1♦
You don't want to open this hand 1NT. You have 18 HCP. You promised 15 to 17 HCP when you open 1NT. No more, no less.
Plus you are unbalanced. You promise a balanced hand when you open 1NT. Sometimes you can lie a little bit depending on whether or not your rebid would be a worse lie but here you don't want to lie about two things.
