Increase your self-esteem by understanding the defense mechanism undoing (1 minute read)<\/strong><\/h1>\n
This post “Increase your self-esteem by understanding the defense mechanism <\/em>undoing<\/em>“<\/em> continues with how you can increase your self-esteem by getting to know and manage your thoughts and feelings.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Increase your self-esteem by understanding the defense mechanism undoing:<\/strong><\/h2>\n
Undoing is attempting to cancel out, remove or take back an unconscious behavior or thought and thereby to avoid awareness of a thought or action that seems unacceptable, unhealthy, destructive or otherwise threatening. This is done by engaging in contrary thinking and behavior that have the opposite meaning of the distressing impulses.<\/p>\n
The aim is to symbolically<\/em> revert the entire event as if it had never existed.<\/p>\n
Undoing causes unawareness of unpleasant mental contents with less negative consequences than more immature defenses. Undoing is still maladaptive since it does now allow effective problem solving.<\/p>\n
An example is after insulting someone unintentionally to start praising the same person as an attempt to balance the damage done out.<\/p>\n
Or after thinking about being violent, becoming overly nice or accommodating.<\/p>\n
Or apologizing after being assertive.<\/p>\n
Or being nice to someone after having an aggressive thought against that same person.<\/p>\n
Undoing is one of the fundamental defense mechanisms in obsessive-compulsive disorder. It is more frequent among persons with panic disorder, social phobia, depression and affect instability.<\/p>\n
