Freud's defense mechanisms?
I don't know if this is right and so you might want to look at other sources and compare. According to Freud, the ego has developed what he calls defense mechanisms, to cover for the wild demands of the id, which would rarely be socially acceptable. All of the defenses can be described as a combination of denial or repression with different ways of rationalization. When we rationalize, we are distorting the facts to make the event or our own impulses less threatening; that is, diluting the anxiety to a manageable level. We often come to believe our own distortions, or excuses, or even lies. http://people.emich.edu/pclark/freud/index.html
