Psychotherapy - Defense mechanisms
Acting out - ✅✅ -An immature, action level defense mechanism. Includes
dealing with emotional conflicts and stressors by behaving without reflection or
apparent regard for negative consequences

✅✅
Affiliation - -A mature, high adaptive defense mechanism. Includes
reaching out to others for support, confiding in others, feeling less alone,
seeking advice, on an individual level (e.g., reaching out to a close friend)

Altruism - ✅✅ -A mature, high adaptive defense mechanism. Includes
dedication to fulfilling the needs of others, receiving gratification vicariously or
directly from others (e.g., blowing off steam by doing a neighbor's yard work)

Anticipation -✅✅ -A mature, high adaptive defense mechanism. Includes
mitigation of emotional conflicts or stressors by considering realistic solutions
and preparing for emotional reactions to future problems/distress (e.g.,
rehearsing a conversation)

Autistic/schizoid fantasy - ✅✅ -A disavowal, immature defense. Includes
excessive daydreaming as a substitute for human relationships or problem
solving, and involves feeling dream world gratification rather than practical
rehearsal of solutions.

Denial - ✅✅ -A disavowal, immature defense mechanism. Includes refusal to
acknowledge some aspect of external reality or an aspect of ones experience
that would be apparent to others.

Devaluation - ✅✅ -A minor image-distorting, immature defense mechanism.
Includes attributing exaggeratedly negative qualities to oneself. (E.g., making
derogatory, sarcastic, or negative statements to cover up a sense of shame or
worthlessness)

Displacement - ✅✅ -A neurotic defense mechanism. Includes generalization
or redirection of feelings onto another object or response. (E.g., someone gets
yelled at at work, does not yell back, but then yells at their spouse when they
get home)

Dissociation - ✅✅ -A neurotic defense mechanism. Includes altering the
functions of consciousness or identity to "remove" oneself from one's normal
