DENIAL:
Denial is fertile breeding ground for the behaviors we call
codependent: controlling, focusing on others and
neglecting ourselves. Illness and compulsive addictive
behaviors can also emerge during denial.
Denial can be confusing because it resembles sleeping.
We're not really aware we're doing it until we're done
doing it. Forcing ourselves – or anyone else – to face
the truth usually doesn't help. We may admit to the truth
for a moment, but we won't let ourselves know what we
know until we feel safe, secure, and prepared enough to
deal and cope with it.
Talking to friends who know, love, support, encourage,
and affirm us helps.
The first step toward acceptance is denial. The first step
toward moving through denial is accepting that we may
be in denial, and then gently allowing ourselves to move
through.
