Actually I think this would make more sense if you clarified whether "shock" is being used to refer to the medical condition, psychological, emotion, and the cause of it. Because I can think of a lot of ways where that varies (ex if you give some dude something he's allergic to and then **** him while he's dying, that's a lot worse than most other things)

Mistake you're making - overlooking the fact that we might not want to be saved.
