After reading the manual, Chen's father finally realized his shortcomings. He went to the lounge, while Chen Yuan came to the office to consult with Yuan Jia.

Chen Yuan is eighteen years old this year and is in a repeat class. Studying has become the only thing in his life.

He gets up at 5:30 every morning, turns on the small lamp on the bed and memorizes vocabulary words. At 6:20, the classroom door opens, and he goes to the classroom to read early. When school is over at noon, if the teacher does not delay the class, he will be the first to rush out.

In the classroom, go to the canteen to get some leftovers. After ten minutes, you go back to the classroom to read. If you delay class for a while, you can go to the canteen to get some leftovers after half an hour of self-study in the classroom. You don’t dare to waste more than ten minutes of queuing time.

The intensive study schedule is so full that he is even a little numb. Sometimes he will be in a daze and ask himself what kind of life he wants.

He couldn't figure it out.

It seems that the meaning of my life is to get into a good university.

It would be even more painful if it happened on the eve of an exam. Because of the onset of exam syndrome, he could hardly sleep all night. He was worried that he would not do well in the exam tomorrow, or he felt that he had not reviewed a certain knowledge point in place, so he had to get up in the middle of the night to read with a small flashlight.

.

He didn't want to fail in the exam, but he performed abnormally every time, which made him extremely painful.

"Sit here. You can put down your schoolbag. What's in it? It looks so heavy."

Yuan Jia easily stood up and welcomed Chen Yuan in, and helped him unload the schoolbag from his shoulders. He felt heavy when he held it in his hand, as if he was under real pressure.

"They are some books and materials... that I have used before... I will bring them with me when I go home on leave this time, and take them to school in the afternoon..."

Chen Yuan explained that his schoolbag was no longer there, and his rickety body that had been pressed down had straightened up a bit.

"Your shoes are very cool. Do you usually play ball?"

"I used to fight, but now I don't have time."

"Don't you even have time to sleep? You have heavy dark circles under your eyes."

Chen Yuan subconsciously touched his face and said nothing.

After chatting for a while, Chen Yuan seemed a little impatient. He was eager to solve his exam syndrome. Such small talk was a waste of his precious study time.

"Teacher Yuan, is there any way you can help me not be nervous during the exam? I've read some psychological suggestions on the Internet, but they don't seem to work, so I want to ask you for advice."

Looking at Chen Yuan's eager eyes, Yuan Jia shook his head and said with a smile: "I have tried all the methods you mentioned, but they are useless. Instead, they make me more nervous and even interrupt my original train of thought."

Chen Yuan caught the key information in the words, raised his head in surprise, and looked into Yuan Jia's eyes: "Teacher Yuan was also nervous in exams before?"

"Does it look like it to you?"

"It's not like..."

Chen Yuan looked at Yuan Jia carefully. He seemed to be a very confident and calm person. How could he be nervous about the exam?

"Do you feel that I am very confident now, as if nothing can scare me?" Yuan Jia asked.

Chen Yuan nodded.

"I used to suffer from exam syndrome just like you."

After hearing Yuan Jia's words, Chen Yuan looked up at him again and felt that Yuan Jia's temperament had undergone earth-shaking changes. His original confidence was gone, and his eyes revealed deep anxiety, as if they were a mirror. From this mirror,

, Chen Yuan saw himself.

"Teacher Yuan, you..."

The roles seemed to have been reversed, with Chen Yuan as the psychological counselor and Yuan Jia as the examinee. He slowly told about his past experiences.

Yuan Jia told him about his expectations before the exam, his emphasis on the exam results, his uncontrollable nervousness during the exam, the confusion of his teachers, classmates, and parents...

Similar experiences were like replicas, and their channels instantly connected. At this moment, Yuan Jia and he reached empathy.

Chen Yuan felt as if he had found a soulmate!

Chen Yuan no longer doubted Yuan Jia. He asked incredulously: "How did Teacher Yuan come out at that time?"

Yuan Jia regained his confident smile and said, "When you look at the past based on the future, you will naturally stop being nervous."

Chen Yuan shook his head, saying he didn't quite understand.

Yuan Jia said: "You can be as confident as me in your future."

Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, and inexplicably began to trust Yuan Jia.

"Close your eyes, soothe your body, listen to my words, imagine your own picture, the more detailed the better, and start to relax..."

After listening to Yuan Jia's words, Chen Yuan closed his eyes.

"Now you are in the college entrance examination examination room. You are very nervous because this examination is related to your future..."

Chen Yuan quickly entered the imaginary scene, because he had imagined this scene countless times.

"It's no surprise that you failed the exam. You originally performed normally and achieved at least one grade, but you just managed to get two grades..."

Chen Yuan imagined the scene, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, and his brows were frowning tightly while leaning on the chair.

"On the first day of school, you came to this university. It was different from what you expected. The library here is brand new and beautiful. The faces of your classmates are also relaxed and happy. There is also a pretty girl who greets you warmly and says welcome.

Enrollment..."

"It may not be as good as Zhejiang University, but it's not as bad as you imagined. You study freely, follow your own heart, and fall in love with that pretty girl. You find that you deeply like this kind of life with her...

"

"You held her hand and walked beside the track and field. A ball rolled to your feet. You smiled and threw the ball back to the classmates on the field. You recalled the college entrance examination, and then turned to her and said that she was very lucky.

Meet you."

"She asked: What would happen to us if life took a turn? You smiled and didn't say anything, but held her hand tightly. It's fine now."

"After graduation, you get married and live a sweet life. Your career is on the right track. Everything is developing in a good direction."

"Please firmly believe that this is your future."

From the beginning of the conversation with Chen Yuan, Yuan Jia conveyed a message to his subconscious: I have exam syndrome just like you, I have overcome it, and I am confident and calm about my future.

In the state of empathy between the two, Chen Yuan naturally became more confident, thinking that if Yuan Jia can do it, so can I.

Listening to Yuan Jia's words, he naturally imagined his own future scene, and even filled in more details in his mind.

Yuan Jia did not disturb him and let him think quietly, which was also a kind of relaxation.

A large part of the factor that causes exam syndrome is that patients always unconsciously think about the consequences of failing in exams, and they are all negative, which invisibly brings a lot of pressure.

After a while, Chen Yuan opened his eyes. He really felt like he had experienced a 'different life after failing in the exam'.

"How do you feel now?"

"Well... not bad..."

Chen Yuan didn't know which girl he was thinking of, and his eyes were a little wandering.

"Then if based on this future, you are asked to take the college entrance examination again, what do you think?"

"It seems like it's no big deal..."

Chen Yuan said, he was a little surprised that he would say such rebellious words.

"Have you ever thought about what kind of future you want?"

"have no idea……"

"If you don't know, just use the elimination method. Is it like now that all the time is taken up by studying every day? In high school, in order to get into a better university, in college, in order to get a better job?"

"no."

"Want to have a love affair?"

"think……"

"Want to have a good game of golf?"

"think……"

"Then what does this have to do with whether you do well or poorly in the exam? The college entrance examination is just a test, and temporary gains and losses can't mean anything. Maybe a different future will make you happier?"

Yuan Jia stood up and opened the curtains. The sun shone in. The office was bright and warm, and his face was bathed in a layer of luster.

"When you are nervous, just ask yourself, is this exam really that important?"

Chen Yuan suddenly realized that he was fantasizing about the life he wanted. He had always pursued what his parents asked him to pursue, without really thinking about his own heart.

The troubles I have been struggling with are actually no big deal.
