Omnipotence* |
Omnipotence defends against stressors and conflicts by
acting superior to others in terms of power, status, or ability. Self-esteem is
bolstered by the contrast with feelings or experiences of disappointment or
worthlessness. The distortion in self-evaluation is obvious to others.
Omnipotence is a Level 4 Defense Mechanism.
