I hope it's helpful for you
Explanation:
We all have thoughts, feelings, impulses, and memories that can be difficult to deal with. In some cases, people deal with difficult feelings by utilizing what are known as defense mechanisms. These defense mechanisms are unconscious psychological responses that protect people from feelings of anxiety, threats to self-esteem, and things that they don't want to think about or deal with.1
The term got its start in psychoanalytic therapy, but it has slowly worked its way into the parlance of everyday language. Think of the last time you referred to someone as being "in denial" or accused someone of "rationalizing." Both of these examples refer to a type of defense mechanism.
Explanation:
REGRESSION
In times of stress, you may find that your behavior becomes more childish. This is one of the defense mechanism known as regression. Regression causes you to revert to a young level of development and earlier, less demanding behaviors as a way of protecting yourself from confronting the actual situation.
