Pia Wurtzbach opens up on her mental health journey: “I’m writing this, not to be paawa”

Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach expressed her honest thoughts and sentiments as she opened up about her mental health journey.

In her Instagram account, Pia posted a stunning photo of her. In the said photo, Pia looked gorgeous with her white dress.

Pia gave an update about her mental health journey as she opened up about the recent event that triggered some memories and emotions about her past. According to Pia, she opened up not to gain sympathy but to remind everyone that it is fine to feel down sometimes.

“I posted this on my stories and I received a lot of replies so I thought I’d share it on my timeline as well. 💙 Today was a fruitful day — connecting with friends and checking up on each other. Honestly, I was hesitating to post it noong una, but then I saw that a lot of people can relate to it pala… so here goes.

So I’ve been preparing for this big speech the past couple of weeks. It’s really personal and some of the things I shared triggered some memories/emotions that I kept inside for too long. You guys know
naman my childhood/young adult years were quite challenging. I’m happy I pushed through and I’ll share it with you guys very soon. But yes it did put me in a bad place for a few days. 😅

Sometimes when you go back to the past, it still stings! And even for someone like me who looks like they got their life together from the outside, could still be going through a mental health journey. And I guess I’m writing this, not to be paawa or ask for sympathy, cos I’m okay naman. But to remind you that IT’S OKAY to be down sometimes. And IT’S OKAY to talk about it openly!

I don’t know, but maybe somebody needs to hear this today. You’re okay, talk it out and take some time to do what’s good for your mental health. 💙” Pia wrote in the caption.
