It's to Anna Freud we owe the genius term 'defensiveness' to describe how most of us get some of the time.

What your going through is regression. You are not talking responsibility of who you are interested blamimg the video, becoming the victim. Therefore rationalizing this video sent by RU-vid gave you a bad experience. Justifying your reaction by saying you are feeling attacked.

Anna Freud enumerated the ten defence mechanisms that appear in the works of Sigmund Freud: 1. Repression, 2. Regression, 3. Reaction formation, 4. Isolation, 5. Undoing, 6. Projection, 7. Introjection, 8. Turning against one’s own person, 9. Reversal into the opposite, 10. Sublimation or displacement. But fantasy, humor, altruism, anticipatio, intellectualization and other defence mechanisms were described later on by their followers.

@TheManifoldCuriosity 9 лет назад

Just hours before seeing this video I was introduced to Anna Freud by an acquaintance of mine. He was talking about his upbringing and the weight imposed upon him by his eminent parents, one of which was a child psychologist. At a party they held Anna was present and questioned this acquaintance of mine on what it was like to be born of a family of such high esteem. He said, 'If you can't beat them, join them.' Slightly impertinent story, but what a coincidence that I discover so much about this figure in a single day!

@threeworlds131 4 года назад

I think many of these ‘defence mechanisms’ can be used in a positive way to reinforce the strength of the ego so the person has the energy to focus and accomplish what s/he needs to. For example regression to a childhood emotion of a laughing for no reason, for the mere joy of release, can help one keep a positive mood.

Fantasy and day dreaming are essential components to most creative writers. I wouldn't want to correct these two things, because I'm a writer. In a perfect world, fantasy prone personalities wouldn't affect our careers, because they would be writing or drawing instead.

@spencerstewart8604 9 лет назад

Sara Kjeldsen Hi Sara. I agree that many artists use art to avoid issues of their life. However, I think that the most meaningful and enduring art encourages us to look at our own issues squarely. Art that acknowledges the human experience faithfully is cathartic, and not art that idealizes the human experience. I think theres a split in the creative world, in literature for example, between work that encourages escapism and work that encourages acceptance. Would you agree?

@kierkiboy 9 лет назад

+Spencer Stewart You're misinterpreting the problem of Fantasy, it's different from Sublimation. That's the one that puts you're problems in your work. Fantasy on the other hand just ignores you're problems, not by denying their existence but by concealing them in giant fake world's. Like someone who's an extreme World of Warcraft player because he is to afraid to meet new people.

@spencerstewart8604 9 лет назад

Hi +Ljubisa Metikos Thank you for your input! I am aware of the distinction you bring up, that of sublimation vs. fantasy. In my reply to Sara Kjeldsen's comment I was trying to make the distinction between someone who pathologically fantasizes (the type of person described by Anna Freud, as well as you with your World of Warcraft example) and a writer who, as you say, sublimates their problems into literature. Thanks again for your thoughts.

@K.Voyence 8 лет назад

I'll be honest, intellectualism kind of went over my head a little. Does that mean thinking about "bigger issues" to avoid confronting your problems, minimising your issues by putting them in comparison with things that are considered "smarter" or "intellectual" on a larger scale, or learning new things as a means of emotional procrastination?

@Slechy_Lesh 8 лет назад

I'd say 1 and 3. The second one sounds too conscious

@astridlunden498 7 лет назад

I'd say it is a way of dealing with a problem we can't handle or understand, by turning it into something more logical, that we can learn about or solve in a logical way. When we make something purely intellectual, we are able to distance ourselves from the emotional side of the problem, and won't have to deal with unpleasant emotions.

Thanks for the enlightement, now if somone think his psychological life is miserable try to be someone else, for exemple I knew a friend: his mother had narcissictic personality disorder wich resulted in loving and caring behavior in public to attract empathy/admiration of others and very cold and careless behavior when in private, as a result he became strongly avoidant ,cold and cynical, self-hating and depressive, to quote John Paul The 2nd ''If you feel alone, look for someone even more lonely".

I see other people complaining about your biased look at Anna Freud, yet I feel that they discredit her and her father too much. Many of their theories have been disproven, or are just not of relevance in modern pshycoanalysis. Still, their discoveries have been taken up and thus been developed into the foundation of the field itself, so they are by no means insignificant. Still, you should really show more sides of the story and add some disclaimers. It's not as punchy of an effect, but then life is complicated, and schools can't fix your life all by themselves.

I just had a though: These are things we all probably have suffered from. But I wonder if we should actively try to change them. I'm taking the example of the sixth phase (Rationalisation): We did not get the job we wanted and consolate our selves by saying that the company was a boring one or that we didn't want the job anyway. What I always say to myself to make me feel better is that the job wasn't for me and that there is a better job out there waiting for me. I think that is actually a good thing because after you've failed at something (getting that job) you're still happy or satisfied with yourself. Should I start making some changes and accept that I was just not good enough for that job? I think that would make me unhappier. What do you guys think?
