💙 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱: 𝗟𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗨𝗽 𝗕𝗹𝘂𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 💙

Last October 10, the CDC Guidance Office, together with our Cadocians, joined the initiative by Philippine Mental Health Association, Inc. (PMHA) to 𝗟𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗨𝗽 𝗕𝗹𝘂𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 — a symbolic act that shines a 𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗵𝗼𝗽𝗲, 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 for mental well-being.

As the room glowed in calming shades of blue, our students stood together in solidarity; reminding everyone that 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀, and that every small act of awareness can spark change. 🌱

Let us continue to build 𝗮 𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗽𝘂𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲𝘀 𝗲𝗺𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗵𝘆, 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲; where every light represents a story, and 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀. 🫂

As we commemorate 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱 with the theme “𝘈𝘤𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘚𝘦𝘳𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘴 – 𝘔𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘏𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘵𝘩 𝘪𝘯 𝘊𝘢𝘵𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘌𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘴,” we are reminded that emotional wounds in times of disasters, conflict, or crises are just as real as physical ones. ❤️‍🩹

In the school setting, this means ensuring that students, teachers, and staff have 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁, even in the most challenging times. We can all take part through 𝗣𝘀𝘆𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗙𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗔𝗶𝗱 (𝗣𝗙𝗔) — 𝘓𝘰𝘰𝘬, 𝘓𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯, 𝘓𝘪𝘯𝘬:

Let us also honor the Filipino spirit of 𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗵𝗮𝘄𝗮 — finding inner ease, relief, and strength through community, family ties, and bayanihan. Together, we can help one another rebuild with meaning, compassion, and connection. 🫂

🕯️ 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗦𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱: 𝗩𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 🕯️

Last September, the CDC Guidance Office, in collaboration with the CDC Psychological Society (College of Psychology), joined the global observance of 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗦𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟱, under the theme “𝘊𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘕𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘰𝘯 𝘚𝘶𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘦”, calling us all to challenge stigma and create spaces for open, compassionate conversations.

To deepen understanding and compassion, the team conducted 𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺-𝘁𝗼-𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗺 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀, where students participated in brief discussions and interactive activities about 𝘀𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲, 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗺𝘆𝘁𝗵𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽. These sessions aimed to dispel misconceptions and encourage open conversations about mental health and support. 🎗️

Alongside this, a 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗱 𝗛𝘂𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 was set up in the corridor outside the Guidance Office, open for everyone in the campus community to participate. Students were invited to choose and answer reflective questions such as:

💭 𝘞𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘥?
💭 𝘈𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 𝘭𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺?
💭 𝘋𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘸 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧 𝘵𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵?
💭 𝘞𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘧𝘦𝘭𝘵 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘥?
💭 𝘈𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘵?

After writing their heartfelt responses and dropping them into the box, participants picked a random 𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 prepared by the Guidance Office — a note of encouragement meant to remind them that they are 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗻, 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗱, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲𝗱. 🧡

Through these simple yet heartfelt moments, students were able to express themselves, connect with others, and be reminded that 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘃𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 and that 𝗻𝗼 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗲. 🌼

All entries were handled with confidentiality and care by the CDC Guidance Office.

If you ever need someone to talk to, we are always here for you:

Together, let us continue to nurture a compassionate community that listens, supports, and uplifts; because 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀. 🩵

Teaching profession is truly a noble one, as nobody can tell when and where the teachers' influences may stop. They continue to inspire their students as they eventually become the professionals of the future.

Teachers also symbolize the essence of true success -- the ability to inspire and share knowledge far beyond any textbook can contain, their diverse way of instilling values, discipline, and beliefs apart from what we're born into, as well as their compassionate way of teaching on how to pour one's heart and genuine passion for everything that you chose to do.

To all educators around the world, you deserve to be recognized and treated with utmost respect. May you continue inspiring and shaping young minds into professionals that they're meant to be, and to never get tired of showing dedication and grit in your noble profession. 💝

On this September 10, 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱 𝗦𝘂𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗗𝗮𝘆, we come together to spread the message that no matter how heavy life feels, 𝗵𝗼𝗽𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗹𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵. 🌱

The theme for this year, “𝐶ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑁𝑎𝑟𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑜𝑛 𝑆𝑢𝑖𝑐𝑖𝑑𝑒,” encourages us to #𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 — breaking the silence, building compassion, and creating a culture where it’s safe to speak openly about struggles.

Sometimes a simple conversation with a friend, loved one, or professional can be life-changing. Remember, 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗡𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗥 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗲 — the CDC Guidance Office is ALWAYS here if you need someone to turn to. 💛

𝗕𝗶𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿 is a complex mental health condition that affects millions of individuals worldwide. It presents unique challenges, yet those who live with it demonstrate remarkable resilience and strength.

On this day, we emphasize the importance of awareness, education, and support in fostering a more understanding and compassionate society. Breaking the stigma surrounding mental health requires collective effort, and through open conversations and informed perspectives, we can create an environment where individuals feel seen, heard, and supported.

𝗨𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗕𝗶𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿: 𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗶𝗴𝗺𝗮

𝗕𝗶𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿 is a mental health condition that causes extreme mood swings, ranging from 𝘦𝘱𝘪𝘴𝘰𝘥𝘦𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘢 𝘰𝘳 𝘩𝘺𝘱𝘰𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘢 (𝘩𝘪𝘨𝘩 𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘨𝘺, 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘶𝘭𝘴𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘵𝘺, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘦𝘥 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘴𝘭𝘦𝘦𝘱) 𝘵𝘰 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘥𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘥𝘦𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯 (𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘴𝘢𝘥𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴, 𝘧𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘨𝘶𝘦, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘴). These mood shifts can significantly impact daily life, relationships, and overall well-being.

There are different types of bipolar disorder: 𝗕𝗶𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗜, which includes severe manic episodes that may require hospitalization; 𝗕𝗶𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗜𝗜, which involves hypomanic episodes along with major depressive episodes; and 𝗖𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘁𝗵𝘆𝗺𝗶𝗰 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿, a milder but chronic form with frequent mood fluctuations. While the exact cause is not fully understood, research suggests that genetic, biological, and environmental factors contribute to its development.

Raising awareness and fostering understanding can help break the stigma surrounding bipolar disorder. With proper treatment—such as medication, therapy, and lifestyle adjustments—those affected can manage their symptoms and lead meaningful, fulfilling lives.

"A woman is like a tea bag -- you can't tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water."
-- Eleanor Roosevelt

Always remember that being a woman doesn't equate to weakness and fragility; it has been always spelled as S-T-R-O-N-G and B-R-A-V-E. Regardless of your race, sexual orientation, profession, and role in the community and in your family, being a woman is something you should be proud of.
