How do i add a cooldown to this?

I watched a tutorial on how to make a medkit, and it worked but there is no cooldown, so you can just spam it.
I’ve tried to make one with TouchInterest but i can’t put one in a Tool or Part.

(if the image doesn’t load here’s the script)

local tool = script.Parent

tool.Activated:Connect(function()
local humanoid = tool.Parent:FindFirstChild(“Humanoid”)
humanoid.Health = humanoid.Health + 35

end)

Format you code using ```
In this case you would want to use a debounce

local tool = script.Parent
local CoolingDown = false  -- The debounce variable

tool.Activated:Connect(function()
    If not CoolingDown then
        CoolingDown = true
        local humanoid = tool.Parent:FindFirstChild(“Humanoid”)
        humanoid.Health = humanoid.Health + 35
        wait(3)  -- After 3 seconds cooldown is finished
        CoolingDown = false
    end
end)

local tool = script.Parent

local cooldowndeb = false

tool.Activated:Connect(function()
	if cooldowndeb then return end
	cooldowndeb = true
	local humanoid = tool.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
	humanoid.Health += 35
	wait(1) --Or how long you want
	cooldowndeb = false
end)

Basically how @amadeupworld2 did it but I just used guard clauses and simpler operation, such as using humanoid.Health += 35 instead of humanoid.Health = humanoid.Health + 35 statements to make it look simpler
