Relationship denial is not a mental health diagnosis. It's a pop psychology term used to talk about dating and relationships. It's sometimes considered part of codependency. It usually refers to someone who wants to be with a romantic partner so badly they ignore all the blazing red flags waving that say the relationship is not working or the partner is not a good match.

If that's happening to you in your divorce or with someone new, it could certainly lead to depressive feelings and it would be worth talking to your counseling doctor about.

Relationship denial is usually fairly obvious to everyone except the person who's experiencing it, so don't be surprised if your TDR already knows about the behaviors and feelings you're talking about. I wish you the best.
Thank you, I go Monday and visit my TDR. I am going to talk to him about it. I have also read up on the codependency and I am going to ask him about this. I'm not seeing anyone right now just want to get all of this and find happiness with myself. If possible.

I think if I can work on getting out of denial, my life would be easier.
