It is time to STOP.

It took me about a day to finally broke the silence. Enough is enough.

My feeds and walls for all social media were flooded with the unfortunate news of a teen boy stabbing a teen girl. As they are both underage, no photos of them should be on the media.

Now, it became an issue to me to see all these viral photos and videos of either the boy, girl, their family members crying or “experts” popping up all over the places. Investigations are still running yet “experts” already started mushrooming all over the places.

People starting to interprate the boy’s history. From his notes, noobies pretend as experts, singles comment as if they raise a child, people who never touched any games started commenting how games corrupted mindset, confused pretend as psychologists, keyboard warriors as forensics and school skippers commented as educationists.

Yes, it is an unfortunate news. BUT probably time to stop pretending? Come on… even experts need to use proper tools for diagnosis. It took us few sessions just to build proper rapport with clients but it took 1 single viral photo for someone to become an expert.

Think… when it is time to stop sharing… STOP.

𝓐 𝓜𝓪𝓳𝓸𝓻 𝓓𝓮𝓬𝓲𝓼𝓲𝓸𝓷

It was about 10 months ago that out of the blue, I decided to take up a second master's degree while still having multiple things on my plate. I was accepted almost immediately. Honestly, it was "for fun".

Things started changing in March when my classes started. I became someone I, myself do not know. I became grumpy and I frowned a lot. The journey was not as excited as I thought. Things flying everywhere irregardless of assignments, group projects or even politics in a group as small as 5 people.

The semester ended sometime end of July and second semester was to take place in September. I lost my passion. I went into deep thoughts. Is it worth it? I spent so much already.

I could not see light. I went into deep thoughts. I could not sleep. I had flashbacks of how my life were. I was hospitalised more often than I thought.

Why would I place myself in such situation when I am preaching self-care? That would be . I took two weeks long leave to think what I needed to do and what I should've done earlier. I left.

I am much happier now. I enjoyed my work. I love my . Some said they could see me .

Sometimes, sunk cost effect might be the major factor. As long as I could just sweep the cost and put down my pride, saying might not be a bad thing. It just highlights my better and tells me where to more.

should not just be a hashtag. It should not just be a post. It never should've just been a poster. It starts from . If someone in the field were to be shaped until you cannot recognise yourself, .

In conjunction with Malaysia's National Counselling month, I am back to do what I love most.

《PAPA 爸爸》

我相信大家对于2025年6月12日凌晨发生的双重命案都感到震惊。有些人开始制作影片，有些人则开始推测动机。

如果你听得懂广东话，我诚心推荐你观看《PAPA 爸爸》这部根据真实故事改编的电影。它传递了许多关于心理健康的重要讯息。

这是一位父亲的故事。他原本是屠夫，后来为了照顾小家庭（妻子、女儿与儿子）而转行经营一间小咖啡厅（人生转变）。但他的世界在某个深夜被摧毁——他的儿子在半夜挥刀砍杀，夺走了母亲与妹妹的生命。事后，儿子阿明恢复意识后自行报警并自首。

年仅15岁的阿明在审判期间被诊断患有思觉失调症（精神分裂症），最终被判终身监禁于精神病院。整部电影清楚描绘了他早期的精神状况，只是我们常常忽略这些警讯。他经常失眠、听到脑中有声音要他“减少人口”，也遭受校园霸凌，所有痛苦他都默默承受，甚至自残，用拳头击打自己的腹部与头部。

这是一个极其困难的处境。父亲必须接受儿子生病的事实，同时也面对失去挚爱的双重打击。他自责没有多关注儿子的异样，甚至请求是否可以让妻女合葬，因为女儿和母亲感情非常亲密。

阿明与父亲都没有获得好好哀悼的空间。父亲承受巨大压力，直到有一天他看到一位女士在教导自闭症孩子用数数方式来安定情绪，这才让他学会把自己带回当下。他们很长一段时间都避免提及当晚的事。

学心理学的同学都知道，哀伤包含否认、愤怒、讨价还价、沮丧与接受。对他们来说，历经长久的压抑，终于能哭出来与面对失落。他们也参加了家庭治疗，试图理解整个事件。阿明也在治疗中首次向父亲表达，24小时经营的咖啡厅夺走了他们原本的幸福。

在传统亚洲家庭中，我们不太表达爱，反而习惯压抑不满，把心事隐藏起来，即使面对最亲近的人。我们期望孩子自动懂得遵守家庭规则，但很多时候这些规则从未被说出口。简单的事，却被搞得复杂。

