Episode notes
Active coping involves fully recognizing and integrating experiences, facing them directly, and actively working through them, while defense mechanisms operate at an unconscious level to protect from anxiety and unpleasant emotions. Coping behaviors are conscious and voluntary strategies used to manage stress and traumatic situations, unlike defense mechanisms which are automatic and occur beyond conscious awareness.
