15 Minutes with Pia: You are Not Alone

  • Real talk guys. For the longest time, I never wanted to admit I was sad, out of fear that people would judge me or say that I’m being ungrateful. Kahit ako napapaisip, how can someone like me, who looks like they made their dream come true, still be depressed?
    I did this talk recently and it was challenging to sum up everything about my mental health in 15 minutes. It’s my most honest sharing yet, and I wanted to be sure that if i spoke about it, it was coming from a place of strength and confidence. There’s no way I’m 100% okay now as it’s always a work in progress and everyday you just find healthier ways to cope.
    After this, I would like to continue talking about mental health with you. I’ve started to equip myself with the right people around me to make sure that whatever I share is helpful. Thank you to MUO, LoveYourself & all my close friends who knew and who saw. 💙
    Maybe sharing this will make somebody feel like they’re not alone. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. 💙💙💙

    Hi Pia,
    I’m not sure if this message reaches you, but I’m so very grateful for you.
    In 2015 it was through you I got to know that there was a miss universe contest, to put that aside, when I hear you speak back in the day, I thought to myself there are people like you who are so kind and elegant in every way, I was thrilled to see you win and ever since you had a special place in my life.
    Thank you for trusting us and sharing your journey with us, it was really empowering and I feel you and I understand, now that I am in a place of influence and power, I realize everything you just said was true about myself as well.
    The question which you answered stuck with me from that day till this day and when you said it again so many memories just came back, yes I am confidently handsome with a heart and it will always be there forever.
    You will always have a family in me and I will always be praying for you.
    Once again thank you for who you are and for being someone I can look up to in every situation.
    With love,
    Joshua Emmanuel Francis.

I felt like I had no reason to be happy. I almost lost my mother this year and our debts are high.

Many times we go through life walking without stopping to look inside. On many occasions we forget to want to fulfill our family, friends and our goals. But it is essential and fair and necessary to make time for ourselves. Thank you for telling every moment every detail of everything you experienced. It goes without saying that you are inspiration. You are my inspiration. Thank you for showing your more noble and simpler side of yourself. I know that many of us love you and we love you for who you are.

    Kaya pala during her reign sobra ang payat nya, akala natin lahat dahil sa diet nya recommended ng nutritionist ng MU. Ito pala ang dahilan. Ganyan talaga pag galing sa hirap sa buhay kakayanin ang lahat. Thank you Pia for being an inspiration to all of us and you’re right choose yourself now and be free, let go of those baggages that you’ve been carrying in your mind and heart since your childhood. I can truly relate. Pia is such a humble and genuine person and MU saw that. Proud of you Pia ♥️🇵🇭

I learned a lot from this video. Thank you.

    Seriously, I don't know how to love Pia more. I have loved and looked up to her so much since the MU2015 event, and even up to these days!
    The last time she visited Bangkok to be a guest speaker at a Miss Universe Thailand event, I saw her in real life, and she looked flawless! So stunning beautiful. I was trying to take a selfie of myself with her from afar, and she looked back at my phone camera too-one of the best days of my life!
    Even though I'm Thai, I'm so proud of Pia (and Catriona and the other contestants from PH) because these queens are so inspiring in their own ways.
    Pia continues to use her voice to help others just like she promised on the stage before she was crowned MU2015, especially for the causes near and dear to her heart. I'm glad that she is one of the Miss Universe winners.
    Love and support you, my Queen Pia. I will continue to follow your journey. Please come visit Thailand often (when the COVID-19 situation is better, of course.)

    I started going to therapy in the states and I'm so thankful my therapist is a pinay (who can understand my problems and upbringing from a cultural perspective). it is mind blowing that there are only 800 in the Philippines, i am hoping there will be more. thank yu for sharing your experiences and advocating for mental health!

      Great you are going to therapy. Takes courage. I’m not surprised either the small number of therapists In PI. Thou I believe it will grow. Going to therapy and discussing mental health issues may still be a cultural stigma in many parts of Asia, it’s so needed. I’m in graduate school pursuing to be a therapist with emphasis in mental health disorders and specializing in anxiety, depression and trauma. The first step is recognizing there is a problem and getting help. Important to realize that no one is perfect on earth. I wish you the best In your healing journey.
