Default Re: OT: A question about the Human Ability to Cope

My limited experience with fighting / combat is that some people will go to a "different place" when in a pretty tough situation by putting off their emotions (and paying for it in the long run with delayed stress issues...that sucks). Others just go to peices or react poorly (like acting agressive towards the people with guns). Funny thing is that you pretty much can’t tell who will do what until they are in it up to their necks, either.

I guess what I'm saying is that you'd see a lot of "chaos" at first when people are reacting with blind panic and fear, and then as people get familiar with the terror / mosters / whatever, they will deal with them better as they understand their enemy better and adjust to the new situation.
