Regression
There are generally two types of regression. See malignant and benign Regression, Michael Balint.
Benign Regression
Benign regression aims at reconciling disjuncture by allowing the person to experience a state which typically was more free, open, loving, allowing, or generally more pleasant. "Regressing" into an earlier phase in life in which the PU was relatively unpoisoned by the toxic socialization process has therapeutical effect. If the regression was sufficiently strong, then
a) it might give the current day psychological status a strong message.
b) it will allow the merging of the previous, pleasant state with the current unpleasant state, thereby reconciling psychological disjuncture.
c) after the regression is over, it will encourage the person to act as if she was in a relatively unpoisoned state, thereby merging (or at least lowering the discrepancy of) emotional states with psychological states. This has a lasting effect, until the toxic socialization undoes this effect.
Malignant Regression
Malignant regression happens when the osychological system chooses to use regression as a means to avoid unpleasant experiences. It is an avoiding mechanism. The aim and end result of a malignant regression is the psychological status quo of the whole system. (after the regression) --Aim (talk) 12:16, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
