‪Everyday is a battle. The pandemic and ABS-CBN franchise renewal have affected so much of my mental health. But everyday, I choose to move forward.

The quarantine has brought out the darkest of my days. I will not deny that there are times that I get triggered and end up crying, but as much as possible I fight.

I have this thought in mind that everyone goes through depression, yet we all have different ways of handling it. In my case, I make sure that I am productive.

Productivity for me would be, one, getting a good exercise, as it releases the happy hormones in our body. Two, I indulge my time to house chores. Three, lessening the time on social media as it helps you stir away from news that might trigger your emotions. Four, I keep a strong faith in Him, and know that I am blessed and well guided by His love. Lastly, I find support through my family, and closest friends who help keep my sanity intact.

Some of you may look at it that it’s easy, but I tell you, it is a struggle. Some might have comments that my battles are petty, but we all have different cases, and manners of facing it. But what is important to me, is that I push you to never let those demons eat your thoughts, and always strive to move forward.
