Reactions during Stress are not up to you!
Do you feel guilty about your emotional or physical reactions during the trauma? You may be ashamed of freaking out, running away, freezing up, shaking, crying, yelling, etc. because did not expect to react that way.
Human beings CAN'T control their bodies and emotions during extreme stress. There is not on/off switch… especially in a scary, life-or-death situation you’ve never gone through before!
