Fifth Solomon taken to hospital after mental breakdown caused by online bullying
Fifth Solomon (pic) was taken to an emergency room after he suffered a mental breakdown, which he said was caused by online bullying.
The Filipino actor-director gave a health update through his Facebook on Monday, June 16, saying, 'I'm okay now. I'm in the ER with my sister Balitang Inaaaaa!' referring to comedian Chariz Solomon.
He said he had 'a mental breakdown because [of] the online bullying. Thanks for all the people who reached out.'
He added that he is set to release a statement although he did not immediately expound on the matter.
In a prior post, Solomon addressed the bashing he had been receiving online, enumerating the most common remarks thrown at him.
'Retokada. Flop. Baliw (crazy). Mental hospital. DDS (Diehard Duterte Supporter). Incerun. Too fem — Call me names. Laugh all you want. I've heard worse. Survived worse,' he said.
'I grew up with no blueprint, no guidance, no safety net. So I taught myself how to fight, how to bite back. The world isn't kind. I stopped trying to be,' he added.
Solomon then reflected on how some people 'play clean' but 'enjoy watching others fall.'
'But me? You can't bring me down. Only the people I love have that power. And even then, I'll still get up,' he said.
'I know who I am. I know what I'm worth. No one gets to rewrite that,' he added.
Solomon appears to have been discharged from the hospital as he showed himself walking in an outdoor area.
Solomon rose to fame in 2014 after he joined the reality show Pinoy Big Brother . – Philippine Daily Inquirer/Asia News Network

According to China Press , Sham recently went on a trip to Dunhuang, China, and the occasion was nothing short of lavish. In a social media post, the former TVB star revealed that she stayed at a three-storey villa costing around HK$12,000 (RM6,448) per night. The accommodation featured a private courtyard and swimming pool, all set against a scenic desert backdrop. 'The interior feels like you're walking into a gallery, with artworks displayed on the walls … The view of the desert from the rooftop is also beautiful,' she said in a video. To commemorate the trip, Sham even hired a professional photographer to capture glamorous shots of her in the desert, which she later shared on Instagram.
