Attention Quebec, Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux Alain Poirier
It is amazing that the Quebec health and social services minister has still to properly act on even one of my many letters to him or especially even my local Lieberal elected member of the Quebec Legislature now too
The union, representing 55,000 nurses across Quebec, has sought a reduction of mandatory overtime hours, and limits on recruiting nurses from private agencies. Some nurses report regular double shifts, especially those with less seniority but anyone who goes into nursing expecting 9-5 hours, week day hours is a fool.. for many people are often sick 24 hours per day, and seven days a week and require permanent nursing care in hospitals and old age homes included.
MY PERSONAL MONTHS OF DIRECT OBSERVATION ABOUT THE MEDICAL WORKERS WHO COMPLAIN THAT TOO MANY ERRORS ARE CAUSED BY THE WORK OVERLOAD ACTUALLY TEND TO MEAN, COMPLAIN ABOUT HAVING TO DO ANY WORK AT ALL, FOR THEY TOO OFTEN DO THINK THEY MERELY SHOULD BE PAID EVEN MORE FOR COMING TO WORK. THESE SAME RATHER UNDENIABLY TOO OFTEN INCOMPETENT, UNQUALIFIED, PRETENTIONS WORKERS , THESE BAD PERSONS STILL SEEM TO HAVE THE ENERGY TO SOCIALIZE WITH THEIR COLLEAGUES, TAKE LONG COFFEE AND LONG BREAKS, TO DO THEIR OWN BUSINESS ON THE SIDE.
These people, the same persons and the bad persons, managers who now hired them too firstly now still are are all career incompatible and they should be clearly encouraged to find work elsewhere, to find work they like to do, such as being on social aid?
The lack of DECENT OUTPUT is too often a false excuse for the whole system’s malaise the mostly bad, pretentious supervisors.
Recently a supervisor went for a month long holiday and the medical workers all stopped working hard, started to play around, started to waste their time as I saw firsthand. That was the bad effect of having no good supervisor in place to to replace him too.
ONE CAN BE SURE THAT WHEN YOU GET A BAD MANAGER THE HOSPITAL OR THE OLD AGE HOME WENT SOON DOWNHILL..
A bad provincial government management, this sorry excuse for a government, plus a bloated, bad executive health authority administration always spells a medical disaster! The lack of experienced medical staff is too often due to the fact that most anyone with the valid experience and qualifications has found a better paying job elsewhere? Replaced now by “Novice staff”? being paid the minimum training wage while the people managing the homes, hospitals are often still taking their long paid vacations too.
A person was lying in a convalescent home for months and most of the nurses still did not know what his basic sickness was, for they did not care, they did not take an interest, or bother to talk to him, to get to know him, they were too busy to do that but when you start asking the nurse a question about her personal life, such as where she lives, etc.,, she will start to talk to you about it for hours on the job now too..
Here is what I find amazing, I live in one of the largest cities in Canada and in the local hospitals I still rarely can find, and talk to a really competent dietician, dermatologist, or pharmacist. TOO MANY GENERAL PRACTITIONERS DOCTORS ARE NOT COMPETENT DRUG DOCTORS, OR DOCTORS OF INTERNAL MEDICINE. Convalescent homes tend daily now to dispose loads of pills to their seniors and yet they tend to not have an adequate pharmacist or doctor on their staff to check the pills side effect, as I have recently even found out firsthand too.
I am the health guardian of my 87 year old father who is also a ward of the province of Quebec, for my father has an incurable disease. My father requires also pain Killers every 4 hours as prescribed by the good Geriatric doctor Rois of the Verdun Hospital. Now it would have been nice if he got them.I generally have been with my father as his bedside at least 8 hours per day, in the Convalescent homes and hospitals. So I witness firsthand the too often the medical realities, actual doctors and nurses performances now too. My very senior father has an incurable, painful disease and he needs proper pain management in Hospitals, old age homes and rather often he still does not get it. On Sunday my father had been admitted to the Montreal Verdun hospital for 2 reasons.. Difficulty in swallowing and also skin rash that was dramatically spreading on his legs and now 4 days later not one single doctor had addressed the rash, because skin specialists are rare in hospitals these days too… and the family doctors are not competent to deal with the infections which have increased in size even since then .
