Defense Mechanisms Wheel Infographic in Bold Editorial Style

Psychology infographic titled "Defense Mechanisms". Use the DEFENSE MECHANISMS wheel archetype (not a personality type matrix), designed as an editorial psychology magazine illustration. Create a bold gradient, high-contrast bold palette with clean modern layout, dramatic contrast, vivid segmented circular wheel, expressive but non-stigmatizing symbolic icons, and polished infographic styling. Center a circular wheel with 10 clearly separated segments, each segment featuring a defense mechanism name in English, a short educational caption in English, and an evocative icon. Include these 10 mechanisms: 1. Denial — refusing to accept a difficult reality; icon: broken mirror or closed eyes. 2. Projection — attributing one’s feelings to others; icon: shadow cast outward. 3. Rationalization — creating logical-sounding excuses; icon: speech bubble and gears. 4. Displacement — redirecting emotion to a safer target; icon: arrow changing direction. 5. Repression — pushing distressing thoughts out of awareness; icon: locked box underwater. 6. Regression — reverting to earlier coping patterns; icon: staircase going downward or childlike toy. 7. Reaction Formation — expressing the opposite of a hidden feeling; icon: comedy mask over storm cloud. 8. Sublimation — channeling impulses into constructive action; icon: flame transforming into art or trophy. 9. Intellectualization — focusing on analysis over emotion; icon: brain with ruler or chart. 10. Humor — using wit to manage discomfort; icon: smile with lightning bolt. Add a small footer note in English framing defense mechanisms as informal educational psychology concepts, not diagnostic labels or medical tools. Avoid stigmatizing language, avoid labeling the viewer, avoid any diagnostic medical claims. Visually energetic composition inspired by pop-culture relationship-drama mood, but do not include the search phrase as on-image text. All text MUST be written in English (array). Every heading, label, caption, legend and metric name in the image must be in English — not English. Spell each English word correctly using English characters and diacritics. Numbers stay as digits, no diagnostic medical claims, no watermarks No diagnostic medical claims, no labeling viewers, no stigmatization. Frame personality systems as informal / educational, never as diagnostic tools.
