DEALING WITH WEAPONS IN SELF DEFENSE SITUATIONS
When a weapon such as a knife, needle or gun come into the picture panic and fear can come into the equation. Alot of people end up freezing in fear or feel there bladder loosen up,which is all normal responses that the body has in such a threatening self defense situation. A tip that helps prevent this kind of response from your body is to not focus directly on the weapon but instead to focus mainly on your attackers shoulder area which will move before any other body part moves giving you a heads up that your attacker is going to make his move. Also view his entire body at the same time as you do this, so you are looking at his shoulders but also you can see from the top of his head to the bottom of his feet.
This prevents you from becoming overwelmed when a weapon is placed into the picture because you are not having tunnel vision with the weapon in turn helping you lessen the stress of the situation and being able to deal with the task at hand not only physically but mentally as well. Also remember the importance of going into a controlled rage or killer mode this will help you be in the fight mindset not in the flight mindset preventing fear from taking over.
