fight or flight

fight or flight.

The fight-or-flight response, also called the acute stress response, was first described by Walter Cannon in 1929. His theory states that animals react to threats with a general discharge of the sympathetic nervous system, priming the animal for fighting or fleeing. This response was later recognized as the first stage of a general adaptation syndrome that regulates stress responses among vertebrates and other organisms. -- Wikipedia

Oh I've been in this situation one too many times.

Don't we all have the right to whine, complain or in certain extreme cases, shove it up to the receiving end's face when we are not content, or when that crucial need is lacking or unfulfilled?

I cannot, for the love of God, decipher why everytime that fight response is activated, it is interpreted as a means of incessant nagging. Is it because of the way the concern is delivered? Or maybe because the receiving end simply does not give a shit about my concerns, and is too smothered in the filth of it's sloth.

Maybe it's about time I seriously RECONSIDER the option for flight.

Please don't tell me- I told you so! ... I already know.
