Would you have any doubts in performing CPR?

i have taken the course but it's quite long ago, maybe more than 6 years already. i can perform cpr on a dummy but like someone said, my first time in a real life situation, i'd definitely be scared and nervous. not only that, i'd have to look into other aspects of the injury too like maybe internal bleeding or bruises or head injuries which i'm not good at. i don't think giving me proper equipments would make me more willing or give me morale as it's more of an internal feeling for me rather than materials and all. i definitely wouldn't be thinking of diseases for sure as i'd be too nervous that i might actually do something wrong and make the situation even worse.

I have not taken a course but assuming that I had, I am not sure how I would act if someone needed me to help them, I would either go into automatic and just do it or I would stand there and think can I, should I? But I definately think a factor that would stop me helping would be protective equipment, if I didnt have any I would be very reluctant to help, just in case.

talking about doing it may give me a bit of anxiety and self doubt - but if in an emergency situation I think something takes over and you just do what has to be done - you do not think about it so much as just do it, that is what is great about rote or routine learning, that habit can take over where your emotions may have otherwise interfered.

There is always a first time. If I'm performing it for the first time, of course I have fears of what might happen. Protective equipments doesn't guarantee that a person performing cpr is exempted from doubts and fears!