Now this evening Monday June 21, 21010 my father was admitted to the Verdun Hospital for a blood transfusion, since he is anemic. My father has had now three nurses so far looking after him at this emergency ward, the first two nurses were excellent, professional and they did their job. The 3rd one was a bad joke, she was too busy have a good time for 2 hours giggling with her nursing associates in the nursing cubical in front of my father even, where I was there with him all day now too. She missed his 8 pm pain session and when I confronted the nurses present there they had replied she was going to give all his pills at one time. How will she give the oxycodone pain pills all at one time? I suggests that if these bad nurses do not want to work that they rightfully now go on social welfare now ASAP instead.
What has also also upset me is that I have to repeat myself to the doctors and nurse, because when the shift changes the verbal communications is lacking, and because doctors and nurses especially it seems are still poor listeners, so I have to repeat myself to each of the new personal what my father problems and needs are. And yet they all do still seem to for get about it, out of sight often next means out of mind. This problem is escalated cause there seems to be a new nurse every shift instead of having a continuity of the same nurses during the whole week.
What also complicates matters is that my father continually gets 2 separate pain killers, and the too often inadequate nurse generally tends to give out one and forgets the other.
and speaking of pain management … here is what I too have clearly noticed other peoples real pain does not bother too many medical staff cause it is not their own, and so they still do not care to do much about it. Neglecting to provide proper medical care, pain killers to a sick senior is still a prosecutable criminal offence.. So heavenly minded and no earthly good still too. Too many nurses I have encountered are busy playing doctors instead of giving out the pills, if they want to be a doctor go to a medical school for 12 years first.
Since when are medical professionals more ethical over any other professionals? Here is an undeniable fact of life.. crime, corruptions, thefts, bribes too often exist.. in all areas of endeavors, enterprises, businesses too.. but what I have often wondered why there seems to be very few crimes committed in the Medicare fields.. now very few crime, abuse cases are even reported Canada wide, Quebec included.. abuses in an area that has some of the largest costs and too often too little supervisors as well now too.. when I know that even medical doctors have abused their research budgets.. and we had the major ehealth abuses revelations in Ontario too.
Capital Health uncovers $170K ‘discrepancy’ CBC – Nova Scotia’s largest health authority has fired one of its business office employees and called for a police investigation after an internal audit revealed a financial “discrepancy” of nearly $170,000. This is not the first time there have been financial discrepancies in Nova Scotia’s health authorities. In April, a Nova Scotia man pleaded guilty to defrauding three health boards of nearly $400,000. Cary Lee Hollett, 42, will return to court July 21 to be sentenced in that case.
Realize this also that the present Montreal mayor admits to all that he knew about major city hall corruptions about a decade ago, but till yet has not done anything about it.. and what else and who else now too? Crime does not go away on it’s own. It is no big surprise that Montreal is still full of inadequate, pretentious civil and public servants, tax evaders, liars, thieves, con artists but what has also now not been a surprise is how lazy still the Montreal police themselves are too often are when you report a crime to them. They too do find false reasons not to look into the matter rather too often still.
One of the most common remarks we tend to hear often is that there is always a shortage of money to pay our medical, civil and public servants too but us paying more money to bad workers and their too often bad supervisors who rather should be all fired is still firstly a big unacceptable absurdity of putting more money into money bags full of large holes. And since when do we continue to reward the criminals?
NOW I HAVE HEARD ALL KIND OF REASONS WHY THE BAD EMPLOYEES WERE, ARE SUPPOSEDLY JUSTIFIED IN NOT DOING THEIR WORK PROPERLY BUT SOME HOW THE EXCUSES ALL APPEAR VOID WHEN COMPARED WITH THE OUTPUT OF THE GOOD WORKERS.

Still mostly pretentious Governments health administrators are still themselves too often ignorant of what it means to work in a hospitals, even about the medical and personnel inadequacies and the staff, patient’s related stresses now too, and what it takes even to eliminate unnecessary waits for all types of medical care in the last many decades too. Provincial governments. Hospitals too are not only too often pretentious but too often still do lie when they claim to be fully equipped to handle readily all medical problems in Montreal too. All provincial governments must “meaningfully address” procedures falling outside the five priority areas of diagnostic imaging, sight restoration, joint replacement, cancer radiology and cardiac care for far too many Canadians still experience long waits for their needed medical care and they often are kept in the dark about the wait they can expect to face. Emergency centers now at Hospitals are geared to check for heart problems and cancer mostly, immediately through blood tests, medical tests but not much else it seems. Hospitals rely on even too often pretentious, incompetent nurses, medical students, interns mostly for the initial screenings it seems rather than on the senior, experienced doctors too. And more more than half of all patients wait longer over medically acceptable times for other non major medical problems as well, even before anyone even starts an acceptable treatment. Major strides are still very much needed to be made overall not just in the five priority health-care areas including a broader range of specialties.

