Summary
Denial is when we pretend something isn’t happening, and deliberately don’t think about it. Humans do it a lot. ‘No, I don’t have a drinking problem.’ ‘I’m not stressed, just a bit busy at work’. ‘I’m fine. I feel great’. Why do we go into denial? How do we stop? Is denial sometimes useful? If you have any questions or comments email Ian and James at [email protected] . Let them know any other topics you’d like them to cover.
