Chapter 6 The Experience of Examination Syndrome (2)
After returning home, her mother had prepared a sumptuous meal. Yuanjia, who should have returned with confidence like a victorious general, now seemed like a deserter who had fallen into the dust.
After he got home, he locked himself in his room and frantically searched for materials on the questions he had done.
I have done this question before, it is not difficult, and Lao Chen also talked about this question emphatically... Now my thinking is extremely clear, but why did I feel confused when I just took the exam?
There was a knock on the door: "Jia, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? You've come out to eat."
After a while, Yuan Jia put down the materials in his hands, opened the door and walked out.
Yang Hemei was shocked when she saw his expression: "Why are your lips so white? Are you sick?"
As he spoke, he touched Yuan Jia's forehead with his palm, looking worried.
"I'm fine..."
Yuan Jia blocked his mother's hand, sat on the dining table, and ate the rice without saying a word. They were all his favorite dishes, but now they tasted like chewing wax.
"How was today's exam? It shouldn't be difficult, right?" Yang Hemei asked tentatively.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Jia's mood suddenly exploded, "I failed the test, don't ask anymore."
"Why did you fail the exam?"
Yuan Jia couldn't say anything, saying that he was nervous? He was not a primary school student anymore. This reason was really difficult for him to say.
"I'm full and I'm going back to read."
Yuan Jia put down his job and locked himself in the room again.
Because he failed the math test, Yuan Jia had been struggling with this matter. He suffered from severe insomnia that night and did not fall asleep until four o'clock in the morning. After less than three hours of rest, he had to get up again to deal with the second day.
The comprehensive science exam this morning.
Thinking of yesterday's failure, Yuan Jia paid more and more attention to the Science and Comprehensive Science Examination, thinking about gaining more points and not failing this time.
Nervous emotions are like seeds, spreading crazily...
Yuanjia once again had the same symptoms as yesterday, and his performance in the remaining subjects was abnormal...
It was precisely because of this failure in the monthly exam that Yuan Jia suffered from the most undesirable mental illness among students - exam syndrome.
After suffering from exam syndrome, Yuan Jia couldn't control her nervousness during major exams. It was difficult to fall asleep normally that night. She was suffering until she entered the exam room and got the test paper. She was confused and couldn't understand the questions clearly.
I can’t even do the dominant questions, and my mind goes blank…
As a result, the way his classmates and teachers looked at him changed. Yuan Jia seemed to be able to read a lot of things from their eyes.
There is sympathy, confusion, regret, and even gloating...
Many times Yuan Jia can regulate his emotions on his own, but whenever the big exam comes, he feels depressed, weak and exhausted, and he doesn't want to take the exam again...
"Why are you so nervous? Can't you just be normal?"
"There's nothing to be nervous about. It's just an exam."
"Oh my god, you're actually nervous?"
…
【do not worry】
Almost everyone said these four words to Yuan Jia. They didn't understand the pain Yuan Jia suffered from exam syndrome, and thought it would be fine if he simply didn't get nervous.
But this is not something Yuan Jia can control at all. He also wants to stop being nervous, but this nervous emotion is like a devil that cannot be driven away!
This feeling is like throwing you into a cage with a hungry tiger, and then he is outside the cage, telling you with a smile: It's just a big cat, don't be nervous.
Yuan Jia feels that no one understands his pain. They believe that exam syndrome is not a disease, but Yuan Jia's own cowardice. Only sneezing, fever, and diarrhea are diseases, and only such diseases can affect exam results.
The pain that no one understood caused Yuan Jia to gradually become taciturn from a confident and cheerful person, and his grades plummeted.
How could it...become like this...
The me who could calmly deal with the exam...has become a luxury...
…
The picture was shattered like it was caught in a storm.
Yuan Jia opened his eyes suddenly, a ray of sunlight fell on his brown eyes, his pupils dilated slightly, and he took a few breaths.
What he saw was a familiar room. He was lying on his bed, wearing big pants. It was already 6:50 in the morning and he had a splitting headache...
The system sounds continuously
[End of exam syndrome simulation experience]
[Course score 90 points]
[Message from the course: You have fully experienced the pain of patients. The scary thing is not the exam, but the dilemma of falling into self-anxiety and endless loop but unable to get out]
[We are helping you to eliminate negative emotions after the experience...]
[Get points bonus +90]
[Negative emotions are eliminated]
Only then did Yuan Jia's dizzy feeling disappear, replaced by clarity.
This experience of the Sims was like a dream. The dream was blurry and indistinguishable, but Yuan Jia could still clearly recall the painful and helpless feeling he felt after suffering from exam syndrome.
What devours the soul the most is helplessness.
No one understands it, it seems like I am lost in the desert.
But if you experience it now, it will be like someone who has been there before, and that emotion will no longer cause any trouble to Yuan Jia.
Only after you have experienced it yourself can you understand the other person's pain and empathize with the other person.
Yuan Jia got up from the bed, opened the window, held the window edge with his hands, took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly, feeling happy.
Although I attended classes all night last night, I didn’t feel sleepy when I woke up, but felt full of energy. This is probably the result of the systematic elimination of negative emotions.
If he encounters patients with exam syndrome in the future, Yuanjia already has a way to help them.
It's like when you are stuck in that feeling, it's difficult to get out on your own no matter what, but as long as you skip that stage and look back at your past self, whether it's the exams at that time or the dreams at that time
No matter what, I think it is just a necessary experience in life.
As long as you can understand it clearly, you will not be entangled in temporary gains and losses, you will no longer be nervous, and your anxiety will naturally disappear.
To put it simply, Yuanjia's exam syndrome in high school was solved with the help of the "future" Yuanjia. It's like asking you in high school to take an elementary school exam now. Will you be nervous and anxious? No.
But it is impossible for patients to meet their ‘future self’ to help solve exam syndrome, but Yuanjia can become that ‘future self’ in the eyes of patients.
An ordinary psychiatrist without similar experience would not be able to empathize with patients.
You don’t even understand me, what do you want me to do to believe that you can help me?
Because Yuanjia also suffered from exam syndrome, he was able to empathize with the patient, feel the same way, and tell him: I was just like you at the time, but I have come out of it now. In fact, looking back on the past, it was really not a big deal.
There is no need to say anything more. Yuanjia herself is a role model in the eyes of patients and a source of confidence for them.
Oh! It turns out that I am not alone! It turns out that this disease can be overcome! I can be as confident as him in the future!
Physiological diseases can be treated with drugs and surgery, but psychological diseases can only be treated by the patients themselves. Psychological counseling is not like surgery. Wherever there is a disease, you can cut it off.
The existence of psychiatrists is only to help patients build confidence, help him find out the cause of the disease, and give him enough confidence, so that he can get out of it on his own, and only on his own.
Yuanjia opened the properties panel.
[Available points: 200]
[Professional attributes]: (50 for ordinary people)
Love: 90/100 (excellent)
Respect:90/100(Excellent)
Acceptance: 90/100 (Excellent)
[Professional skills]: (20 for ordinary people)
Observations:35/100
Listen:42/100
Empathy:28/100
Troubleshooting:40/100
Other attributes have not changed, but the empathy ability has changed from 25 to 28, an increase of 3 points; the worry-solving ability has increased from 35 to 40, an increase of 5 points.
Yuan Jia shook his head and smiled bitterly. It is really difficult to improve this ability of empathy. I was a little scared when I thought about last night's class, but I only added 3 points.
It's already seven o'clock in the morning, a new day has begun, and today I have to put up the gold-lettered signboard.
