 Hi. I’m Lynette from PanicAttackRecovery.com. We’re a collaboration of former sufferers who are helping those currently struggling with anxiety, panic attacks, and agoraphobia. However, anyone can benefit from our videos. One challenge for many people who have anxiety is learning to say no. We discussed this issue with a psychologist who ran a group for teaching assertiveness and he told us about an interesting experience he had with the group. One evening, all of the attendees were performing an exercise where the person next to them would ask them to do something. They were simply instructed to say no in reply to whatever the other person asked them to do. Many people had trouble doing this. Instead, they felt the need to also explain why their answer was no. This is interesting because the situation was a controlled group exercise and not a real-life situation. The important takeaway messages from this example are the following: First: Many people have trouble saying no. Period. Second: Many people feel the need to reveal additional information because they aren’t comfortable simply saying no. However, the problem is that by explaining themselves, they often give the other person making the request more of an opportunity to challenge their original response. In other words, explaining yourself makes it harder to say no in the end. Had you just graciously said no, that might have ended the discussion. We’re not suggesting that you should go through life simply saying no all of the time. However, if you have a problem being assertive in this regard, try practicing role-playing this suggestion with a friend.  By practicing this suggestion over time you will get better at it. Often anxiety sufferers can be helped by learning how to be gracefully assertive in their relations with others. By learning polite assertiveness, you can decrease your anxiety across several situations. We hope that you have enjoyed this video.
