00:00Ito naman mga kababayan, nagkalat ang concern sa social media
00:04patungkol sa mga pinagdadaan ng stress at mental health issues ng ating mga kabataan.
00:10Ito po yung nakakabahala, kaya mahalagang matutukan.
00:14Panorin po natin ito.
00:16Madalas nating marinig ang salitang inner child.
00:19Pero alam nyo ba na maraming trauma ay nagsisimula sa pagkabata?
00:23Mga sugat na hindi nakikita, pero dala natin hanggang pagtanda.
00:27Kaya mahalagang mapag-usapan ang mental health ng mga bata at kabataan.
00:31Dahil sa edad na ito, nagsisimula ang stress, pressure at takot.
00:36Sa tulong ng isang eksperto, alamin kung paano natin matutulungan ang mga kabataan
00:40na harapin ang kanilang emosyon at alagaan ang kanilang mental health.
00:44Dito lang sa Rise and Shine Pilipinas.
00:49At para sagutin ang ating mga katanungan tungkol sa mental health ng kabataan,
00:54ay makakakwentuhan po natin ang Transformational Lifestyle and Energy Mentor
00:59na si Livni Fortuna Amatong.
01:02Magandang umaga po.
01:02Good morning.
01:03Magandang umaga.
01:04I'm so excited for today.
01:06Very timely.
01:08Yeah.
01:08Very relevant.
01:09Well, maraming mga magula ngayon na ito yung kinakaharap, ano?
01:12May mga mental health issues yung kanilang mga anak.
01:15So, para po sa kaalaman ng ating mga kababayan,
01:18ano po ba yung ibig sabihin ng mental health pagdating sa mga kabataan?
01:22So, para sa akin, tsaka sa mga bagay na napag-aralan ko po,
01:26it's really yung connection ng tao sa sarili nila
01:29and how safe they feel sa kanilang surrounding, sa kanilang pamilya
01:34because yun po, naniniwala naman ako na when somebody feels safe sa kanilang sarili,
01:39when they feel safe sa kanilang environment, nakakapag-express sila ng maayo.
01:42So, if hindi sila nakakaramdam ng safety sa kanilang environment,
01:46sa bahay, sa pamilya nila,
01:49they would really find it hard to regulate yung nervous system nila.
01:53So, doon nagkakaroon ng problema na hindi nila alam paano ibabalance yung kanilang emosyon
01:58kasi nga hindi sila naturuan.
02:00So, it's really having that connection sa sarili nila,
02:03tsaka sa environment po nila.
02:05So, that's for me.
02:06Ano-ano po ba yung mga kondisyon or mga mental health problem
02:11na madalas kinakaharap po ng kabataan?
02:14So, mostly naman po sa mga kabataan ngayon is anxiety, depression,
02:19yung crisis sa kanilang sarili.
02:21Hindi nila kilala yung mga sarili nila,
02:23lalo na sa rise ng social media ngayon.
02:26Kasi ang hirap, kasi people tend to compare themselves to other people.
02:29Even copy others, imitate.
02:31Yes.
02:31So, parang if they don't, hindi nila kilala yung sarili nila
02:34kasi nga, parang hindi sila marunong mag-regulate ng sarili nila.
02:37Doon nila nawawala yung self nila.
02:40Kasi yung environment din nila, lalo na important yung environment ng mga bata,
02:45kinukopia nila yung feeling nila na parang okay to.
02:47Tama to.
02:48Kasi hindi na simulan sa bahay eh.
02:49Kaya sobrang importante yung saan galing yung mga bata ngayon,
02:53tsaka sa parents din.
02:55Yeah.
02:55So, dito sa napag-uusapan natin, parang puro feelings, ano?
02:59Patungkol sa feelings kung ano yung nararamdaman ng bata.
03:02So, bukod doon, paano pa nakaka-apekto itong social media,
03:08yung bullying, yung academic pressure sa mental health ng mga kabataan ngayon?
03:13Sobrang laki ng epekto ng bullying kasi hindi lahat ng bata
03:17alam paano mag-regulate ng emotion.
