Once I realize that I am going to react too strongly, either out of anger or whatever else, I hold my breath then exhale slowly, then I count as I breath in and maintain a steady rhythm of inhaling, holding, exhaling and holding until I am calm. Although I didn't realize it until I read what was above, this process works to calm me and allows for the 'amygdala hijack' to pass allowing me to react calmly

Personally, I sturggle with public speaking. Things I have done to cope have been practicing, and creating the right mindset

# data[].attributes.body
A test or assignment stressing me out, I try to understand that everything will work out in the end and it won't destroy my life if I mess up. This gets me more willing to fail and helps me learn from failing.

# data[].attributes.body
Public speaking or even just presenting something infront of a class seems daunting. I simply recap everything I have to say and remind myself that everyone I am speaking to has my best interest at heart.

# data[].attributes.body
Some things that prompts those kinds of responses in me is confrontations in which I have done something wrong or I a being spoken to in a professional manner. It really does not bode well with a good mental state. But to help with the aftermath of this encounter, I usually say "Life" in the sense that "it is what it is". That one easy term "Life" sums it up in my mind that there are things that I cannot control and I more or less leave things up to divine intervention or the universe or whatever you want to call it.

Something that my cause a fight is confrontation. You can keep calm by not letting their words get to you or listen with an open mind.

# data[].attributes.body
When you outside your comfort zone you should focus on something else and keep your mind at peace instead of overwhelming yourself<

# data[].attributes.body
Confrontation can cause these emotions but by thinking clearly and thinking before you speak you can get through it

# data[].attributes.body
Mean comments and even verbal harrassment could trigger these responses. By taking a few seconds to reground oneself and organize their thoughts, people can address these conflicts and come up with an appropriate response.

# data[].attributes.body
One situation that might prompt a freeze situation is an upcoming test for a unit you have trouble understanding. When there's a test that I'm not prepared for, causing me to be stressed, I don't want to move because my heart is beating and sometimes, I don't want to communicate with others. It affects me mentally. I would take deep breaths to help me be calm and remind myself that this test won't matter in five years and that this shouldn't make be stressed. I also would take a walk because the calmness and quietness nature provides helps me be calm.

# data[].attributes.body
When I am put in situations out of my comfort zone such as public speaking I tend to overthink things and begin panicking which leads to me either leaving the online meeting or freezing on stage. To help counter my anxiety I close my eyes and take 4 deep breaths and remind myself to not let my fear control me.

# data[].attributes.body
When someone says something about your or someone else that you don’t like, you may be tempted to give a fight, flight, freeze, fawn or frenzy response. In this scenario, I would recommend taking some deep breaths. Then, ignore what was said as, depending on the situation, it may not have been the truth but just a person’s opinion. Or if you can’t ignore and must address it, in a calm tone, kindly state that you do not like what was said.

# data[].attributes.body
When something out of my control affects me in a negative way it can be extremely demotivating and can cause extreme stress. The best thing to do is stay grounded and try to do your best in either fixing what happened or do better in what comes next.

# data[].attributes.body
When I feel powerless or helpless about something important that is happening in my life, my brain automatically goes into the fight, flight, or freeze response. My heart rate goes up, I become dizzy and nauseous, and my head starts to hurt. One thing I do to combat this is to excuse myself to a safe or calming space, such as a sauna. Another thing I do in the moment is learn to breathe or catch my breath, and realize that I am in control. Something I struggle with especially day-to-day is health anxiety. I constantly have paranoia and false perceptions about whats happening to my body, and it feels out of control, as I can't command my body what to do when I feel that something inside me feels wrong. It makes me panic and feel a sense of doom. Whenever I feel this way, I tell myself to look at myself objectively: am I overreacting? Is it really that bad? I'm not actually dying, its just my anxiety trying to protect me. And I start to calm myself down by breathing.

# data[].attributes.body
When you are being challenged, and you should try to steady yourself mentally and physically before deciding what to do next

# data[].attributes.body
This may occur when you don't feel wanted in a space. What you can do in that situation is either to remove yourself, or take a little bit of time to yourself (at least 6 seconds) to focus on something else and work to calm down.

# data[].attributes.body
This response may occur when someone is against you, whether verbally or physically. A strategy to remain calm is to breathe slowly.

One situation may be when your views are being challenged.

