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.
