Description:
"Kumusta?"
Sagot ko, "Ok lang." Di nila alam. Inside, hindi ako OK.
Hindi ko na kaya ang one more day...of feeling depressed. Anxious. Afraid.
Your struggle is real. "Paano ko maoovercome ito," isip mo, "kung surviving lang ang hirap na?" In this comforting book on mental health, Ronald Molmisa offers encouraging guidance and help. "Hindi kailangang magmukmok," he says. "Keep your face towards God's restoring light."
In your darkness, the light of God's love is stronger. Sa tulong Niya, kaya mong mabuhay ng may kapayapaan at pag-asa.
The Struggle Is Real acknowledges that there’s a hidden pandemic going on: The pandemic of mental health issues. The writer, a seasoned pastor, counselor, and researcher wrote the book to offer hope and help to mental health survivors and their loved ones.
Ronald Molmisa writes, “Ang ibabahagi ko sa inyo ay mga mental health issues na madalas inilalapit sa akin for counseling and resolution. Hangarin ko na magkaroon kayo ng mas malawak na kaalaman kung paano uunawain at tutulungan ang mga dumadaan sa ganitong mga kundisyon. Maraming mga kaisipan at attitudes na kailangang burahin sa ating lipunan.”
