Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This CBT handout from the Centre for Clinical Interventions explains the physiological mechanisms of the fight/flight response, detailing how the sympathetic nervous system triggers physical changes like increased heart rate and altered breathing. It addresses common misconceptions about anxiety, noting that these reactions are protective rather than harmful, and aims to normalize the experience for clients by stating that one in five people may experience significant anxiety at some point.
