Beyond Fight or Flight: Exploring the Spectrum of Trauma Responses

When faced with trauma or in a situation that brings you back to a place of past traumas, there are several different ways that someone could respond or react.

Depending on our personality, current support network, how we were raised, or what type of coping mechanisms we have in place, just to name a few, can and will influence how we react to particular stimuli.  

This is why, in today's episode, we are exploring the spectrum of trauma responses beyond fight or flight.

Listen now for more about the fight, flight, freeze, fawn, fine, faint, and flop trauma responses.
