	First World War.com - Feature Articles - The Repression of War Experience by W. H. Rivers
		Repression is so closely bound up with the pathology and treatment of these states that the full consideration of its role would amount to a complete study of neurosis in relation to the war.
		In this paper I use repression for the active or voluntary process by which it is attempted to remove some part of the mental content out of the field of attention with the aim of making it inaccessible to memory and producing the state of suppression.
		It is not repression in itself which is harmful, but repression under conditions in which it fails to adapt the individual to his environment.

	On Repression
		Repression is in fact is a process of preserving desire under otherwise impossible conditions, smouldering quietly beneath the damp clods of amnesia.
		The repressed person, who has no access to the bank account of their own desire, becomes reliant upon others, or at least one other - whether it is the psychoanalyst, or other person thought to be in the know - to put them back in contact with themselves.
		Repression, as opposed to suppression, implies, reversal, undoing; it may suggest consigning a thought, idea or memory not to a different place, but to a different time, back into the past.

	Critical Concepts: Repression (Freud's analogy)
		Thus the incompatibility of the wish in question with the patient's ego was the motive for the repression; the subject's ethical and other standards were the repressing forces.
		But in some respects, nevertheless, the repression has been unsuccessful; for now he is making an intolerable exhibition of himself outside the room, and his shouting and banding on the door with his fists interfere with my lecture even more than his bad behavior did before.
		This substitute for the repressed idea -- the symptom -- is proof against further attacks from the defensive ego; and in place of the short conflict an ailment now appears which is not brought to an end by the passage of time.

	Critical Concepts: Repression (psychological): some examples of category error concerning the concept
		Among these concepts are: the agent of the repression, the subject of the repression, the object (or target) of the repression, the motive(s) of the repression, conditions behind the motivation of the repression.
		The phrase "[they] were faced with repression" implies that repression was something that was done to or imposed upon them by some external force beyond their control - as if we were dealing here with (say) police repression or political oppression, or the (social) repression of a woman by her husband.
		And the fact that these feelings were repressed might either intensify their disguised repression or at least render the agent unable to recognize the inappropriateness of his "transferred" behavior towards these innocent others and so take steps to prevent it.

	Introduction to Sigmund Freud, Module on Repression
		However, when we are faced with obstacles to satisfaction of our libido's cathexis, when we experience traumatic events, or when we remain fixated on earlier phases of our development, the conflict between the libido and the ego (or between the ego and the superego) can lead to alternative sexual discharges.
		The interpretation of symptoms follows a similar path; the goal is to determine the repressed sexual desires or traumatic events that are causing the abnormal behavior to occur.
		As with the dream-work, psychological symptoms are often condensations or displacements (caused by repression) of deeper, unconscious impulses or buried memories.

	Sigmund Freud [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		He articulated and refined the concepts of the unconscious, of infantile sexuality, of repression, and proposed a tri-partite account of the mind's structure, all as part of a radically new conceptual and therapeutic frame of reference for the understanding of human psychological development and the treatment of abnormal mental conditions.
		Repression is thus one of the central defence mechanisms by which the ego seeks to avoid internal conflict and pain, and to reconcile reality with the demands of both id and super-ego.
		The difference between 'normal' repression and the kind of repression which results in neurotic illness is one of degree, not of kind - the compulsive behaviour of the neurotic is itself a behavioural manifestation of an instinctual drive repressed in childhood.

	Mechanisms of Gene Repression and De-Repression within Interphase Chromatin.
		This chromosome is repressed and heterochromatinized early in the course of embryogenesis (16).
		Cloning studies have revealed that the repressed state persists throughout the life of the cell (18), and that the same X chromosome that is repressed in the parent cell is found repressed in all of the resulting daughter cells (18).
		Such repression is mediated by the ability of histones, as cationic polyelectrolytes, to form electrostatic complexes with DNA (64-66), and by this means preventing the separation of the strands of the DNA double helix (59, 60) during transcription in RNA synthesis.

	REPRESSION: The Ego's Anxiety Filter
		For Freud, repression was the unconscious mechanism whereby unacceptable impulses or memories were kept hidden from awareness, as a basic defense which the ego uses to ward off anxiety.
		Repression is different than supression, which is an intentional squashing of a thought.
		Repression is a concept which comes from natural science but which Freud brought into the nomenclature nearly a century ago.

	repressed memory
		A repressed memory is the memory of a traumatic event unconsciously retained in the mind, where it is said to adversely affect conscious thought, desire, and action.
		No one has identified a single case where a specific traumatic experience in childhood was repressed and the repressed memory of the event, rather than the event itself, caused a specific psychiatric or physical disorder in adulthood.
		Terr's theory is that the child becomes practiced at repression to banish the awful events from awareness, and forgetting might aid in the child's survival.

	Repression
		Repression is a defense mechanism derived from Sigmund Freud near the beginning of the century (Gay 18-19).
		He was the first man to ever go to trial and be convicted of murder of the grounds of a recovered memory (repressed memories).
		There is no easy answer or explanation to the theory of repression and retrieval, but until psychologists can drag our unconsciousness into the light, retrieval of repressed memories will be left in the dark.

	Selective Gene De-Repression by De-Repressor RNA.
		Such cell differentiation is mediated by selective gene de-repression of an otherwise completely repressed genome (17), with the de-repressed genes being transcribed for specific RNA and protein synthesis characteristic of the differentiated state of that cell (18).
		Finally, such nuclear RNA is the most capable of all nuclear polyanions (2) in increasing the rate of RNA synthesis when added to previously repressed heterochromatin (Table 4), while having little or no effect upon addition to already active isolated euchromatin fractions (2).
		This gene de-repression was inhibited by actinomycin, indicating the need for the synthesis of new RNA rather than the utilization of pre-existing RNA molecules for such induced host albumin synthesis (75).

		Accordingly, when physical affection and pleasure during adolescence as well as infancy are related to measures of violence, we find direct evidence of a significant relationship between the punishment of premarital sex behaviors and various measures of crime and violence.
		As Table 4 shows, additional clusters of relationships link the punishment and repression of premarital sex to large community size, high social complexity and class stratification, small extended families, purchase of wives, practice of slavery, and a high god present in human morality.
		And the greatest threat comes from those nations which have the most depriving environments for their children and which are most repressive of sexual affection and female sexuality.
