Here are the definitions of the terms I used. i am sure you can figure it out Cheryl, you are obviously an intelligent person.

Quote:
Projection:The tendency to ascribe to another person feelings, thoughts, or attitudes present in oneself, or to regard external reality as embodying such feelings, thoughts, etc., in some way.

Quote:
Denial: an unconscious defense mechanism used to reduce anxiety by denying thoughts, feelings, or facts that are consciously intolerable.
So you continue to believe that I started the thread called Internet Recovery Fakes because I am a fake, or I "ascribe to another person feelings, thoughts or attitudes" present in myself?

That is quite an accusation cody!

Denial is something I simply do not do. I recognise denial as being a very serious problem and I see it in many people. In all honesty, I would LOVE to be in denial! So is there any chance that denial is YOUR defence mechanism cody? Are you reducing your own anxiety by denying "thoughts, feelings or facts that are consciously intolerable"?

I hope this thread won't be locked. It is you who brought up the subject of Projection and Denial cody.
