illness that no one can cure but you yourselves alone. Thanks God Im Ok now through pervent prayer and outspoken.

Napagdaanan ko din to nun almost 2yrs bgo ako gumaling ayaw k ng maulit at mramdaman ulit pinakamahirap na naranasan kong sakit ang depression sa buong buhay ko...i know the feeling grabe nkakatakot

This is a gift! So honest, brave and inspirational. Thank you, Karen and Ice!

So relatable, I’m also diagnosed with GAD and Clinical Depression. Sending love to Ice.

Keep on praying Ice and stay happy and healthy! God is good all the time... God bless

“Snap out of it” advice doesn’t work. Depression is not about being unhappy. Hats off to Ice for being open. This was a great interview,Karen.

Karen, this is one of the best vlogs you did. I am one of your greatest fans. Good luck to your channel and hope you will be able to touch more hearts. ❤

Impressive to watch this episode with Ice; that anyone can be trigger in this kind of mental issues; she able to express herself to learned from it and be a strong person as she can be. Strong relationship, trust and faith that you can go through with it. Keep going Karen encouraged people around the world who are battling this kind of issues ...to come out and be yourself and express themselves to the people who they can trust....Goodluck Ice you still young and can conquer everything through thick and thin...you still have a purpose in life to encourage and be inspire everyone to be strong and faith .😇

Ice is very articulate in describing this illness. So smart!
