Repression is an unconscious (or subconscious) defense mechanism that blocks out psychologically intolerable or traumatic thoughts and experiences. To a great extent, repression is used by everyone, adaptively.
Pathologically, repression can become a problem if it causes symptoms of anxiety and/or depression which impair day to day functional activities (e.g. school, work, relationships, etc.)
