Assertiveness/ confidence

I feel like I am always far too passive. I do what I can to appease others and not what I want. I lack confidence and assertiveness. Coupled with struggling socially and forgetting chores etc and all of this is really impacting my relationship.

My wife feels like she has to carry the burden and fight for the family e.g. with my sons needs. I feel like I do a lot at home but my overall issues are really.impacting it. As my personal life falls apart my confidence is even worse and I just find myself wandering through life just trying not to be a screw up

I don't know how to make myself better and be more

  • There should be assertiveness classes around, if not there's probably somethng online to help you learn to say NO to things and help you learn to set boundaires with other people. Once you learn to say no, experience some push back and stick with your NO, you will gain so much confidence, you might even feel able to suggest things you'd like to do
