Assertiveness is the ability to communicate opinions, thoughts, needs, and feelings in a direct, honest, and appropriate manner. Assertiveness involves standing up for own rights in a manner that does not offend others or deny the rights of others. When one is assertive, there is more control over life. It is also less likely that other people will take undue advantage of them. This session is designed for those who are unable to assert themselves owing to lifelong unassertive practises and beliefs.

Schizophrenia is a debilitating disorder. The truly tragic fact is that the family members often suffer as much, if not more, from the behavioural & social symptoms that the patient is afflicted by. Much of the distress that the patient & the relatives \/ caregivers experience is on account of the interpersonal conflicts they have due to poor understanding of the reasons of the maladaptive behaviour.

Often, neither of the parties are to blame. But, both manifest frustration in their behaviour.This can often be alleviated, or prevented even, if the relatives are made aware about the nature of the illness, and the reasons for the altered thought process & the altered behaviour.\n
