Answer:

False.

Step-by-step explanation:

Blocking is a defense mechanism in which the unconscious hides memories of pain to avoid suffering. When this happens, however, the painful situation does not cease to exist: it starts to manifest itself in an unconscious way, reflecting negatively on the person's life without him realizing it. In the case of the question above, we do not have an example of blocking because Gina is not going through a moment of pain and suffering to the point that her brain hides those memories, Gina is just going through a very uncomfortable moment and it is recommended that she talk to her roommate about it.
