Her message quickly resonated with fans, who thanked her for being honest about mental health and for using her platform to uplift others.
Rabiya Mateo first gained national recognition after winning Miss Universe Philippines 2020, proudly representing Iloilo City before competing on the global Miss Universe stage. Following her pageant career, she moved into acting, television, and endorsements, steadily building a name for herself in showbiz. Along the way, she has spoken openly about self-love, perseverance, and mental health, becoming an advocate for emotional wellness. Her honesty about her personal struggles has earned her respect from many supporters.
Previously, Rabiya shared that she was diagnosed with depression with anxious distress and described how everyday life felt like a battle while she was on medication and temporarily stepping away from the spotlight. She said leaving the country for several months helped her avoid triggers and gave her time to focus on survival and healing. Witnessing the grief of Kuya Kim Atienza and his family after Emman’s passing also motivated her to keep fighting for her own life and for her mother. She has since called for more kindness online and continues promoting mental health awareness.
Meanwhile, Rabiya opened up about feeling hurt by harsh comments from some fellow Ilonggos during a visit to Iloilo. She said the negativity took a toll on her mental health, especially when personal attacks were made about her appearance. The issue started when she simply asked for food recommendations but received criticism instead. Despite this, many locals defended her and showed support for the former beauty queen.
