So, most people say that, in response to danger, people pick one of two responses: fight or flight. I found somewhere, on a website pertaining to personality types, an opinion that two other defensive strategies found in nature should be considered as well: freeze and flurry. Freeze being found among animals that play dead, or the proverbial deer caught in the headlights; flurry bringing to mind animals that run or fly around, trying to distract/confuse the predator... or simply being distracted/confused themselves.
Which makes me wonder, and if you could reply I would appreciate it: What's your typical response when threatened? Fight, flight, freeze, or flurry?
