What kind of life events or situations are "fight or flight" moments? What are some psychological and physiological effects?

Psychology - Ms. Sue, Wednesday, April 16, 2008 at 3:06pm
We experience a fight or flight response when we feel threatened. Often a tragedy such as the death or serious illness of a loved one or a broken marriage/love affair will trigger such a response.
