How do I deal with controlling people?

Many people feel extremely frustrated and quite stuck in situations where they are being controlled and thus not getting their own way, be that with controlling parents, a controlling husband or a controlling mother.

And once over the initial shock, how about allowing ourselves to get a sense of what this statement offers: the opportunity to take self-responsibility and no longer play ball with controlling behaviours.

Their message reads: “You need to change your behaviour to change my experience of life.
