Assignment task:
"Repression can be beneficial in certain situations, as it can help to protect individuals from emotional trauma by providing a sense of emotional detachment. For example, individuals who have experienced a traumatic event may use repression to cope with the aftermath and help them move on with their lives. Repression can also help to keep emotions in check in situations where individuals may otherwise feel overwhelmed or unable to handle their emotions. In the case of Oprah, repression has allowed her to remain focused on her accomplishments and continue to progress despite the pressures of fame, as well as the potential risks of failure associated with her increased wealth and notoriety" (Merritt, 2019).
