Defenses can immediately repress awareness of a stimulus or the resulting feeling (Davanloo 1990, 2000). This occurs in patients suffering from depressive, functional, and psychosomatic disorders. A patient describes an argument with his wife while clenching his fists, then he drops his hands, which become limp: instant repression of the angry impulse. If asked what his impulse was, he won’t know. If asked what his feeling is toward his wife, he won’t know, or he will say he is anxious. Without an awareness of his feeling, the patient cannot differentiate his feeling from anxiety.
