When stress spikes, the brain activates survival mode, which includes three responses: fight, flight, and freeze. The freeze response occurs when the brain becomes overloaded, causing temporary shutdown even when a person knows what to do. This protective mechanism isn't a failure but rather the brain's way of trying to protect the individual. Training through repetition helps people react automatically under stress, and controlled breathing can help the brain regain control during panic situations.
