When incomplete, these responses form the symptoms of trauma. Fear greatly enhances and extends immobility.

With each episode of freezing, the amount of energy summoned to deal with the situation increases due to the cumulative effects.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">The added energy necessitates the formation of more symptoms. The immobility response not only becomes chronic, it intensifies. As the frozen energy accumulates, so do the symptoms that are trying desperately to contain it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">In addition to its survival function and painkilling effect, the immobility response is also a key part of the nervous system&rsquo;s circuit breaker. Without it, a human might not survive the intense activation of a serious inescapable situation without risking energetic overload.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">The volcanic energy of trauma is bound in the coupling of fear and immobility. The key to moving through trauma is in uncoupling the immobility from the fear associated with it. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">When a frightened animal comes out of immobility, it does so with an intense readiness for counterattack or in a frantic, non directed attempt to escape.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a href=\"?p=673\"><span style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 255);\"><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: Verdana;\">read more &#8230;<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Immobility Response The duration of the immobility response in animals is normally time-limited; they go in and they come out.
