CoPhilosophy: Group 2 (17)

I don't always think that it's true that you can control repression, sometimes you don't even realize that you are doing it, it works as a defense mechanism which Freud also discusses in many of his works. I believe it's possible that people repress emotions or painful memories sometimes so that they don't have to deal with them.
