Asked how she is dealing with her insomnia, Andrea relayed, “Insomnia I believe nagsimula siya kasi maaga po ako nagtrabago so maaga po na-ano 'yung body clock ko and kasi lagi po akong binabangungot. Lagi akong nagkaka-sleep paralysis. So nagkaroon ako ng fear na matulog kasi may mga tao na nagkaka-heart attack sa pagtulog nila. Hindi na sila nagigising. Ang ginagawa ko po lagi akong nagpre-pray," she stated.

"Sa work ko po, lagi po akong surrounded by tons of people and never po akong naging mag-isa. For the first time sa 18 years ko po ito lang talaga na nagkaroon ako ng quiet time alone for myself. Kahit takot ako meron pa rin akong kaunting nakikita na happiness and peace," she relayed.
