What is the definition of fight or flight?
The "fight or flight" response is our body's primitive, automatic response that prepares the body to "fight" or "flee" from perceived attack, harm, or threat to survival. When the "fight or flight" response is activated, chemicals like adrenaline and cortisol are released into the blood stream. The rate of respiration increases, blood is redirected from the digestive system into the muscles and limbs; which require extra energy for running and fighting, pupils dilate, awareness intensifies, sight sharpens, impulses quicken, perception of pain diminishes, and immune response intensifies.
Which part of the brain is perceived by the need for adrenaline?
The hypothalamus is the main contol center of the autonomic nervous system, and when adrenaline, also called epinephrine is needed, it sends a neural message to the adrenal medulla so it can be released quickly into the blood stream, and since it is a vasoconstrictor, your blood pressure goes up quite rapidly preparing your body for the alarm response which is part of the flight or flight mechanism; part of the sympathetic division of the autonomic system.
