Defence mechanism in mental health
NARTISSISTIC
Projection: A person attributes his own feelings and wishes to another individual because of intolerable inner feeling or painful affect .
eg.Student who copies thinks that all or healthy
Primitive Idealization: External objects are viewed as “all good” or “all bad” and are aunty elastically enclosed with great power
Spitting: external objects are divided into “all good” and “all bad” accompanied by abrupt shifting of an object from one extreme category to the other.
Denial: This defence is used to avoid becoming aware of some painful aspect of reality
Distortion: external reality is grossly reshaped to satisfy inner needs.
IMMATURE
Acting out: the individual expresses and unconscious wish for impulse through action to avoid being conscious of the accompanying effect.)
Example: getting angry with a nurse ( actually to doctor)
Hypochondriasis: Reproach arising from loneliness or unacceptable aggressive impulse towards others is transformed into self-reproach with complaint of pain somatic illness and neurasthenia
c. Introjection: internalization of the qualities of an object and obliteration distinction between the subject and the object
