I hear this all the time, someone’s freezing and they need to stay awake to stay alive, or they’re overdosing and need to be woken up or kept awake so they don’t die. I don’t understand that though, wouldn’t that put extra stress on the body and actually kill you?
In: Biology
When someone goes into a state of unconsciousness, a number of the body’s functions will automatically begin to slow such as heart rate, respiration, and blood pressure. It also helps track if there are any impairments occurring within the brain like the ability to form coherent sentences or track their thought.
That’s my understanding, anyway.
