Introduction

Understanding Fight, Flight, Freeze

  • Core Concept: Anxiety is a normal, biological survival mechanism rather than a disorder or a sign of weakness.
  • The Three Responses:
    • Fight: The body prepares to confront a perceived threat.
    • Flight: The body prepares to run away from a perceived threat.
    • Freeze: The body becomes still, often to avoid detection or because it feels overwhelmed.
  • Mechanism: These responses are triggered by the brain when it perceives danger, even if that danger is not physically present (e.g., social situations, tests, or worries).
  • Educational Goal: To help children recognize these physical sensations as natural reactions, reducing the fear associated with experiencing anxiety.