They do not raise questions the answer of which is above their capacities (Ps 130). The blue-collar worker is very unlikely to have any illusions about the quality of his work: If a carpenter makes a set of drawers that does not close, he knows he has done a bad job. If the food prepared by a cook is unpalatable, the culprit knows that he should go back to cooking school. If a tailor makes a suit that is much too tight for the person who has ordered it, he knows that he is a bad tailor. If a car does not work after a mechanic made repairs, the customer cannot be mistaken in telling him that he is a bad mechanic. Blunt, tangible results are more eloquent than words.

Re: Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux Alain Poirier
With the foreknowledge, suggestion of the Liberal Quebec Premier Jean Charest Government, I have firstly, firsthand rightfully detailed from the start of this year, to major news editors, Ministers, elected representatives as well as posting it on the internet, to the consternation of the medical workers my own much too mammy personal experiences of the unacceptable, too often pretentious, poor medical services towards the senior persons being provided in the major English speaking Montreal hospitals such as the Royal Victoria Hospital Montreal General Hospital, Verdun Hospital and the Montreal West Island Lake Shore Hospital plus the services at the Convalescent Hospital at Dorval, Quebec Maison Herron, Montreal Verdun Manoir Verdun.
Needless to say I had not only also encountered unacceptable abuses, extra billing scams as well, plus a scam by the Quebec government to forcefully make rich seniors, patients pay a significant costs towards their stay in convalescent homes or hospitals now too. I have clearly next undeniable also discovered by their responses to my thousands of emails now too that the Conservatives cabinet ministers even those looking after seniors, Medicare are just as inadequate, pretentious, indifferent to the ends, care of seniors as the Liberals now themselves wren, are as well. None of this is still acceptable.
Now with there being a definite shortage of Hospital and convalescent homes spaces as well I would like you to investigate why a wealthy senior, who has recovered from her major sickness is being still kept against her will in room of Montreal Manoir Verdun, especially when this space can be clearly freed for someone else.

Subject: PROFESSIONALS.. WHAT A JOKE.. « The non conformer’s Canadian Weblog Bad MPS as well now..
Attention Quebec, Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux Alain Poirier
Both the French and English speaking Montreal hospitals are undeniably too often pretentious, inadequate and mismanaged still too, all as simple as that too. Self regulation by doctors is just more unacceptable masturbation too..
Medicare in Canada, Quebec is too often a joke.. One day at the Hospital. 1/3 of the employees actual time is on lunch, supper, coffee, rest breaks. A hospital is not a place for employees to have a good time, to socialize on the job with their friends and to visit the other medical staff. Doctors even often make false assumptions about the patient’s sickness that are not scientifically based, personal opinions explain why you can see 5 doctors and receive 5 different diagnosis too often now too. Nurses themselves often to me do admit they do not read in detail patient’s charts, files nor do they follow all the medical prescription schedules as well.. Managers and Ombudsman tend to be a pretentious service. I told one nursing manager to stop playing around and get back to work and she said she was going to file a grievance report against me, I rightfully repeated my request to her.. stop playing and get back to work. It is not my duty is a common excuse why things now also are not being done.. Very sick Patients diapers are changed when the staff feel like it too often.
I too have witnessed, detailed many times on the net too that here in Montreal’s English speaking Hospitals or in the French speaking ones that there is too often the neglect of sick people still, very poor medical services provided by too many bad medical professionals, Doctors, Nurses, and hospital administrators, ombudsman as well, to the sick patients caused by the Professionals own neglect, failure to provide adequate medicine, medical care and even if it is only to one senior, one elderly person, it is still a criminal act too.
