How to use "Repressed" in context?
There is a certain stigma associated with words like "repressed." That is, people often believe that those who are repressed are living in a state of sadness, anger, or even depression. Unfortunately, this is not always the case.
There are a number of reasons why someone might be repressed. It could be that they are trying to avoid something that is making them uncomfortable, or it could be that they are trying to avoid pain. Repressed people can also be coping mechanisms, which is why it is often difficult to tell when someone is truly repressed.