03:20Lalo na, siguro yung napasa na lang siya na hindi ka pwede mag-express ng sarili.
03:24Kasi yun yung, lalo na dito sa Pilipinas, it's very religious.
03:28So, parang we stick by the rules of yung sa church and we shouldn't,
03:33we have our own culture, kumbaga.
03:35So, parang nadala siya to a point na you cannot, hindi ka pwede sumagot.
03:40Parang gano'n yung lang yan.
03:40Lalo kung nakakatanda.
03:41Yes.
03:42So, parang yung mga bata, they feel invalidated.
03:45So, if they feel invalidated, they will find ways para maging valid yung emotion nila.
03:50Yun nga lang, yung problema ngayon,
03:51yung nag-validate sa kanila,
03:53iba din yung belief na nanggaling din sa pamilya.
03:56So, it take up nila yung belief ng ibang tao sa life nila.
03:59Na sometimes, it leads to other decisions that when it causes parang not good results,
04:06nagkakaroon ng consequences na hindi nila kaya i-handle yung mga emotion nila.
04:10Kaya important talaga na matutunan ng mga bata yung safety with self
04:14and paano nila ma-regulate yung mga emotion nila through breathing
04:17o kaya yung mga simple practices wherein they really sit down with themselves.
04:22Pag-ising pa lang nila ng umaga.
04:23If it helps with the religious country, nakakatulong yung church, di ba?
04:28I mean, yung prayers.
04:29Yung faith.
04:30Pero yung if not naman sa religion, it can be through meditation, silence.
04:34So, I feel like it's something that,
04:35yun dapat yung pinupush sa mga schools ngayon,
04:38sa social media, more on,
04:40how can you be quiet and sit down with yourself?
04:43And it also starts with the parents din, di ba?
04:45It should be, the parents plays a very big role
04:48on how these children will grow up in the society natin ngayon.
04:53And siguro, I really speak very passionately about this
04:56because I have two children, which are 8 and 10.
04:58And I believe na pag napanganak nga sila,
05:01yung truth nila galing sa parents nila.
05:04So, parang yung buong buhay nila,
05:07yung pinaniniwalaan nila,
05:08kung ano yung pinaniniwalaan,
05:10the beliefs of the parents are being passed on to the children.
05:13So, yun yung truth nila.
05:14So, if the parents themselves don't know how to speak up,
05:18kasi generational na siya napapasa, di ba?
05:20Parang trauma na siya na,
05:21ah, si mama nga, si papa ganito.
05:22So, ganito din ako, I should just shut up.
05:25And they tolerate those kind of things,
05:26which ends up na parang,
05:28okay, even if I wanted to say something,
05:30I'm just gonna shut up.
05:31And doon na yung nangyayari yung emotional na parang,
05:33nagkakaroon na...
05:33Naiipon.
05:34Yes.
05:34Nababot ito.
05:36Anxiety, ganun.
05:36So, in my belief,
05:38in what I teach din through my retreats and everything,
05:42that when you don't express yourself,
05:44yung body mo yung nagmamanifest for you.
05:47So, yun nagkakaroon ng ganun na,
05:48na hindi mo na maintindihan.
05:49So, doon dapat safety starts with the home,
05:52with the parents,
05:53with the family,
05:53and the environment that they are in.
05:55O, yun, importante yun,
05:56lalo na sa parents.
05:57Kasi, syempre, very traditional.
05:59Lalo na tayo, mga Pilipino,
06:01nakabase tayo sa kultura natin.
06:03Nakapagunyari, nakakatanda,
06:05o kaya naman,
06:06bawal sumagot.
06:08Yung bawal mong express yung sarili mo na freely.
06:11Kasi ganun talaga eh.
06:132025 na ngayon,
06:14meron ba tinatawag na modern day bullying?
06:16Kasi, ang alam ko naman,
06:18lahat naman ng generation merong bullying.
06:20Bullying.
06:20True.
06:21Bakit may generation na nakasurvive?
06:23Hindi ba kailangan talaga siya yung sa process
06:26para tumigas ang isang tao?
