Sulking is not the same experience for everyone and sometimes people do not recognize it in themselves. This book explains the four components of sulking and suggests how to combat it. It spells out the principles of healthy self-assertion and considers the major obstacles and how to overcome them. This book will be appropriate for sulkers themselves and those trying to live or communicate with a habitual sulker. It advises what to do when faced with withdrawal, refusal to talk, and refusing to admit there's anything wrong. Examples from people who have broken the sulking cycle are included, together with exercises to help the reader identify sulking behaviour.
