Answer:

Panic attack

Explanation:

COMPLETE QUESTION:

Which of the following is not a defense mechanism?

A) Denial

B) Idealization

C)Panic Attack

D)Displacement

Defense mechanism occurs in an unconscious level and done to avoid feelings of anxiety, frustration, or any untoward emotional imbalance. Amoong your choices a panic attack is not a defense mechanism. It is a physiological response to the environment.

Defense mechanisms are supposedly done to "alleviate" the feeling of discomfort. So for example, if you are facing a problem, to avoid it you simply deny you have a problem. This is what we call denial.

Idealization is when you exaggerate the positive attributes of yourself or others to take your mind or other's people view on the negative. For example, you father beats your mother (horrible I know), instead of seeing it as a bad thing, you just say that your father is the man of the house who provides for you so he has the right to blame others and vent out his frustrations.

Another one is displacement, where you vent out on something else because you are unable to do so on your source of frustration. If your boss or your teacher has been yelling at you unjustly all day and you cannot do anything about it, you kick a door instead out of frustration because you cannot go against your suppressor.
