THE REPRESSED IS NOT REALLY FORGOTTEN IN THAT SYMBOLIC BEHAVIOR MAY BE PRESENT. THIS DEFENSE DIFFERS FROM SUPPRESSION BY EFFECTING CONSCIOUS INHIBITION OF IMPULSES TO THE POINT OF LOSING AND NOT JUST POSTPONING CHERISHED GOALS. CONSCIOUS PERCEPTION OF INSTINCTS AND FEELINGS IS BLOCKED IN REPRESSION.

|
|
|
|
SUBLIMATION
|
ACHIEVING IMPULSE GRATIFICATION AND THE RETENTION OF GOALS BUT ALTERING A SOCIALLY OBJECTIONABLE AIM OR OBJECT TO A SOCIALLY ACCEPTABLE ONE.
