A member asked:

When i was being chased by some dangerous man i didn't get an adrenaline rush despite knowing i might die. in fact, i felt numb and fainty and the only reason i kept running was my dog yanking me back into reality. is there something wrong with me?

Fight, flight or ...: We all react differently in potential life threatening situations. Some feel numb and freeze only to be yanked by their dogs. Other have flight - and run away fast and still others fight- and take on the aggressor.
