PASSIVE VS. AGGRESSIVE VS ASSERTIVE

Passive (weak): Giving in and submitting to intrusions for fear of losing friends or attention.

Passive-Aggressive: Lacking confidence to confront a personal conflict directly -- instead using subtle sabotage to get back at a person. This sort of person tends to stab people in the back instead of directly confronting them with the problem.

Irrational beliefs: Several examples --

• I must be good at everything
• I feel everyone should like me a lot
• There is only one good way to do it
• It's my way or the highway (for you)
