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

is there a single book or something similar that explains and analyse all of them???
@@JoshuaChaves16 Mein Kampf
@@JoshuaChaves16 Yes, look for Anna Freud's book "Ego and the Mechanisms of Defense", on Amazon
Remember by PTSDD and guitar RIFF
Anna Freud, I came to youtube to have a good time and I'm honestly feeling so attacked right now.
David Davis Yup.....Displacement😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@jesusboyyyy Fantasy :/
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 CZcams gave you a bad experience. Justifying your reaction by saying you are feeling attacked.
@@suppercharge1 bs
😂😂😂
I'm already in denial of being defensive.
KnotApps did you just become self-aware?
lol the defence paradox
Anna effectively described modern society
+The School of Life Carl Jung.
Yep. Anna knew it all along.
Or maybe society has always been this way because humans have genetically barely changed
She described human behaviour
does that mean i use at this moment intellectualism by warching this video to avoid thinking about my homeworks?
Izuna Hosaki It may also be because life is not just homework? Better watching this than any gargabe content tv streams this days anyway..
perhaps
learning something is always a pleasure!
I am guilty of this right now.
I think that more like the distraction coping mechanisms.
I'm using that too!
tbh watching this is probably better for you than doing your homework
"You're getting a bit defensive." "NO I'M NOT!"
"Upon my back, to defend my belly; upon my wit, to defend my wiles;
upon my secrecy, to defend mine honesty; my mask, to defend my beauty."
So if I understood it properly, this is what Shakespeare has to say on the subject! ( In Troilus and Cressida). Thanks a lot for the great lesson! And a very happy new year to whoever who reads this!
thank you for your comment
Wow! I like this video. Never heard of Anna Freud until now.
Didn't know the names of these behaviours or how they are linked either. A fascinating insight into the conflicts with ourselves and with the world around us.
I agree, I never heard of her either.
Never heard of intellectualization until today but it is like a perfect description of me wow
Yeah, I recently ran into it in a book (Triumphs of Experience) and thought the same thing.
same buddy. same. My therapist brought this to my attention years ago. I work on it. It's really all you can do.
SAME
If it wasn't for my defense mechanism of intellectualization, I would never have known that it is called intellectualization.
@@capeandcode self fulfilling prophecy much?
What a woman.
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!
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.
Thank you for this fine little essay on Anna Freud.
I found this extremely valuable.
me too I put it in my favorites
I really apreciate these videos. They are very well made and interesting.
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.
This chanel is awesome guys, thank you for the videos and keep up the good work!
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.
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?
+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.
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.
+Spencer Stewart I do both. :)
+Sara Kjeldsen There you go! Happy writing to you.
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?
I'd say 1 and 3. The second one sounds too conscious
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.
See Barnett thinking about bigger issues sounds a bit like fantasy too
I would say the first one cause every second week i am like - who cares if i had a breakup, millions of people died during the world war
All three of them, I think.
This is so true. Thank you for making it more easier to understand!
What a great piece of information. Thank you so much for this post.
A very interesting set of ideas. I must contemplate this! They seem definitely true to me.
this video is a revelation to me; I never knew anything about her work and now that I know, it explains why people act the way they are acting!
love the school of life! not enough information from the great ladies of history and current life, nor any mention of the huge discrepancies against us from our past, as well as, presently in 2016!
They should really do a video on Karen Horney and her book Self-Analysis. It would really fit in well with this channel idk why they haven’t done it
karen who?
My fave SOL vid so far.
#8 reaction formation is on the LGSW practice test several times. A good one to know!
Very good. Came here to watch this again after years I did it for the first time, thank you
That is great! I mean, it happens a lot. At Uni I see people complaining about how boring a tutor is just because they've got a low mark on a test. How the subject is really non sense etc. instead of admitting that they are not doing well because there are things they should, and they're not doing. Thanks for the filme
thank you for these videos!
Man Anna is as the boom diggity! Answer and revealed so much about ourselves!
