  • Excessive use of defense mechanisms leads to a habit of escaping from reality and indulgence in falsehood about one’s own self. 
  • However, reality chases, and sooner or later one has to face it. 
  • At such a point, the ego is no longer protected and it may lead to symptoms of mental disorders.
