anyone ever gone to self assertive group

I did last year, I found it so interesting, I was nervous at first but found out that ever other person there was much the same, you could hear a pin drop when we were asked to stand up and introduce ourselves and say a few words. Thankfully when that was over everyone relaxed and at the end of first session you had to put your hand up to get a word in:lol

Re: anyone ever gone to self assertive group

No I haven't Jean but would like to go to one. I let some people walk over me, interrupt me, use me in fact. My own fault I know but would love to be able to practice assertiveness in a safe place.

I say go for it...

Re: anyone ever gone to self assertive group

So you think it would be appropriate then? What happens there?

Re: anyone ever gone to self assertive group

I'm generally easy going, but can be assertive if necessary and throw a real hissy fit ... typical Taurus. I prefer avoiding conflict if I can.

I don't need any of these groups or meetings to get back on track, I got an assertive Wife and she don't be long about setting me right when I stray from her chosen path
