Every once in a while, Wikipedia stress levels go off the charts. Unfortunately, that can sometimes cause undesirable effects, such as cardiac arrest, or ulcer, or even spontaneous combustion. This is why it is important for all users to occasionally, calm down, sit back, relax, and breathe.
Why should you breathe?
[edit]Sitting back and breathing is important if you match any of the following criteria:
- Hospitalization due to Wikistress
- Severe emotional trauma due to Wikistress
- More severe emotional trauma involving hospitalization, or psychiatric treatment due to Wikistress.
- Build ups of anger causing temporary "blackouts" during editing, in which you "wake up" with 3 WP:PA warnings.
- You suffer a heart attack or cardiac arrest during, or related to Wikipedia editing and Wikistress.
- You find that you are on a respirator, due to Wikistress.
- You grow a tumor, get an aneurysm, or a related health problem from Wikistress.
- You find yourself turning to drugs or alcohol to cope with Wikistress.
- You start failing all your classes, and barely go to school to spend time editing the Wiki.
- You neglect work, bills, and real life completely to edit the Wiki.
- And anything else that you think is bad. Use your judgment (yes, you do have judgment)
Breathing can also be used in less major situations, such as:
- Either during, or after a serious conflict with another editor or editors.
- During a stressful vandalism streak.
- After a personal attack was made against you.
- After you have not succeeded in a goal, such as a RfA, GA, or FA.
- Other stressful situations that you may come across.
How do I breathe?
[edit]Breathing is important, and sometimes you might forget how to do it because you are not smart. Aksept that you are dumb you should speak to your docter see slide below
What if breathing didn't work?
[edit]Then you've got a more serious problem on your hands. Check out these solutions. Ideas:
- Take a drink of Mountain Dew it'll help.
- Go eat some comfort food that will help.
- Run around in circles and yell help.
- Go away from the computer and come back later.
- Go drink battery acid and end it all.
- If none of these work than just accept death.
- If death does not work call up Peter Griffin.
