Fight

Pure fight-mode

Loud · Direct · Volatile

Stress hits and your volume goes up. We both know it.

What this archetype looks like

Your dominant stress response is Fight. When cornered your voice gets louder, you push back the moment you sense mistreatment, anger is one of your faster reactions, and you'd rather argue than walk away. The good part is rare protective energy. The hard part is collateral damage when the threat wasn't actually a threat.

Quick to set limits

Watch-outs