In the too often fake superficial pretentious poorly managed medical system, where the bad doctors and bad nurses, often ostrich like too, tend to often run around hurriedly in circle too often just like a chicken with it’s head cut off there the very sick senior patients, tend to have to return to the hospital many times to hopefully eventually get their problems looked after and thus unacceptable, undeniably wasting the hospital’s resources, tax payers money in the process. This undeniably has been so also now in my father case the last few years now too even at the Montreal, Lakeshore and Verdun Hospitals. All even cause the medical personal did not take the proper time, effort to do a full decent job the first time. And how about a certain kind of medication what is the negative side effects. No matter how great the health care professionals may be involved with your family , your own advocacy for your patient in the fast-paced health care environment is critical. “this doctor/nurse deals with these situations all the time, so they know how to handle it much better than I do…” is a myth, we get often 3rd class doctors, nurses too. “About a third of patients over age 70 experience hospital delirium, and the consequences can be serious, delaying a patient’s recovery and even leading to placement in a nursing home.”
As You are aware Montreal is now divided into poorly managed regional health care regions encompassing a pretentious health care, as the regional Ombudsman of the Verdun Hospital, Montreal, Quebec, told me today face to face that since adequate medical health care is not a mandatory service, but a public optional services, it explains why many sick persons at these perverse hospital too have even this year been sent home not properly provided for medically still today. the perverse Verdun Hospital ombudsman she needs to reared the doctors Hippocratic Oath is as well as the Canada Health l care act too. It is also not an option that she fired replaced now, it is still mandatory as well.
In comparison the smaller better Montreal LaSalle Angrignon hospital it rather tries harder, and sends patients elsewhere temporarily to help them as I have detailed now too.
It is still amazing that the Quebec health and social services minister, especially even my local Lieberal elected member of the Quebec Legislature now too as well, as well as the Justice Minister and the police too they all has still to properly act on the matters of the criminal abuse of a senior even to reply adequately, properly to one of one of my many letters to them and when will they? Do they want more bribes or what?
A very sick and likley dying grumpy old man lying in a hospital bed today in the Montreal Verdun Hospital was asking me what the loud noise in the Hospital hallway was all about, it was the Hospital ward, working floor social club having a good time flirting with each other, talking, joking around with each other in fact. No wonder hospital employees tend to be too often so ineffective still.
I asked today the new young nurse on duty looking after 10 patients if she had read each patient’s file and all of their sicknesses details, especially their pills required. She admitted she had not for likley it would take all her shift just to read that and she would have no time to look after the patients. When you consider that old and sick persons take over a dozen pills each day, and some pills are taken at various times of the day you would admit it is a full time job just distributing the pills never mind carrying out any other nursing duties.
Some of the sickest patients come through the emergency room, triage floor so really how is it even appropriate to have any young, inexperienced nurse merely in training there at all now too?
One thing we all should have known by now in Canada from the bad RCMP was that their managers were as bad as the bad, lying no good police officers. Sadly this type of scenario is reaped in other police forces, civil and public services, hospitals now as well. Canada the last 50 years had also not even been innovative in the management fields. Statistics Canada has found that Canada’s police force expenditures grew for the 12th consecutive year, to about $11-billion, or $344 per capita. About 1,800 new officers were added, the third-largest annual jump in the past 30 years. The provinces adding the most new officers were Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia. In a recession too.. No one cares to manage the bad cops or make them work effectively, efficiently still.. so they sock it to the taxpayers again and again..
A new way of better management of Nurses and doctors is definitely needed here as well.
In Montreal unlike in Toronto the Bus drivers tend not to be held accountable for any personal wrong doings.. this approach WRONGFULLY TENDS ALSO to be applied to all of Quebec’s civil and public servants, at the federal, provincial, municipal levels, even the police, doctors and nurses included. https://postedat.wordpress.com/2010/06/09/the-workers-who-complain-that-many-errors-are-caused-by-the-work-overload/

CANADA IS A LAND OF IDOLS, THERE ARE IDOL WORSHIPPERS EVERYWHERE. Rock stars, Musicians, Professionals – pastors, police, lawyers, engineers, accountants, doctors, nurses, etc., who now are often worshipped, bowed down to.

Canada not only has a two tiered Medicare system that favours one group of citizens over the other too often but it also has a two tired justice system that favours one group of citizens over the other too. These preferred, privileged groups are allowed to have their own self regulating bodies, standards enforcements, all meaning the covering up bodies that tend to dispense token, pretentious justice now too, a fact we often have illustrated by the police, RCMP, doctors and Nurses now too. Sad isn’t it in a supposedly progressive, liberal, democratic nation.
As you and your love ones tend to grow older, you tend to have more involvement, with doctors, nurses, hospitals, emergency wards, old age homes and convalescent homes as well. I do have a personal great respect for competent, qualified doctors, and we cannot exist without them. Not all of them are competent clearly now too as many of us do know and explains why we often get a second medical opinion, diagnosis. The same fact is true with nurses.
