Question

Situations: As an example, imagine yourself sitting alone inside a car or taxi along EDSA during night time. Traffic is bad and literally crawling. Suddenly, you notice a man standing at a distance and staring at you. Then he starts to walk toward your vehicle holding a black bag strapped around his shoulder. Your minds begins to race. You tell yourself your life or property might be in danger, or this man might hurt you. Your body begins to react by sweating and feeling cold. Your pulse beat faster as the man with the black bag slowly approaches the direction of your vehicle. You notice he is opening the bag and reaching out for something inside. You look around and not even your driver seems to notice him except you. You check on the door locks making sure they are secured, you reach out for your cell phone, and your hands are sweaty and shaking. You feel like shouting for help. You begin to panic and begin to shake the shoulder of your driver to take notice of the man coming closer and closer. Question: What was the external stimulus that you experienced? What emotion did you get from this stimulus? What were you thinking and feeling you getting from this emotion?
