[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was in an earthquake once. My first thought was not my baby, it was utter confusion since it was the first earthquake I had experienced. My second thought was husband, then baby. Luckily it was a mild earthquake but it sort of scared me that my first thought wasn't the baby. I'd like to think that my instincts have changed (because the baby was only a few weeks old then) but I hope they are never, eve put to the test.

Also a good read is  The Unthinkable: Who Survives When Disaster Strikes - and Why. It goes into detail about different reactions people have had in disasters, like fires and shootings. The Flight, Fight or Freeze responses are pretty powerful, and very hard to overcome.[/quote]

PP here with "good" crisis reflexes, and I really agree with this and don't think we can take credit for our reflexes at all.  Honestly, mine most likely come from my abusive childhood and years of track: I react quickly, am hyper-aware of my surroundings, and have a savior complex.  But I wouldn't wish the path I traveled to get here on anyone![/quote]