# data[].attributes.body
I often feel the urge to flight when I get a gut feeling about something. For example, I frequently walk my dog by myself on a trail close by my house. One day when I was walking, in the distance I saw an older man walking towards me and my dog immediately stopped walking and sat down to stare at him. This was very out of character for my dog so my heart rate became very fast and my hands were a bit shaky as I was nervous as to what was going to happen and was unable to get out of the situation. I felt I needed to run in effect of my nervousness and a gut feeling that this guy did not have good intentions. As a way to keep calm, I try and repeat to myself that I am strong and am able to handle anything.

# data[].attributes.body
A common situation is that a jump scare or something horrible happened and you are in that state. In that situation, you should have steady breathing, tell yourself that to keep calm and collected, and that this is going to be over soon. This can make you a stronger and better person in the present and the future.

 Common situations in which these phenomena occur

# data[].attributes.body
Some situations are when I have impending assignments to submit, with new incoming lessons to complete in a short period of time for completion, when I have presentations to make or when I can not establish control on certain situations due to work capacity. Therefore, I implement a fixed timeframe to establish completion of my various tasks in a timely manner and I do diaphragmatic meditation to calm my mind and gain a peaceful aura to complete my impending assignments as this improves my cognitive responses in my work.

# data[].attributes.body
A common situation is taking a test. To help calm myself down, I think of the worst situation possible and take a few deep breaths. Usually, I realize that the worst situation possible isn't too bad at all.

# data[].attributes.body
I calm down by drinking something I like or listening to music.

# data[].attributes.body
A common trigger for me is loud noises. They scare me. A grounding technique I've learned is the 54321 method. List 5 things you can see from where you are sitting that you normally wouldn't notice. Then name 4 things you can touch. Then 3 you can hear, 2 you can smell, and one you can taste. This helps by distracting your brain. Another is the 874. Breathe in for 8 seconds, hold for 7, and exhale for 4. This helps steady breathing and heart rate.

# data[].attributes.body
One situation is in a test or exam where people tend to be nervous and the best way to deal with it is to keep calm and not freak out

# data[].attributes.body
One common situation that would trigger a fear response is getting on a stage or presenting to a large audience. A lot of people, including myself, have a freeze response where they get too overwhelmed by the crowd. I sometimes have trouble talking in stressful situations and one thing I try to do is take a deep breath and/or excuse myself from the situation to calm down and clear my mind. However it doesn’t always work, and that’s okay, I’ll just have to keep trying to learn from my mistakes.

# data[].attributes.body
I think a common situation for these is taking a test. Taking a deep breath, studying before the test (not the night before), and getting a good nights rest can help people stay more calm. Many people get jittery, nervous, and rethink everything they have learned, when they need to calm down. If you stay calm and understand the questions you will do great!

# data[].attributes.body
I think stressful situations and anxious ones can dictate the way a person reacts. Many stressful situations can dictate weather a person acts rational or has a fight or flight response to the situation.

# data[].attributes.body
Stressful situations can cause these responses. To cope, take deep breaths, reflect on what has occurred, and invision yourself on what you can do better when encountered in a similar situation.

# data[].attributes.body
I think stressful situations prompt those factors. Because if people become stressed they get frustrated which prompts a fight, they start to doubt themselves which prompts flight, and not knowing what to do next it prompts freeze. I would take time to reflect and calm down to help myself.

# data[].attributes.body
Stressful situations can cause any of these responses. Any situation that one is not comfortable with can lead to these issues. In order to keep calm and carry on, I tend to separate myself form the issue and take some time alone.

# data[].attributes.body
I would say a jumpscare would cause those reactions. I know people who have gone to haunted houses and tried to fight something or someone because of a jumpscare. I think my reaction would be either fight, flight, or freeze. I never paid attention to it. I think keeping calm would be focusing on your breathing, and thinking of something happy. If you got a jumpscare because of something random, I honestly don't think there's a good way to prevent your reaction because you don't expect the scare.

# data[].attributes.body
Any of these triggers can be caused by anger or sadness. Some may go directly into attack mode if someone makes a rude comment to you. People can also be speechless when something makes them sad/hits a soft spot.

One situation that can cause these reactions is when I am afraid that someone is mad at me. It can cause me to act in different ways than usual. I usually listen to music in order to feel better.

# data[].attributes.body
When I worry that my pals don't like me, this occurs. I reflect on this to appreciate their affection for me and to comprehend why I felt this way.

# data[].attributes.body
This happens when I fear that my friends don't like me. I think through this to understand how much they love me and to understand why I felt this way

# data[].attributes.body
My fawn response gets triggered often when I fear other people are mad at me, usually just because of the tone of their voice. I can hit pause by thinking through what triggered me and about why what I'm thinking is and whether or not it is true.
