feel better every time i talk to them and open it up with them my
problems. They always there for me, and they always understand my
situation."
"I preferred to open up to my friends, rather than open it up to my family.
The reason why i mostly open it to my friends because we always
together at school, we spend more time together at school and mostly we
have same situation that's why i think they can relate on what i fell, so i
prefer open it up to friends."
"Mostly, I don't share my problems to others. I can open thought maybe
to my close friends and my cousins, but if it's personal i mostly solved it
by myself."

Friends was at my province, then when i came back here in Manila we meet up
and got a chance to unwind, then i forget my problems and it lessen my 7

myself, with the two of them I find comfort.
17

that opening it to others it doesn't help solving my problem. But it's okay with
Wants to be alone me opening it to others also; i have someone that i want to share my problems
to but only non-important problems and randomly thoughts. I don't share 1
personal problems because for me it’s different and i feel they can't help me,
but instead they can make it worse."
"My girlfriend, because to her i expressed myself and what i feel. I feel better
Partner every time i open up to her, and at the same time I ask advice from her if what's 1
the best thing to do."

mind."
"Yes, it's effective, but sometimes I also want to have someone with me."

"Yes, maybe too much. When I'm alone, I don't feel any pressure, and I
can handle my emotions by myself."
No "It's not helpful because it can worsen your depression if you don't have
anyone to talk to. It's better to have someone to talk to and release your 1
problems to."
19
•Can being alone be an effective self-help technique for managing your anxiety?

"It depends on the situation. Sometimes yes, sometimes no. It's better to
have someone with you that you can confide in."
"It depends because when you're alone, it feels like your problems are
increasing, but there are times when you need to be alone to refresh your
mind. There are times when I can handle my problems alone, but there
are also times when I need someone to talk to and get advice from,
Sometimes especially when I reach a point where I don't know what to do anymore.
Sometimes, I prefer to be alone because I feel like even though people
are listening, they might just be talking about me behind my back." 5
"Sometimes yes, sometimes no. When I'm alone, I feel like nobody wants
to listen to me, but there are also times when I just want to be alone."
"Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Being alone can hurt yourself, but
having someone with you can help and advise you about your anxiety."

alone without anyone else."
Table 7:
20
•What are the coping mechanisms you use that calm you down and make you feel better when you are having an attack of
anxiety?

"I just sing at home, eat like that, talk to my friend to relax, and relax
myself just to lose him."
Sing "What do I sing and then amuse myself by playing the guitar, and how 2
does it calm me down."
"Those who watch k drama, Tik Tok or online games to get my mind off
the problem of inhaling and exhaling."
Watching videos "What do I do when I have anxiety? I just watch TV and go to sleep. That 2
way, I calm myself down."
"Crying is what I really want; I want to let it out when I cry while I really
cry, and I will just cry all the time so that all the plagues can come out,
but I also want to cry with a sound because when there is no sound, you
Cry are hiding it as if it is just accumulating there. I'm going to kill myself 1
because I've tried that, and that's why I learned to let it out when you feel
it. I cried without a sound; the pain in your chest will make you mentally
block, and then you want to commit suicide. You're only positive, and
that's how life is. I don't really have a hobby like singing; even when I
cook, I cook, but food is not really my stress reliever."
21
•What are the coping mechanisms you use that calm you down and make you feel better when you are having an attack of
anxiety?

"Listening to calming music, like K-pop music, which calms you down
when you have a problem."
"Hhm, first is listening to music, but the beat is slow, or sometimes I want
Listening music to go faster, usually listening to RnB or pop or reading Croxocy to calm 3
me down."
"Maybe I'll watch and listen to music because that's how I relax."
"Just sleep that's all."

"Maybe I just sleep when I cry; maybe because someone sees me, I hide 2
Sleep it from them."
Table 8: Coping mechanisms that calms them down and make them feel better when they have anxiety attack
22
•Do you think it is important to have motivation especially in this situation you are experiencing?

