It was due to the combination of high stress levels and anxiety my paper that I was attempting to write had given me. the stress was really impacted me so hard because me being only a child I never really had to endure any stress so the stress was all new to me. I wanted to ask my mom to really help me because the stress didn 't feel good at all but it was no way I could have a dialogue with my parents at all given that I grew up in a authoritarian home so that means whatever they said was the way things were going to go no matter what. so my back was basically against the wall so only thing I could do is be highly submissive to my parents and just do what they say and try to fix my paper. Since I was, calm spirited I was able to think and come up with the answers that my mom was really looking for out of me. after I got it right I was overjoyed and it made me feel great that I actually got it right at such a young age.
