I have no clue what a flight or fight response is

202 views

Like is it a reaction? Do you want to start fighting when it happens? When does it usually happen? Why is there a “flight” in there? Where are we going?

When you’re confronted by danger you have three responses run, fight, or do nothing. When you’re in a dangerous situation, say, confronted by a bully, there will be a split second decision where you choose to fight or flee, it’s closer to an automatic response than one you would consider and weigh the pros and cons of before you commit.

It’s why you might jump in your car and leave if you’re having an argument with your partner, or why you might run into a burning building to save your dog.
