him to his dream course because they have a plan for their child. The father enrolled him at
one of the marine school here in Iloilo City. Joaquin trying to accept the fact he can’t go to
the dream course he want but to follow what his father to withdraw the enrollment in the

psychiatrist for his condition. He survives the depression and Anxiety all by himself and did
all his best to overcome depression without any medication. Many say that "Time heals all
wounds" It takes time to overcome the depression by helping yourself to get up and choose

interesting things that helps him for his mental health and he try to improve his sleep. So