"Of course, if you're already having a breakdown and you can't find any
motivation, you'll just have an even bigger breakdown. When I have a
breakdown, I need motivation to boost my confidence in areas where I'm weak
and to lift me up to be more than what I currently am. Yes, of course. When I
have motivation, I become stronger."
"Like inspiration? I think it's important because if you have inspiration, you
won't think about the things that brought you down before. Having good
inspiration is important because it makes you think about things that can help
you grow and be inspired every day."
"Yes. With motivation, we can establish goals and have direction towards where
Yes we want to go. Motivation is really important because we need to have a
reason for our actions and live our lives with purpose. We really need 10
motivation; that's one of the major things that can help us do better with what
we're doing, especially during times when we're feeling like this. Of course, you
need to motivate yourself and tell yourself that it's not always going to be like
this. It's a part of life to have breakdowns and to feel like you're drowning, but
it's not always going to be like that. These kinds of things can really help,
especially for those who are going through such situations.
"I think yes, because everyone needs motivation, but sometimes I also need
motivation because sometimes I feel down about myself and lose interest in
everything."
23
•Do you think it is important to have motivation especially in this situation you are experiencing?

"Of course, I need motivation so that I can rebuild myself again and regain my
former confidence."
"Yes, it is important because it will really help me overcome my problems."
"Yes, you need someone to be with so that they don't call you crazy, because
when you have something like that, sometimes you'll just be overwhelmed and
suddenly burst into tears."
"Yes, because once you have motivation, it's like you have a purpose in life,
something to fight for, something you believe in or stand for, or a source of
strength.,
"Of course, everyone wants motivation because it really helps a lot, especially
when there are many problems."
"Yes. When I lack motivation, I feel like I have no will to continue. But if I have
something to look forward to, like meeting my friends or going out."
Table 9: Importance of motivation to them during a devastating situation they're in.:
24
•For you, what is the reason why you want to overcome it, fight and stand again in every pain that we experience in our
life?

"Of course, my mom She's my inspiration; she's the reason why I don't
give up on things when I'm weak because if I'm tired, my mom is even
Parents more tired. If my mom can do it, so can I." 2
"For my parents, they are the ones who depend on me, and I am my
family's only hope, so I really have to work hard."
"She's not the only one around you all the time; there are people who you
can focus on too; she's not the only problem you have, and you're not the
only one experiencing that. Just imagine that there are many people like
that. In life, you don't need to get depressed and down; sometimes you
also have to fight to start a new beginning."
"It's a lesson in life so I can learn more, deal with my problems, learn to
be independent, or face all my problems so that if people can't calm me
down, I will do it myself."
"To be a better me so that I can be a better me next time and grow more, 4
to be mature."
Independent "I want to overcome it because, honestly, it's like a burden in my life. As if
instead my life is going on and it suddenly comes to a stop, as if I can't
seem to handle it. I have to learn to overcome and fight it so I'm not
always very dependent, because when I have an anxiety attack, I usually
become too dependent. Because in life you don't always have someone
with you, sometimes you just have to rely on yourself, so I want to
overcome it alone, even though I am lonely."
25
•For you, what is the reason why you want to overcome it, fight and stand again in every pain that we experience in our
life?

Dreams "Maybe you will think that you have a dream, and then you will use what
happened as a lesson to motivate you to live. The crying is because it's
like you're doing it to get it out. Before, I was really just harboring it;
maybe that's why you're thinking about things, then you blame yourself
for their uselessness. Then, as if you had always been here, you blamed
yourself for being useless in the world. That crying seems to be telling
you that you have a dream; you're not really like this; he just became a
part of your life. Maybe just think about your dreams and what your
parents did to you, then think that your family is also there for you, even if
sometimes they are one of the reasons why you became like that, but
let's think that they can still help because they are our family." 3
"In the dream, when there is something like that, just don't mind it so it
doesn't get worse. You have to fight it for your family too, and you have to
work hard to avoid that."
"Because one of my dreams is to graduate, I think that I have to fight
because I have a dream for my family and have promised my mom to
graduate."
Motivation "Of course, I have to go back to the way I was before, when I was happy,
because I will go to school, and then face-to-face classes will be back 1
again. Of course, it is difficult if we have problems socializing with people
again because we will not have proper communication."
