Nina LacourThe trouble with denial is that when the truth comes, you aren't ready.
About This Quote
Denial is a coping mechanism that enables people to avoid what is happening in their lives. They choose to live in a world of make-believe, where the problems and pain do not exist. However, when you finally accept and acknowledge that fact that the situation in your life is indeed real and it has gotten out of hand, you can see that you have been living in a fantasy world.
