Has anyone here read the book: Fight + Flight by Jules Machias?

I found it in my daughter’s nightstand and I KNOW my daughter did not put it there… I think my wife has… ???? Is there something wrong here? It says Not For Sale right on the front… how would someone come in possession of this book?

Edit: this might be the 1000% wrong place to post this? Idk?

My friend is in constant fight mode

My friend is depressed and in constant fight mode towards me. I want to help them but I have compassion fatigue and my own health issues. Has anyone experienced a positive way forward from this type of scenario? I just want to be a good friend.

Exhaustion from long-term fight or flight

I’ve recently successfully completed an intense 3 month mental health program (PHP and IOP) to help me with my PTSD among other issues. I was living in fight or flight for the majority of my life for the past few years. Now I’m finished with the program, but I’m beyond exhausted (both physically and mentally). I eat a clean diet (minimal processed foods), don’t drink alcohol or do drugs, and I exercise regularly, but I feel like I’m 30 years older than I am currently (41 and female). Has anyone experienced something similar? Any tips on how I can get my energy back?

Am I the a**hole for beating up a kid a grade lower than me?

Me, a ?m beat up a kid who was 2 years younger than me and a grade lower, let’s call him jimmy. To start, I have anger issues and a very short fuse sometimes. One day I got to school and was waiting outside for them to open the doors as many people usually do, if you get there early you have to wait outside at the entrance until the doors opened. One day, jimmy started calling me Tarzan for a reason I don’t remember, and I started roasting him back and words exchanged. Next day I thought it was over and he kept calling me Tarzan because I have blond hair and blue eyes, it pissed me off to be honest and he was winning, I didn’t want to let that happen. It persisted for a month and I didn’t tell anyone, mostly because I’ve been bullied before and my school doesn’t do anything about it. So I come into school one day and this kid is being more annoying than ever and I keep asking him to stop calling me Tarzan and I pushed him because he said it, he kept saying and basically asking to get his ass kicked because I’m two times his size. I said “if you say it one more time I will heat you up” and he said “ok Tarzan” so I went behind him and grabbed the handle thing on the top and back of his backpack and barely swung my arm and he went flying onto the ground about 2 feet away, I walk over to him and his sister hits me with her water bottle on my knee while I’m walking over to him, but I don’t hit her back because she’s a girl, I start walking up to this kid like it’s a anime battle and I jump on him and start punching him lightly like it’s a sibling battle because I didn’t want to hurt him to bad, he just cradled up like a rolley polley, and I kept punching him with the equivalent power of a anorexic 5 year old bitch slapping, I told him to get up and it took him a minute because he has his backpack on, then he gets up and I tell him to hit me, he tries to kick me and I grab it and flip him over (I do kickboxing and wrestling so I have a high advantage) and then he gets back up and then the teacher come out and I snitch on myself because there is no point in lying because like 10 people saw it including his sister, because I told the truth I got lunch suspension only and it was only my first warning and I had to apologize, they showed the video f me doing it and it was absolutely hilarious. Now that I look back I wish I had beat him 10x harder, he must have learnt his lesson because he shut up, no one got Any video except for the security cam and no one really payed attention when I fought him they just minded their own business.

Is immense stress causing my brain to shut down as they say. I get numb and tingle over my body and very tired and seem our of it even fell asleep for a minute. Wanna make sure I'm ok!

I've been dealing with a really bad marriage i get svaremaed at and cheated on. Im having a hard time because today for the first time after yesterday when I had a mental breakdown, when things got to stressful my entire body went like a tingly numb and I was shaking but my whole body not hard but uncomfortable and I had to take a second emergency dose of my xanax to stop it and I never ever needed 2. I started getting really out of it and tired as well as my eyes getting heavy. My head seemed blocked and I was very out of it trying to talk. I probably looked messed up lol but I was told it's the brain shutting down as its defense mechanism? Im very nauscious im shakey and im heartbroken because I decided to end the marriage. Im on meds to help but I was wondering what was going on with my brain and body if anyone can help I would appreciate it. It happened a second time before so I want to make sure I'm actually ok! Thanks.

I like "Fight Or Flight" better than "Flight Or Fight"

It just sounds better
