| | State "fight or flight" which means in Polish "fight or flee" was the original people very necessary, since it served to protect life in situations of great danger and automatically elicited in a man of great biochemical changes. Suppose you live in the Stone Age and just going out to the river to relax after a hard day's work. Lie on the grass beside the river, watching the sunset and listen to świergotu forest birds. Then I suddenly hear the roar of a wild animal and you see five feet in front of the great wild tiger. Fortunately, Mother Nature has equipped you in a state of "fight or flight", which at this point seems to be priceless. Your life is at stake and so your nervous system runs the strategy of "fight or flight", or colloquially speaking fear. As soon as your body releases adrenaline, your heart beats at an incredible pace, pupils expand and breathing speeds up. Rate the situation and take one of two alternative decisions: to fight with the object of threatening my life or ucieczkać. Adrenalin, which releases your body will make sure that does not feel tired and you are able to take a huge effort, to which you would not fit in the normal emotional state. Cardiovascular and respiratory system work faster and more efficiently, giving you extra "kick" and increase your chances for a way out of trouble. Finally, after a few or several minutes, when the danger is past, biochemical reactions in your body are brought into the state standards and is weakening. Think what would happen if you had found himself in a similar situation does not have access to the fear (of "fight or flight")? Do you would have an equal chance of survival? Of course not. It was the fear gives you several times to increase the efficiency of your body and increase your chance of survival. | | |
