Psychological defense

We constantly alter our reality in order to cope with it. Each time certain events occurred that caused psychological trauma, or when we were faced with a painful experience, we formed psychological defenses to live through this traumatic event and cope with it. In other words, psychological defenses protect us from the pain of reality, distorting it for us, and thus do not allow us to face it directly. Therefore, phycological defenses come to the rescue when we feel trauma. Roughly speaking, the subconscious mind has an attitude: "Anything but this!" And you are immediately like "in a bunker" without windows and doors.
