Olympiad: thinking traps and what helps first ★★★, sentence 3
When something hard happens, help usually comes in an order: first be safe and get calm (slow breathing, a drink of water, a grown-up nearby), then tell someone you trust what happened, then put right what can be put right, then take small steps back to normal life, and over time look back at what you learned.
Who acts: something, help, you · What happens: happen, come, be, get, grow up, tell · To what, where: order, someone, right, small steps · Speech: someone speaks here
