"This is when the shock begins."
Zytowski indicated it is not the
shock which is dangerous but how
it is handled.
"Those who cannot admit to
themselves that they are not still
the star they were in high school

he said. "They suddenly develop

their fear that they cannot com

"Their grades fall, and at the
