Denial is a natural coping mechanism for things that happen which
we don?t really want to see.
Be honest with yourself and ask:

- What are the thoughts or situations I have been trying to avoid?
- What have I rejected because it?s ?too close to home??
- Is there some truth in it? If so, what can I plan to do about it?

Face your behaviour, make a plan to improve it and then stay with
the plan.