Adam Curtis -The Century of the Self
great & interesting video
I wish you'd make more videos about psychotherapy
interesting to see a video about fritz perls & gestalt approach
Great video, thank you very much !
Thanks for this videos!
Me parece que esta excelente el video, ojalá lo traducieran al español.
Overshadowed by Sigmund Freud.
Or Clement
That's the job of a child - to surpass the parent(s).
@@zekeedwards9708 Clement who?
孙明亮 Because he was a MAN
@@tamuna_3 shut up ignorant dickhead
I guess I have all 130 os those, lol
GREAT video. thanks a lot for sharing it.
I find a lot of people use jokes as a defense mechanism. Where would that be under? Sublimation?
Yeah. Complicated though - depends on the joke? And you have to be consciously aware of things in order to write jokes, surely ? God, I'd get confused, I couldn't think clearly enough down one train of thought
PlanYourLift Could be sublimation. There is an interesting article or chapter I once read called "Jokes and the unconscious" (not sure if I translated that correctly from Spanish).
Humour as a defence mechanism..
Humour. It's one of the mature defense mechanism.
Just read up on her and this video make me understand her theory a lot more than before thanks!!!
This is beautiful! I just wish I could learn how to avoid applying defense mechanisms or teach others
Sharp insights. For sure her book is a must read.
Absolutely wonderful. Thanks!
I think this might be my favorite video yet!
Hope to see a video of Edward Bernays. He utilized Sigmund Freud's psychoanalysis theories in public relations.
Oh god this is so good I study about Freud a lot even though my major is English literature
Then i get excited to know who's Anna and I am so happy now
Beautiful!!!
According to this video, I must be a piece of shit with the ego of Ironman and James Bond combined.
Very good!! Thanks for you 😊
Franz liszt! The master...I listen to him everyday after watching a few of your videos, what a coincidence, nice video by the way, you should probably talk more about ego and identity driven complex human behaviour patterns in your videos...
The way you explained rationalisation was the same as denial
Amazing video
Can one go through therapy just by watching all these vids? I feel like I'm making some breakthroughs here...
Anarchy Pony Hello. I feel very happy for you that you seem to find these videos helpful, however, I would advise consulting with a psychoanalyst. The reason I say this is because on your own, there is only so much you can grasp. A psychoanalyst can see things that you overlook and that is how he or she can help you.
Good one, well made. I'd looked for a video on YT about the concept of sublimation before but there's not much out there. There's some good stuff about Anna Freud on one or two Adam Curtis documentaries.
Very insightful.
great video!!!
Excellent!
Great little video.
You forgot Indetification - also a very common and important defense mechanism.
But again, there are so many, and thanks to you guys, I now know that Fantasy is actually a defense mechanism !!
What about undoing, isolation, introjection,reversal and repression ?. They're all in her wonderful book 'The Ego And The Mechanisms Of Defence'.
Stuart Schneiderman that book is expensive
Danke! She is great!
Favourited this video!
How enlightening!
Thank you one more time.
Thanks for sharng.
wow. this one can be especially telling.
wow! I love your videos ! What app do you use to make those?
What a brilliant mind!
very good
I wish I was able to like this video more than once.
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".
4:38 is actually quite disturbing if you think about it..
Is watching Allan de talking about Anna freud again and again one of the ten defense machinisme
I just asked mayself the same question, also I can relate to your missing english skills dude
Never knew Freud had a daughter until this video
Exactly what spirituality tries to work on!! so anna is on the dot. her work seems to be more useful to majority of people than her more popular father
you are joking right ?? you know that she just used her father ideas right ?
wasn't that defence mechanism from anna's (like sublimation, displacement, etc) was from her father theories (based on calvin s. hall and gardner lindzey's book)?
someone please explain it to me ..
Alain du Botton, you are the modern day Socrates.
