How do you deal with your self esteem?

Also I'm doing a course at college called GOALS. We are learning about Assertiveness. I again are and I have known all along I am poor at this.

How do you increase your confidence to be assertive?

If your able to offer your thoughts it would be great. I'm really struggling with both aspects
Good on you for putting in the work and working with you social worker and independently with the book through this. Have you identified what has caused your low self esteem?

I have a friend who also struggles with self esteem, I’ll have to suggest the book- thanks!
