Fight vs. Flight

A great article on the meanings of the Fight vs. Flight mentality to a traceur by APK member Ronster82 (component/option,com_comprofiler/task,userProfile/user,7957/Itemid,1/)

Turning

the corner casually walking home from school you accidentally bump into

a big guy with a short temper. This guy is angry with you, and you can

see right then and there that he wants to fight you. In any potentially

dangerous situation your body will automatically receive impulses from

the brain, and release epinephrine. (Not to go into detail.) In other words you get

that adrenaline pumping through your blood. What follows this physical

phenomenon is an instant mode, your body reacts fight or flight .
