“I am still undergoing therapy. Nag-therapy ako noon, nagthe-therapy pa rin ako ngayon. At 'yun ang isang bagay na hindi ko gustong ihinto. Parang ginagawa kong regular 'yung pagthe-therapy kasi gusto kong matulungan ang sarili ko, kasi marami pa 'kong gustong gawin,” Vice explained.

“Tulad ng maraming breadwinners, marami pa siyang pangarap. Marami pang nakapasan sa akin, marami pa 'kong gustong gawin. Gusto kong manatiling malusog hindi lang ang pangangatawan ko, kung 'di ang kaisipan ko.”

“Ano namang nakakahiya kung nagthe-therapy ako? Yeah nagthe-therapy ako and I’m proud of it. At ito'y isang bagay na hindi natin pinagdadalawang isipan na gawin. Going to a therapy, or seeking help sa isang psychiatrist, psychologist o sa isang professional, should be as normal as going to the dentist,” Vice stressed.

And in the process of preparing for the movie, since it will require Vice to pour out different emotions throughout the emotionally-packed scenes, Vice had a workshop with director Jun Lana and acting coach Malou de Guzman.

“It was very hard at that time,” Vice briefly paused and looked like she was trying to fight her tears from falling. “Nung nag-workshop ako sa kanya that was the time, I was about to restart my therapy. 'Yun 'yung time na magsisimula ako ulit ng therapy. Durog ako nung mga time na 'yun. Durog ako pero hindi ko siya na-a-address.”

“Bago pa gawin 'yung pelikula nandun na si Direk (Jun Lana) at si Tita Malou. At ang laking biyaya na nasa cast siya, kasi nandun siya to guide me all the way. Napakaswerte ko, siya 'yung tumulong sa akin,” Vice said.
