Mental Health sa Pinas: Mahal, Mahirap, at Hindi Priority? A Real Talk Conversation

Let's talk about #mentalhealth “Bakit ang hirap magpatingin?” This is the question millions of Filipinos silently ask, pero walang makausap. In this raw, brutally honest episode of Madami Akong Kuda – The Podcast, hosts Sheryl LD and Sariah Guanzon unpack the REAL state of mental health in the Philippines — bakit sobrang mahal, bakit sobrang hirap magpa-appointment, at bakit “pang-mayaman” pa rin ang tingin ng karamihan sa therapy. 👉 In this episode, we dive into: • Why therapy costs ₱2,500–₱4,000 per session • The painful reality: 1 psychiatrist for every 170,000 Filipinos • Bakit ang daming self-diagnosed sa TikTok (clue: lack of access) • How HMOs and PhilHealth fail to support mental health • When you should actually seek help (warning signs you shouldn’t ignore) • The cultural gaslighting we grew up with: “Hindi ka dapat madepress,” “Malakas ka nga, eh,” etc. • The Emman Atienza Bill and why reform is urgent • How cyberbullying and online cruelty impact mental health • The silent struggles of OFWs, breadwinners, at mga “functional pero pagod na” Filipinos This episode is for YOU — the one holding it together kahit pagod, the one pretending to be okay, the one who can’t afford therapy but needs someone to understand. You are not dramatic. You are not weak. You are human. And you deserve accessible, affordable, compassionate mental health care.
