Standing Up For Yourself

I sometimes have trouble standing up for myself. I find that if I figure out what I want from the other person and practice a non-confrontational statement of that need, I can stand up for myself comfortably.

I really think my baby is just fine. While this whole situation has raised my (already admittedly high) anxiety level to an intrusive point, the anxiety stems from my somewhat-wretched ability to stand the fuck up for myself and a tendency to shy away from confrontation.

If you're putting everyone above your own needs, you may need some assertiveness training for women. Not taking care of yourself is similar to not standing up for yourself, and it can't be good for anybody. Neither is being a people pleases.
