Sublimation is similar to displacement, but takes place when we manage to displace our unacceptable emotions into behaviors which are constructive and socially acceptable, rather than destructive activities. Sublimation is one of Anna Freud's original defense mechanisms.
Rationalization is a defense mechanism proposed by Anna Freud involving a cognitive distortion of "the facts" to make an event or an impulse less threatening. We do it often enough on a fairly conscious level when we provide ourselves with excuses.
Reaction formation is a psychological defense mechanism in which a person goes beyond denial and behaves in the opposite way to which he or she thinks or feels.
Identification with the aggressor is a defense mechanism proposed by Sandor Ferenczi and later developed by Anna Freud. It involves the victim adopting the behavior of a person who is more powerful and hostile towards them.
Pleasure principle works
-
The reality principle
As children mature, the ego develops to help control the urges of the id.

Once the ego has developed, the reality principle will push the ego to look for more realistic and acceptable ways to fill these needs.
While the pleasure principle plays an essential role in motivating actions, the reality principles help ensure that our needs are met in ways that are safe and socially acceptable.
Ego
Freud says that the go comes from the Id. This one ensures that the impulses of the id can be expressed in a manner acceptable in the real world. The Ego is the component of personality that deals with reality and functions in the conscious, unconscious and precocious mind. It works to accomplish and satisfy the Ids desires in realistic and socially way. Before making a decision and taking action, the reality analyzes de benefits and costs before making this action. In many cases, the id's impulses can be satisfied through a process of delayed gratification.
Freud compares the Id to a horse and the Ego to a horse rider where the horse provides the power and motion, while the rider provides direction and guidance.
The ego also discharges tension created by unmet impulses through secondary process thinking. The ego searches for an object in reality that is similar and matches the mental image created by the id's primary process
Id
Freud says that the Id is the primary component of personality present from birth. This aspect that is mentioned is totally unconscious and is instinctive. The Id is managed by the idea of accomplish the basic desires, needs and wants. If this desires are not accomplished fast there is a creation of anxiety and tension.
The Id is very important in humans early stages o life, infants. This is because the needs of the infant are manifested. A clear example of this is that if the infant is hungry or unconfortable they will cry until the demands of the id are satisfied.
Superego
The last component of personality to develop is the superego. Freud says its developed by the age of five. This one internalizes the moral standards and ideals that we acquire from our parents and society. It is present in the conscious, preconscious, and unconscious mind.
Two parts
Conscience
This one refers of the things that are badly seen by our parents and by society. This behaviors are often lead to bad consequences and punishments

The Interaction of the Id, Ego, and Superego and What Happens If There Is an Imbalance?
Interaction
These aspects are dynamic and always interacting to influence an individual's overall personality and behavior. Freud used theterm ego strength to refer to the ego's ability to function despite these dueling forces.
Freud says that in order to have a healthy personality, balance of the three of them is needed. Freud believed that an imbalance between these elements would lead to a maladaptive personality. An example of what Freud said is that if a person has a dominant Id, what may happen is that this person may be very impulsive, uncontrollable or even criminal.
