Quick hack if you're caught in a flight or fight loop: tense every muscle in your body, all of it, hard as you can, really fucking go for it. You should be shaking from the effort. Hold for about ten seconds and then release

Your body basically just thinks it completed the fight or flight sequence and is out of danger.
