There is about more than a month before the annual college entrance examination. Recently, a senior high school student dialed 120. "I'm going to jump off the building now. I'm in my school." The dispatcher quickly acquired the address and dispatched a nearby ambulance. Meanwhile, the dispatcher kept trying to appease the girl's emotions. The girl said that she was simply sad and while walking in the corridor alone, she just wanted to jump off the building. She refused to communicate further. After hanging up the phone, the dispatcher immediately called the 110 command center to inform the police of the above situation and requested to cooperate. At the same time, another dispatcher inquired about the contact number of the middle school through the map APP. After several calls, the dispatcher contacted the person in charge of the school and the girl's head teacher, and also learned that the girl was at the third grade teaching building. Ten minutes later, the ambulance arrived at the school and reported that the girl had come down from the window and calmed down after being persuaded by the teacher. She was a third grade student and developed extreme behavior due to bad mood caused by study pressures.

Here are some tips from 120. When the college entrance examination is approaching, senior three students enter a period of emotional explosion. They may seem normal outside, but there may be a subtle psychological situation. Parents and teachers should pay more attention to the psychological changes of candidates. Students should also make timely psychological adjustments, relieve stress, understand and face healthy competition. In addition, they should maintain adequate sleep, reasonable diet, and daily exercise. Students should handle the relationship with parents and classmates well, find a healthy relaxation method that suits you, such as painting, music, writing, exercise, etc., and seek intervention from a psychiatrist if necessary.