06:28Or, iba talaga yung modern day bullying?
06:30I think, iba kasi yung modern day bullying.
06:32Ibang umatake.
06:34Tsaka, mas madami kang makikita.
06:36Lalo na sa social media.
06:37Pag in-open mo palang yung social media,
06:39kung ano-ano na yung sasabihin sa'yo,
06:41tapos feeling mo,
06:42ay, totoo na ba ito?
06:43Or parang,
06:44mas mabilis.
06:45Oo, iindahin mo.
06:46Tsaka, may labels na ngayon eh.
06:47Di ba dati,
06:48pag pinapagalitan tayo,
06:49parang kim-kim-in na lang natin.
06:51Pero ngayon,
06:51nilabel na siya as depression.
06:54Or, meron na siyang iba-ibang names.
06:55So, parang,
06:56for me,
06:57some people are entitled
06:58to step into that label.
07:00Kaya nafe-feel ng body nila.
07:01Ah, okay.
07:02So, tinatanggap nila.
07:03Ah, anxiety na to.
07:04So, na-anxiety na.
07:05Yes.
07:06So, ganoon.
07:06So, ini-embody nila.
07:07Whereas, nyo dati,
07:08wala naman tayong ganun, di ba?
07:10Tinatry talaga natin yung best.
07:11At labanin natin to.
07:12Pero now, parang,
07:14anxiety,
07:14and then they read the labels.
07:15And they will,
07:16that's just on my...
07:17Self-diagnose.
07:18Yeah.
07:19And it's not to,
07:20naman to cancel
07:21those,
07:21the professionals.
07:23Just that the beliefs
07:24that we have,
07:25we start to embody it.
07:26The body will embody it.
07:28And thus,
07:28comes to reality.
07:29So, I feel like
07:30we have a responsibility
07:32din as parents din.
07:34Yeah.
07:34So, kailan ba yung tamang panahon
07:36para humingi ng tulong
07:37itong mga kabataan po natin?
07:39Sa mga professionals po?
07:41Psychologists,
07:42psychiatrists?
07:43Ang tamang panahon is
07:44when you feel,
07:45as a parent siguro,
07:47speaking from a parent's side,
07:48when you feel na nagwi-withdraw na
07:49yung anak mo,
07:50when they don't speak up,
07:51when they start to
07:52parang nagagalit lagi,
07:53like, it's very,
07:55nagagano na.
07:56And sa first pa lang,
07:57I feel like
07:58diretso man na
07:58i-consult agad.
07:59Kasi nga,
08:00with everything that's happening,
08:01kailangan agad-agad din
08:03ang action for me.
08:04And, yun,
08:05that's the time
08:06that you should really seek
08:07for someone
08:08who is professionally
08:09into that field.
08:11Yeah.
08:11Well,
08:12anong maipapayin nyo
08:13dun sa mga
08:14kabataan naman,
08:15ano?
08:16Na nahihiyang magsalita?
08:19Tungkol sa kanilang
08:19mga feelings?
08:21Yeah.
08:21For me,
08:22you're not broken.
08:23There's nothing to fix.
08:24It's just really to
08:25start asking for help.
08:28Find someone
08:29that you feel
08:30really safe with.
08:31Because when you find
08:32someone na safe ka,
08:33nagsastart ka mag-express eh.
08:35At important na
08:36ma-feel mo
08:37na regulated
08:37tsaka kalma ka
08:38because the more
08:39connected ka sa sarili mo,
08:41the more ka
08:41nakakapag-isip,
08:42the more ka
08:43nakaka-express.
08:44And I feel like
08:44expression na yung
08:45nawawala ngayon eh.
08:46So,
08:47hindi ka,
08:47you're not broken,
08:49you're just
08:49finding your way back.
08:50And lalo na ngayon
08:51with everything else,
08:52you should really
08:53allow yourself to
08:54find someone
08:55that you can trust
08:56and so that
08:57you can express.
08:58So,
08:59okay ka lang.
08:59Yeah.
09:00As for support.
09:01Yun.
09:01So,
09:02sa ating mga magulang
