Rather than repress the anxiogenic (anxiety-inducing) content, mentally ill people deal with it in the following dysfunctional ways:
1. Dissociation
2. Conflate external with internal objects (hypereflexivity)
3. Reframe reality (impair reality testing)
4. Attempt to cope with anxiety via reciprocal inhibition (Wolpe) that devolves into obsession (or obsessional neurosis).
5. Externalization: aggression (sharing the anxiety)