It is undeniable that I have too often this ear seen new immigrants who cannot speak French being abused by French only speaking Quebec nurses. Specifically on the evening of June 30, 2010 at 4:30 pm on the 7th floor of Montreal Manoir Verdun, a very elderly clearly distraught oriental person in my presence was complaining to the on duty Nurse in English that his night pajama’s were missing. This senior evening nurse on duty next laughed at him and then replied she could not speak English so she could not understand him and she thus did nothing about it too.
I have often encountered Nurses involved directly in patient care in hospitals, old age homes and some are really good, rare too, but too many are really bad. I am often surprised how too many Nurses think they are big shots and do often demand more money, a bigger salary for the much too little good they really do too. Now today I was lied to again by a Nurse. I was complaining to a senior nurse in the convalescent home that last night my very ill father did not get a sleeping pill. She said that last Wednesday she had even given him a sleeping pill and he still woke up in the middle of the night. That was a clear lie for last Wednesday my father was not in the nursing home but in the Hospital all last week. I am too often lied to by the both young and older Nurses who seem to have a great need to be shown as always being right, that they have done the right thing. When you consider most of us even undeniably do lie every ten minutes, it should be no surprise that too many nurses now are also major liars. Here is what I also know for sure also that a doctor gives a pain prescription, the nurses do too often interpret the prescription to suit their own desires, preferences and also the nurse reply to me often that they now cannot increase the dosage specified but they can and do often now reduce the prescription dosage, even by not giving it to the patient cause it interferes with their personal desire to do the minimum amount of work possible too often too. Nursing standards have certainly been lowered the last few decades and not rather raised. One thing that often disturbs me is doing a time- work study on the acts of a typical nurse supervising a very sick patient, I simply measure how much time in an 8 hour shift do they actually spend time in looking after the good welfare of the patients,, and how much time is spent on personal breaks, coffee, etc., as well.. Sometimes I find it actually impossible to comprehend that the nurses are even being paid for the bad job they have been too often doing.
I AM AN UNBELIEVABLE BELIEVER IN “SEEING IS BELIEVING”, WHAT I WITNESS MYSELF, SEE IS THE REALITY, AND SO IS MY FATHER. WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET, AND HOW THEY DO TREAT ME IS GENERALLY HOW THEY OFTEN STILL DO TREAT THE OTHERS TOO. What I too often have seen too many selfish, self centered Nurses do still is mostly to put their own desires, goals, such as coffee breaks, laziness, more money ahead of the patients’ good welfare. Sad. My very senior father has an incurable, painful disease and he needs proper pain management in Hospitals, old age homes and rather often he still does not get it.
I am also even as of recently again directly surprised as to how little medical knowledge they the Nurses tend to have, and how they tend not to be able to do most anything without the doctor too. I have tried to have a serious discussion on real, important medical issue with too many of them, but have failed for they tend to be mostly medically and computer illiterate, and I am no medical doctor myself, just an ordinary citizen. They do lack even the most basic medical, health, dietary knowledge, as I often find out too, and yet they are too willing to challenge doctors, and try to overturn the doctors written prescriptions, diagnosis as well.
In Canada Nurses as well are clearly too often undeniably too mismanaged and pretentious services and pretentious management is generally the way things are still done: for the last few decades too now. While clearly the patients in Hospitals, nursing homes, tend to be sick often now still even seven days a week, 24 hours a day, the nursing staff clearly as a whole are not adequate 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Now in a typical medical facilities there tends to be at least 3 types of classes of Nurses and related services being provided. The main day shift of Nurses tend to be the generally the one the best, offering the best, first class services. But even here there tends to be a mixture of both very high caliber workers and also some very bad ones too. The second shift of after noon and evening shift, services tend to be the one next composed of second class nurses, those who do generally themselves do offer a less substantial services. And next the late night and weekend nurses tend to be composed mostly of third class nurses, the undeniable worst, poorer Nurses, workers services being offered. The Nursing supervisors themselves tend to place the unwanted, the least desirable nurse for the late night and weekend shifts.
7 medical Questions to Protect Elderly Patients in Hospitals, old age homes
1. Do the nurses and doctors routinely screen for or identify high-risk repeat sick patients? Or do they not bother, care to at all still?
