2. DENIAL
( By Meriam Webster ) ¡V 1.) refusal to satisfy a request or desire 2.) refusal to admit the truth or reality 3.) negation in logic 4.) a psychological defense mechanism in which confrontation with a personal problem or with reality is avoided by denying the existence of the problem or reality
3. DISPLACEMENT
