The thing is you're not taking a fucking bath with ice in it, you're literally putting your life at risk because some fucking cockhead think he's an "professional worker", and gives dogshit advice to some poor fucker with autism and feels good about it afterwards.
And T3ars, if you got sad just from a message that was posted on this topic you might aswell kill yourself, because you are one of the most pathetic human beings i've encountered.
Bad day?
Oh hold on, found the shirt for me to wear just for you!
No seriously, I think you're causing more of a scene than I did. I bet you're this upset only because someone broke up with you or you just had a really
really really really bad day. Or maybe what you're saying is or has happened to you personally within the past few days?
So I ask again, bad day?
Go on, insult me. Not like you have anything better to do anyways.
T3ars, just ignore him, he's just being a depressed fuck that pretends he's everyone's boss.

Well from what I am aware, shock as a medical term usually is something from the result of loss of blood.
Cold shock response is interesting, I've experienced it quite a few times from taking a full cold shower, or jumping in really cold water, it makes you hyperventilate. Though like the article says, it's not usually fatal in itself, it's usually due to an underlying heart condition or drowning. People in places like Finland do Ice-water as a sport, so it's obviously not that dangerous. I actually believe that it's good for your health, and it's feels sorta good to take a cold shower and experience the big physiological response from your body from the cold shock. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_bath
i don't know how dangerous it is, exactly. The article speaks of people falling in water, so i don't even know if it applies to putting your head into a bucket.
i looked a bit into the word shock, and turns out that its used for a variety of medical conditions, but i don't think its used in the context of blood loss.
But there's lots of other stuff, like the septic shock, insulin shock, and the spinal shock.
And then there's the shock that T3ars got after reading lifeisonlydark's mean posts :v
As far as I'm aware, I've experienced Cold Shock Response about 3 times in my life, twice in the past year. It's not dangerous, and I find the feeling of the cold air or water, or just ice in general, relaxing. I play, act, and work better in colder conditions. Not something I would want to work in a field where it's 100% cold all the friggin time. I just happen to be one of those people who are completely different and can't stand the heat.
My experiences with Cold Shock Response had no blood loss at all. Sure, it might seem dangerous, but after a while and with fair conditioning, you can adjust to something fairly quickly. It's kinda like surviving in a wasteland, where you have no internet, no contacts, and only chance of survival is scarce food and water. You learn to adapt to it quickly because you have to survive right?
I'unno, AMA on Cold Shock Response I guess.
