Detailed explanation-1: -In psychology, sublimation is a mature type of defense mechanism, in which socially unacceptable impulses or idealizations are transformed into socially acceptable actions or behavior, possibly resulting in a long-term conversion of the initial impulse.

Detailed explanation-2: -Sublimation is one way that the ego reduces the anxiety that can be created by unacceptable urges or feelings. It works by channeling negative and unacceptable impulses into behaviors that are positive and socially acceptable.

Detailed explanation-3: -Sublimation is a defense mechanism that involves channeling unwanted or unacceptable urges into an admissible or productive outlet. For example, a woman who recently went through a breakup may channel her emotions into a home improvement project.

Detailed explanation-4: -Definition. Sublimation is the channeling of unacceptable feelings, desires, and impulses – often of a sexual or aggressive nature – into positive, socially approved activity. This activity is often creative, but it does not have to be.

Detailed explanation-5: -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.
