Defense Mechanisms

For when you just can't take it anymore, but also when you can, but also when you have a good reason to.

Procrastination

• Learn how to turn your life into a series of infinite loops, guaranteed to drive you and everyone else crazy.

Denial

• Convince yourself, and others, that it's not your fault, even when it totally is.

Anger

• Yell at inanimate objects, or the nearest available human, until they do what you want.

Projection

• Assume everyone else is as messed up as you are, because clearly, it's not you.

Passive-aggressive

• Pretend you're happy, but actually, you're not. It's a great way to avoid actual conflict!

Negation

• Just...no. Not this, not that. Not ever.

Amplification

• Take a small problem, and blow it up into a massive, unmanageable catastrophe. It's a real thrill-ride!

Externalization

• Blame everyone else for your problems, even if it's not their fault. It's just easier this way.
