Looking back at that defining chapter during a recent guest appearance on the video podcast Your Honor, hosted by his sister Chariz Solomon and co-host Mikoy Morales, the multi-talented artist bared the deep emotional weight of his journey.
In a report by Philstar, Fifth shared how baring his soul under the relentless glare of the public eye tested every fiber of his being.
Reflecting on the overwhelming anxiety that gripped him during his stint as a housemate, Fifth explained that his conservative educational upbringing amplified his fears about how the outside world would receive his truth.

Isolated from reality and uncertain of public sentiment, the pressure was immense. Describing that harrowing emotional state in his exact words, Fifth recalled: “Noong umamin ako, parang ano siya, nakakatakot din siya.”
The psychological toll was so profound that Fifth revealed he actively avoided watching the playback of his monumental coming-out moment for a remarkably long time.
Admitting that the emotional barrier took years to break down, he shared: “Actually after two years ko pa siya napanood, ’yung video (sa 'PBB'). Hindi ko siya kaya talaga.”
He added context to his hesitation, noting: “Lumaki kami sa Born Again school, so parang it was hard for me to come out there. Tapos hindi ko alam anong nangyayari sa labas ng Big Brother house, mga gano’n. Baka mamaya big deal na siya sa labas.”
Beyond the personal revelations, Fifth noted that the overall reality television experience was a complex mixture of lighthearted camaraderie and severe psychological pressure.

Navigating isolation while grappling with deep personal truths pushed his mental endurance to the limit, reminding him that life inside the famous house was far from a walk in the park.
Yet, looking at where life has taken him today, Fifth looks back with profound acceptance and pride.
He recognizes that facing his deepest fears head-on ultimately unlocked doors he never imagined possible, turning a moment of raw terror into a triumphant milestone of personal liberation and growth.
Fifth Solomon has carved a distinct niche in Philippine showbiz as a talented actor and director behind notable films like Single Bells and My Sassy Girl. Best known for his past stint on Pinoy Big Brother, he is also widely recognized for his close friendship with superstar vlogger Alex Gonzaga.
Recently, Fifth uploaded a heartfelt social media post celebrating the major blessings unfolding in close friend Alex Gonzaga's life. The snapshot featured the pair inside her newly built home while Alex cradled her baby bump. The director used his caption to express deep gratitude for answered prayers and significant life milestones. The actress-vlogger responded warmly to the touching post within the comments section.
Meanwhile last year, Fifth posted a hospital update disclosing that severe panic attacks landed him in the emergency room. Medical professionals diagnosed the filmmaker with bipolar disorder, adding to existing battles with depression, anxiety, and borderline personality disorder. He opened up about enduring intense online harassment that left him feeling deeply dehumanized by critics. The director concluded his message with a vow of self-resilience, committing to continue his healing journey despite heavy odds.
