Last July 08, the lifeless body of Julia was found by a house helper inside their house in Quezon City, in an apparent suicide.

According to the post of Shamaine on Facebook, “Yesterday we had our first psychological autopsy session with a psychiatrist. And we learned that Julia had both high IQ and EQ. That's why she was able to hide what she was going through for three years.”

She even revealed that Julia was able to save three of her friends from committing suicide.

“That's why the illness is called an "invisible war." She suffered so much but being young, she didn't want to be perceived as "broken" and she thought she could cope on her own. She saved three of her friends from taking their lives but she couldn't save herself.”

Shamaine ended her post by encouraging everybody to seek help, who like Julia is suffering from the same condition.

“I am posting this to encourage her friends, specially the teenagers, please ask for help. Ask for help from your parents! We can not read your minds. But know that as parents we will do everything in our capacity to help and we won't love you less. It is not just teenage angst!”
