Heya Craig..

This sentence of yours isn't making sense to me:
"That something internal is causing us to be frozen in fight or flight even if there is no reason for it?"

You've stated 'something internal causing it' so how can there be no reason for it?
It's knowing the 'something(s)' that is the key to figuring out ones stressors.

I agree the stress state can be constant..absolutely. If it's viral stress is would be constant until detected and treated.
If it's emotional that can come and go....or stay constant if the exposure is constant.
There is a reason for everything and i find it hard to accept that being stuck in fight/flight state that you describe for no reason at all is highly unlikely. Something triggered the dysregulation.
Currently it's predominantly acknowledged that emotional/psychological factors 'mess up' the HPA axis which keeps a person locked in fight flight mode.
That i don't dispute at all..yet i also think it's also possible for physiological mechanisms to keep a person in that mode.

Lam does mention the HPA axis and continual emotional stress as a big factor in AF syndrome in his book. He related it more to the early stages of high cortisol/adrenaline mode.
He also says that if using his protocol and no improvement is made (through personal consult with him) that generally those people have another factor occurring such as an underlying infection...or physical problems with an endocrine organ that are linked to the HPA or OAT axis'.
