White-knuckling nights are only part of the battle for people diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In the Philippines, healing is often hindered by more than the condition itself.

Read more about how recovery becomes an even more daunting path for patients as medication stocks run low, treatment costs increase, structural stigma persists, and access to mental health care remains out of reach for many.

Initially produced as a final requirement for their macroeconomic indicators course, the feature story written by Frenchshield Shayne Delovieres, an incoming senior journalism student, was published in Philstar.com on June 6.

The demand for Ozempic, a drug prescribed for the management of diabetes, has been surging in recent years due to off-label use, like weight loss. That rise in demand had a painful consequence: soaring prices and shrinking stocks, especially for patients who are in dire need of the injections.

Read more about it in this feature story by Trisha Mae Palanas and Alliah Lyn Reyes, incoming senior journalism students, that was published in the Manila Bulletin's Business Section last June 14. The story was first submitted as a requirement for their macroeconomic indicators course.