2. How does the hospital deal with the patient’s severe pain if it develops? Replied indifferently by saying it is not their pain, not their concern, not their job, but that of another department’s..
3. What does the hospital really do to keep patients from becoming disoriented? Let’s a junior incompetent nurse deal with it..
4. What policies are in place to make sure patients get adequate sleep? and/or Prescriptions filled.. pretentious ones…
5. If my family member needs a urinary catheter or other bedside interventions, how does the hospital decide when to remove them? When the patient complains or gets an infection?
6. Will the physicians and pharmacy staff review my family member’s medications often to identify medications that increase a negative side effect risk? Not likely!
7. How effective is the patient’s complaint procedure? Ha ha ha..
Often you’ll hear nothing but gripes and complains about their bosses, their superiors, their parents and the government, nothing about blaming themselves or looking towards constructive solutions to their so called problems
Readmission into the hospital after surgery or another procedure is extremely common, costly and time consuming. Since it is one of our main priorities to keep our clients healthy and living at home rather than in the hospital, article from The New York Times as it provides great tips for hospital checkout and avoiding readmission. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/06/19/health/19patient.html?_r=1&ref=health
In 2009, The New England Journal of Medicine reported “one in five Medicare patients returns to the hospital within 30 days of being discharged.” Dr. Mark V. Williams, who worked on this study, suggests that part of the issue is due to the fact that doctors place much of their focus on the admission process, when the patient is most sick. When the patient leaves the hospital, they often have more medications and treatments to worry about than when they first entered. Some doctors suggest that this problem may also occur because it may benefit the hospital financially for patients to be readmitted.

California’s nursing disciplinary system is disgraceful. The state currently does not have a standardized method of monitoring suspensions or firings of registered nurses. The major nursing unions in California, opposed a bill for, primarily, a mandatory reporting clause that requires all employers to notify regulators about any Nurses firings for serious violations, such as gross negligence or physically harming a patient. California’s Board of Registered Nursing recently discovered that 3,500 registered nurses have been disciplined in other states. http://historypro67.wordpress.com/2010/06/28/nurses-gone-wild/
Canadian health care ranks second to last compared with seven industrialized nations, according to a recent report by a private U.S. foundation that monitors and researches international health-care systems. The Commonwealth Fund studied the health-care systems of Canada, the U.S., Australia, Germany, the Netherlands, New Zealand and the U.K., and found that only the American system ranks lower than Canada’s. http://www.canada.com/sports/2010wintergames/Canada+health+care+system+better+only+than+America+Report/3200336/story.html
It is still a criminal act now for any doctor, nurse, hospital administrators, medical supervisor not to provide medical care to any seniors. How many have been prosecuted for this in the last year?

…ever notice that the medical personnel, COPS of all persons who should know better do still smoke as well… not just pot, or are alcohol impaired

Courage to change the things I can starts with admitting the truth to oneself
Not just in Churches, amongst the police, politicians, civil and public servants, I have never seem so many lying, mental people in one place like I have amongst the medical workers I have dealt with this year in in Hospitals, convalescent, old age homes who really do delude themselves too often about their self importance and the positive role they are functioning in.
When a medical professional cannot see what they are doing now is simply so wrong they themselves do now need real professional help too.
Narcissistic, selfish, self centered Mental Disorders too evident now even in many of the so called medical Professionals leads these persons to dwell in self-absorption, fantasy, illusion, where she or he has exaggerated claims to talents, importance, or specialness, manifesting evidence of a need for constant admiration from others, a lack of empathy for all others, persistent in this too, have rigid personality traits and coping styles, clearly inflexible, do show a hypersensitivity to any criticism , defeat or negative realities thus they rather are pathological in denial by the their falsity, contrived replacement of the truths which they still must face eventually . These SEVERE PERSONALITY disorders are generally personally ongoing too leading to more impaired social and/or occupational functioning and can make it difficult to pinpoint a clear dividing line between their pathology and their so called normality. Most of these people with their personality disorders may not perceive that there is anything wrong with their behavior and thus they are not motivated to change it. It is important to note that these personality disorders are considered to have their onset in late adolescence or early adulthood and they alone are responsible for it too.
One’s false denial can be an ACTIVE disregard for facts and circumstances or a more subtle expression of ones unreal personal preferences, their fanatsy.
Denial, it is very very common when many an individual, even amongst so called professionals, even in pastors now included, are asked to repent of their own wrong doings.
