77. (Fear) (Fight) (Flight) (Flatter) (Freeze)

To the basics.

When faced with fear, a person has four main responses: fight, flight, flatter, or freeze. Fight is when a person stands up for themselves and defends themselves against the fear. Flight is when a person tries to escape the source of their fear. Flatter is when a person attempts to appease or placate the source of their fear. Freeze is when a person is so overwhelmed by fear that they become immobilized and unable to take any action. (ao)

“None are more taken in by flattery than the proud, who wish to be the first and are not.”

Baruch Spinoza

Fear: Fear is an emotion that is caused by a perceived threat and is a natural response that helps to protect us from danger. (ao)

Fight: Fight is an act of physical aggression between two or more people, animals, or groups. It usually involves physical contact, but can also involve non-physical methods such as verbal abuse. (ao)

Flight: Flight is the process of escaping or fleeing from danger. It is an instinctive reaction that is controlled by the autonomic nervous system and can be triggered by a perceived threat or danger. (ao)

Flatter: Flattery is the act of giving excessive compliments, often with the intent to manipulate or deceive the other person. It is a form of communication used to gain attention or favor. (ao)

Freeze: Freeze is a natural response to fear or danger in which the body becomes rigid and immobile. It is an instinctive reaction that is controlled by the autonomic nervous system and is often accompanied by fear or panic. (ao)

ChatGPT (jan23):

“Flight, fight, freeze, flatter” is a phrase that is often used to describe the four ways that people tend to respond to stress or threat. The “flight” response refers to the tendency to flee or avoid the source of stress. The “fight” response refers to the tendency to confront or challenge the source of stress. The “freeze” response refers to the tendency to freeze or withdraw in the face of stress. Finally, the “flatter” response refers to the tendency to placate or appease the source of stress in order to avoid confrontation.
