FIRST SWELDO KO AT 26, AFTER YEARS NA LUGMOK 😭 2019 pa ako graduate pero ngayon lang ako nagka-work. Hindi dahil tam@d, may mild schizophrenia ako. Ilang taon akong lugmok sa bahay, sobrang hirap hallucinations, walang tulog. Akala ko wala nang chance makabangon.
Pero this year, tinapangan ko. Na-hire ako, now earning 24k/month! 😭 Hindi man malaki, pero proud ako sa sarili ko. Kung ikaw rin, feeling mo wala nang pag-asa, meron pa, swear. 🫶

Relate ako sa delayed start. Akala ko last na ako sa batch namin makahanap ng trabaho. Ang dami ko ring pinagdadaanan mentally. Pero ayun, naka-first job din after ilang taon. Hindi siya race, promise. Proud din ako sa’yo!

naiiyak ako kasi same! Ang tagal ko rin bago naka-work not because I didn’t try, pero dahil mentally hindi ko kinaya. First sweldo ko? Binili ko lang food para sa bahay, pero parang trophy na siya

Hi, out of topic, but I just want to know if it is okay to disclose it or not during interview that you have a mental health problem. especially if it is the reason of your employment gap.
