[Words to read on an anxious night - For you whose heart was shaken by the earthquake]

Big shaking and news of earthquakes flowing here and there.

Just thinking, "I might come again."

My heart is tight.

Breathing becomes shallow.

I get restless.

It's all because you're crazy.

It's a natural reaction as a human being.

When an uneasy event occurs, our brain

Think, "It might happen next time."

Trying to protect the body.

So it's natural to be scared.

Rather, being scared is proof that you're trying to protect.

But what I need at night when I feel scared,

It's not about being strong,

Calm yourself down.

Take a deep breath slowly.

Turn the lights down a little bit.

Take a sip of a warm drink,

Round the back softly,

Just be in a safe position,

The body recovers little by little.

And I want you to remember that

"You are not alone."

If someone who is now spending an equally anxious night

There are many.

There are people who need words to support each other.

Anxiety is not a weakness, it is "proof of trying to live."

The moment an earthquake occurs, the back of my chest becomes tight.

Even if you know it's okay, your body reacts on its own.

It's not that you're a coward,

It's just an instinct to protect yourself.

Rather, that's just living properly.

So you don't have to blame yourself for getting scared.

Even with anxiety, I'm here today. That alone is admirable.

"I want to talk to someone" is not a spoil

After shaking,

Is there anyone...

"I'm worried about being alone like this..."

Thinking so is insanely normal.

Humans are not made on the premise of being able to endure everything alone.

I want to be relieved and open my smartphone,

Even looking at SNS,

Looking for someone's voice,

Everything is natural and natural.

You are not weak,

Humans are just such creatures.

With one deep breath, the world slows down a little.

When you are anxious, the speed of your mind and the speed of your body do not match.

So I get restless.

At such times

It only takes "10 seconds."

Slow down.

Exhale slowly.

In just 10 seconds,

Your body will tell you that it's okay.

I can't stop earthquakes, aftershocks, and news,

You can only control your breathing.

That just makes it a little easier.

I'm still alive today. There's no better answer than that

Even on anxious nights,

Even at night when I was shaking and almost crying,

Even if you can't sleep, even if you can't calm down.

I lived today.

That's already a "win."

Even if no one compliments me,

You can acknowledge yourself first.

I was scared, but I did my best.

"I'm still alive today."

That's more than enough.
