I have no clue what a flight or fight response is

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?

You’re faced with a threat to your life. You either choose fight (wherein you confront the threat and attempt to eradicate/eliminate it) or flight (wherein you run away/defuse the threat)

It exists because your innate instinct is to protect your life. You assess the threat and determine whether or not you should fight it or “fly” away.
