Subconscious desires refer to thoughts, feelings, and urges that we are not consciously aware of but still influence our behavior. These hidden desires can stem from unresolved conflicts or repressed memories.
These are psychological strategies that individuals use unconsciously to protect themselves from uncomfortable thoughts or feelings.
Repression is a defense mechanism where distressing memories or thoughts are pushed down into the unconscious mind.
