Answer to Question 1

psychosexual
Freud believed that all individuals experience certain stages of psychosexual development to some degree. He believed that if these stages were not psychologically completed and released, a person could be emotionally halted in development, resulting in the excessive use of defense mechanisms to avoid anxiety produced during these stages.

Answer to Question 2

B
Beta-blockers such as propranolol dampen sympathetic nervous system activity and are often effective in preventing symptoms of anxiety associated with social phobias. Neuroleptics are antipsychotic drugs, and social phobias are not psychotic disorders. Tricyclic antidepressants are rarely used, because of their side-effect profiles. Monoamine oxidase inhibitors are used for depression and only by individuals who can observe the special diet required.
