Abstract

The concept of a well-lived life among individuals in early adulthood mainly focus on how they navigate life transitions and achieve personal success. Utilizing a phenomenological approach, semi-structured interview was used with twelve Filipino young adults aged 25 to 35 years old. Thematic analysis revealed four major themes: Empowered Purpose, highlighting resilience and coping strategies; Building Bonds, emphasizing the importance of relationships and support; Art of Balance, addressing work-life harmony; and Behind the Persona, which explores the challenges and uncertainties faced by young adults. Findings suggest that a well-lived life is intricately tied to personal values, social connections, and the ability to adapt to life's complexities. The study contributes to understanding how young adults perceive fulfillment and success amid contemporary societal pressures, offering insights for practices in education, mental health, and social policy. The LIFE self-help plan is devised to help young adults engage in mindfulness and self-compassion practices in realizing a healthy concept of a well-lived life.

Abstract

Mental health service utilization remains low in the Philippines despite high rates of psychological distress and recent legislative reforms; and understanding individual and cultural determinants of help-seeking is seen as critical. This cross-sectional study investigated the influence of personality factors on attitudes toward seeking mental health services among Filipino adults. Using standardized measures, data were collected from 294 Filipino respondents. Descriptive analysis revealed personality trait profiles with high Agreeableness, Openness to Experience, Conscientiousness, and low Neuroticism which indicate a generally positive orientation toward seeking professional psychological help and less stigmatized approach to seeking mental health support. In addition, correlation analysis revealed that conscientiousness (r =. 155, p < .001) and extraversion (r = .128, p < .05) are positively associated with psychological openness and help-seeking propensity attitudes respectively; conscientiousness (r=.131, p<.05) is positively associated with indifference to stigma; while neuroticism (r = -.209, p < .001; r = -.128, p < .05) was negatively associated with psychological openness and indifference to stigma. Personality traits of conscientiousness and extraversion serve as facilitating factors for psychological openness and help-seeking propensity, while neuroticism consistently acts as a barrier, diminishing openness and imposing sensitivity to stigma. The results serve as a basis in recommending culturally sensitive interventions that address both internal and systemic barriers to improve mental health service utilization in the Filipino context.