Very nice :)
Sick!
currently I am affected by projection, turning against the self, regression, intellectualisation, Fantasy however, at least, I got rid of denial even though I'm not sure if that's a denial itself...
Fantasy. My favorite.
I am studying for my LSW and this video helped me quickly review the Mechanisms. Thank you! Anna Freud was awesome and way ahead of her time. I prefer her rational, conscious approach compared to her father:0
you are joking right ?? you know that she just used her father ideas right ?
Could u guys do one on Lacan, too !??? Love the channel !!!!
Yay! Thank u :)
am moving to berlin soon (: any tips?
Never go to Warschauer Straße or Simon Dach Kietz (except you r looking for a crowded touristic party hell); homeless people r thankful as well if u give them a bun, banana or something to eat instead of money (most of them they will spend it on liquor or drugs) and please don't trash the city - it's dirty enough as it is. Otherwise: welcome ! :-) In which part will u live ?
Please, a video on Carl G. Jung.
Rationalizations (ie., excuses) and projections may be the most important defense mechanisms.
I'm guilty of Intellectualisation and fantasy. How do I overcome them?
Taking responsibility of your thoughts. Self reflection. Analyze your strengths and weaknesses. Determine ways to gain new strengths and mitigate old weaknesses. Take responsibility of yourself.
firstly, remove the guilt. this is done through self-acceptance. plain and simple, my friend, there is nothing wrong with you. intellectualism and fantasies are antithetical in nature, one relates to the ego the other to the affective self. it's okay to have two minds in opposition to one another -- everyone is that way. these parts are simply your mind and your feelings. unconsciously you realize that both parts of you simply seek resolve. just forgive, truly forgive, and all your pain will vanish. love is something that is capable of altering time (because it is transdimensional); so *really* take the time to spend time in deep contemplation and acceptance of yourself. in a higher light, you will cease to suffer, because you will know your true Identity. do not imagine that this event of total acceptance is in the future. the only place you will free yourself is now. the ego loves to say that resolve is in the future. but that's a trick, an illusion. your affective self, on the other hand, can know peace in this very moment. what else could wish for yourself? forget everything you think you know, and make yourself ready to really discover. you're gonna need to close your eyes to do that, and to dream. you can put your intellectual self on your left side and your affective self on your right side, and allow them to communicate while you're not looking. But because you sought for an answer means that it will be found. Only those who do not ask will never realize. You are farther ahead than you may recognize. Good luck!
Rare metalmorph People today have a very big problem. They think of them as being either very good and nothing wrong with them or being very bad, lazy, not genetically capable etc. Go with the middle way. Be true to you, but don't fall in any of the 2 extremes.
Smoke two blunts and call me in the morning!
@@richq11 i'd puke :(
It's interesting how the CULTure we are hostage to is completely beyond reproach by Ms. Freud
This video actually does her father an injustice. Sigmund coined most (if not all) of these defence mechanisms. Strange the video dosn't acknowledge this.
doing no 7 RIGHT NOW
I found my self becoming defensive about my own shortcomings guess I need to readjust my ego to a more natural level of tolerance of my self
I am finding it hard to follow Aristotle's golden mean though
I think detachment could be a defensive mechanism.
Where you mentally check out and stop caring for what it's happening.
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?
Defense mechanisms are helpful only up till a certain as protect our sense of self. However, habitually resorting to any such mechanism can lead be maladaptive and can hamper personal growth.
I refuse to believe that I am in denial...... wait...
I recognise in myself one form of defense that i use the most: silence.
So what's the solution to escape I didn't get it .can anyone explain to me?
Defense mechanisms :
1. Denial
2. Projection
3. Turning against the self
4. Sublimation
5. Regression
6. Rationalisation
7. Intellectualisation
8. Reaction Formation
9. Displacement
10. Fantasy
Ha... Great stuff.

Sweet
Denial is not just a river
Can you tell me which programs did you use while editing and preparing?
every link that led to Freud, his daughter, and now this, video should be examined. But what would we be looking for?
