Lesson Overview

17.41 – When You Need a Place to Cry or Breathe: Emotional overload can happen anytime, and it deserves safe space, not shame. Identify quiet areas like the counseling office, nurse’s room, or even a bathroom stall where you can pause without judgment. Let a staff member know you may need short breaks when overwhelmed. Crying doesn’t make you weak—it’s your body’s natural reset system. After tears, focus on grounding: deep breathing, water, or light movement. When you allow emotions safely, they pass faster. Having permission to pause teaches emotional intelligence, not avoidance. Over time, your ability to regulate in private moments improves your resilience in public ones. Safe expression leads to stronger control later.
