In this episode, Danica introduces the other "F" in the collection of trauma responses. In addition to fight, flight, freeze and face---there's Fawning. Fawning is a type of compulsive people pleasing that is often used to avoid being harmed, but can develop into a personality trait that silences one's own thoughts, self-value, beliefs and etc... Fawning can be used to keep one safe while at the same time, used to hurt others. It certainly begs to be examined and corrected so that healing can take place.
