What If You Felt Every Emotion 10x Stronger?

What if you felt every emotion 10x stronger? Every joke would make you cry with laughter. Every song would hit like a movie ending. And every fear… would freeze you solid. Mateo feels everything ten times harder, and his body reacts ten times harder too. A crush saying hi sends his heart rate to 140. A horror trailer means a week with the lights on. So he starts avoiding everything big, until a storm stops a Ferris wheel 40 meters up, and the little girl in the next cabin starts opening her door. ❤️ First, test yourself: count your pulse for 15 seconds, then breathe in for 4 and out for 6 for one minute, and count again.

Panic feels terrifying, but it passes. If panic or strong emotions happen to you often, talking to a doctor or someone you trust can really help.
