Denying the Obvious Addictive thinking includes strange denials. A compulsive gambler who had been economically ruined by gambling was adamant in his ability to win. The gambler said, I have a winning system, but when I get to the track I get so excited that I don't put my system into operation. When I do, I know I will win. Can you think of anything so insane as a person in total ruin planning to continue the same activities that brought on his disaster? Whether it is gambling, chemicals, food, or sex, the story is always the same: the addict has an ingenious way of denying the obvious.
