    me and my bf actually talked about this — ‘papano kung ganyan yung anak natin?’ and upon watching the film, isa lang masasabi ko: love comes in many forms, including sacrifice.

    “your doubts make you more real, not less.” 

    ocd representation is at surface level only, but i can't say that the representation is bad. it doesn't glorify the disorder, nor does it romanticize it. cried a lot cause i can really see myself in the way aza thinks and feels. honestly, if people are gonna ask me what its like living with ocd, i'll probs just ask them to watch this movie cause it's got the gist of it - may not be entirely what every person with ocd experiences, but the horrors of intrusive thoughts and feeling like you're a burden was captured quite authentically.
