Answer to Question 1

A
Defense mechanisms such as somatization or abuse of drugs or alcohol are considered to be maladaptive when they become the only way a person responds to a threat, thus preventing the person from progressing toward resolution and acceptance of stress. An acute state of disorganization or crisis occurs when a person's stressors exceed her or his coping ability.
