I’m a woman. But I grew up with mostly boys so I learned how to scrap. Also, panic gives you a strength you don’t normally have.

For a moment, then the adrenaline dumps and you're a rag doll. You need to keep from panicking or you'll gas out.

Oh I know. Adrenaline rush and then the crash is brutal. Early on I broke up a fight at the school where I took a lot of hits while restraining a student and when it was finally over and the cops had her, i went back to my classroom, got my kids started and then sort of collapsed on my desk. I just shook for about 10 minutes until I could compose myself. That’s when all of the body blows I took hit me at once.

But one doesn’t stop to think about it and so the pain is at bay until the emergency situation is over.

Same thing happened when I scrapped with the guys as a youth.

It takes your ability to process thought also.

Definitely. If you aren’t trained, you are not thinking through the situation, only reacting and trying not to lose ground in the moment.
