Why do Adults Experience Regression? (Psychological Defense Mechanism)

Описание: The regression defense mechanism involves reverting to an earlier stage of development when faced with stress or conflict. Instead of handling situations in a mature way, a person might exhibit behaviors typical of a younger age, such as throwing a tantrum, acting helpless, or seeking comfort objects. This is a way to cope with anxiety by retreating to a time when they felt safer and more secure. Regression is a common response to stressful events or significant life changes.