阿明的父亲必须经历所有的哀伤，才能接受儿子这个“既是儿子也是加害者”的角色。他们都在寻求一个未曾得到的结束方式。父亲学会用写信的方式表达情绪，而阿明则在快满18岁时写信给他，除了请求原谅，也叮嘱他好好照顾自己，作为他的18岁生日愿望。

在那次生日探访中，阿明准备告诉父亲当晚发生了什么。令人动容的是，父亲说了一句话：「不用说，除非那会对你有所帮助，否则今天先不要提起。」你能体会这句话中“对不起”的力量吗？它让父亲终于获得一些释怀。

在精神病院两年后，阿明决定服用抗精神病药物，病情逐渐稳定。法官也根据他的状况，几年后决定释放他。是的，父子俩从此都要背负着罪恶感一起生活。

回到我们马六甲的案件，我无法确认当时发生了什么。但我相信，杀人并不是一件容易做出的行为，背后一定有精神健康的警讯或触发点。

总的来说，精神健康问题不应成为犯罪的借口，但察觉生活中的小细节，却能成为预防悲剧的力量。药物可能会帮助病人，但在这过程中，「连结」、「支持」、「爱」、「改变的意愿」、「与自己和他人的和解」，还有最重要的——「重新找回生命的意义」——才能真正帮助一个人长远地掌控自己的人生。

我们常常想知道「为什么会发生这件事」。但知道原因并不一定能带来释怀。有时候，比起探究过去，想一想「我现在可以做什么」会更有帮助。

心理健康没有唯一的正确答案。没有单一的病因，也没有单一的治疗方式。因此，从生物、社会与文化三个层面着手，才能更全面地协助个体。

今天，我有成功让你想去看一部电影吗？欢迎和我分享！

Unpopular Opinion

This might be an unpopular opinion yet I wish to bring it to the public. There is a clear distinction between professional and advocate.

In the last 1 week, I’ve seen countless sponsored ads appearing on my wall claiming to be part of mental health providing services but upon checking, they are “advocates”.

Here’s the clear line:

Advocates are supporters and believers of an agenda while professionals are trained professionals for that field.

It is very inappropriate for someone who sells pillow and claim to be part of the field when sleep is just one of the long list of mental health. Yes, I agree on your part in helping insomnia. BUT having insomnia does not mean that they suffer from mental health issues.

Not just pillows, some are ACTUAL professionals that claimed to have a cut of the cake. Yea, you read me right. Let me cut it down to smaller chunks for you to understand.

Mental health industry consists of many different professionals handling different portfolios. We have psychiatrists, speech therapists, occupational therapists, nutritionists, dietitians, physiotherapists, counselling or clinical psychologists, special needs educationists, nurses etc.

But, the main people are the psychiatrists and psychologists. A person with similar experience but of different background cannot come forward to claim they are in the field and started conducting talks, giving out certificates or even provide consultations related to this.

It applies the same to us. A psychologist who is good in fitness training does not go around and tell people he is physiotherapist. A psychologist who takes good care of his diet does not go out giving diet and nutrition talks on behalf of other profession.

Let’s respect each other’s boundaries and remember the main ethics: do no harm. If you are dragging people from getting proper help with your half past six knowledge, conducting consultations with cash comes first and harm comes second, think again why you come into the servicing line. You can achieve better at corporate.

Happy Labour Day!
Today, we honor the dedication, strength, and resilience of every hardworking soul — from office desks to factory floors, from caregivers to creatives. 💪💼

But remember:
🌿 Rest is productive too.
Behind every achievement is a person who deserves balance, care, and support — mentally and emotionally.

💬 Take this day to breathe, recharge, and reflect.
Your well-being matters just as much as your work.

🖤 Grief isn’t a straight line.
The Kübler-Ross Model reminds us that there are 5 stages of grief:
1️⃣ Denial
2️⃣ Anger
3️⃣ Bargaining
4️⃣ Depression
5️⃣ Acceptance

You may not go through them in order.
You might revisit some more than once.
And that’s okay.

💬 Grief is deeply personal — there's no "right" way to feel.
💛 With support, healing is possible — one step, one breath at a time.

💥 "I didn’t mean to explode… it just happened."
Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED) is a condition marked by sudden outbursts of anger or aggression that feel out of proportion to the situation.

People with IED may:
🔸 Yell, throw things, or become physically aggressive
🔸 Regret their actions deeply after the episode
🔸 Feel embarrassed, ashamed, or confused
🔸 Struggle to explain why they “snapped”

These reactions aren’t always about the moment — they can stem from underlying emotional wounds, trauma, or difficulty managing stress.

💡 IED isn’t just a “bad temper.”
It’s a mental health issue that can improve with awareness, emotional regulation, and counseling support.

You’re not alone — seeking help is a strength, not a weakness. 💛
