..oh, BTW, I'm still waiting for you to provide some evidence...

What are the negative consequences of unresolved denial? Unresolved denial can result in: Delusional thinking, leading to a feeling that everything is OK, even when it is not. Greater conflict between the deniers and the non-deniers. Fantasy or magical thinking, allowing distorted thinking to become a habit. Poor problem-solving and decision-making abilities for the denier.
