Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, October 19) — Actress Francine Diaz on Wednesday shared that she often avoids social media to protect her mental health.
Diaz told CNN Philippines’ The Final Word that while social media is important in promoting her upcoming shows, it has become toxic especially for people in the showbiz industry.
\”Since alam ko kung paano alagaan ‘yung mental health ko, umiiwas ako [Since I know how to take care of my mental health, I avoid social media],\” she said.
\”Hinahayaan ko na lang na sabihin nila lahat ng gusto nilang sabihin because I know the time will come na lalabas din ‘yung totoo,\” the actress added.
[Translation: I just let them say whatever they want to say because I know the time will come when the truth will come out.]
As for her TikTok content creation, Diaz said she noticed that her followers appreciate more spontaneous, raw, and funny videos.
\”Dapat kilala mo rin ‘yung pino-project mong image sa mga tao. From there, doon ka makaka-isip ng mga content na pwedeng gawin,\” she said.
[Translation: You should also know the image you are projecting to people. From there, you can think of content that can be created.]
