ok but for real have you seen a person in shock before

because adrenaline can do weird stuff to a human.

stuff adrenaline makes people do:

-actually feel the pain that someone else is experiencing

-be all numb, void of emotion

-be shocked into calming down, and somehow manage to stay calm and take charge of the situation

-panicpanicpanic

-(person) freezes, sort of like a catatonic state

-get really positive(i feel like this is just a façade, but whatever helps you cope, really)

REAL TALK THOUGH: if you ever see anyone in shock, try to calm them down. talk to them, tell them that you are with them, that they’re going to be okay, hold their hand if it helps them(ASK FIRST OKAY), make sure that their body temperature is okay, etc.

feel free to add on, this might come in handy and help someone:D

doing math homework be like:

ahhhhhhh trigono-mecry ahhhhhhh why is math so harddddddd *starts sobbing and rolls around the floor of bedroom* trigonometry is a sin ahhhhhhhhhhhh

it’s difficult, but at some point, we’re all gonna have to learn that in order to succeed, we gotta keep trying. so stop being angry at yourself failing at new things, because failing is normal. rome wasn’t built in a day, y’all.

FRIENDLY REMINDER(S) :)

it’s okay to fail. it’s okay to not succeed on your first try. it’s okay to not be able to live up to society’s unrealistic expectations of you. it’s okay to have emotions. it’s okay to be human.

BUT

it’s NOT okay to make people feel bad about failing. it’s NOT okay to set unrealistic expectations on people and get angry at them when they fail to meet these expectations. it’s NOT okay to make people feel bad about emotions.
