Dr. Bernard Seif answered

Specializes in Clinical Psychology

When we get: Nervous the fight flight freeze response turns on to help us run or fight off the danger, be it a tiger, boss, or friend. Blood goes to arms and legs, and away from areas not needed for survival at that time such as digestion and sexuality. Herbert benson's relaxation response book will tell you more and teach you a way to deal w/anxiety. Peace and good health.
