She stressed on ‘CAPS’ where C stood for Contain Control of your lives and take responsibility of yourself , A stood for Assertiveness, (being assertive is our right), P stands for support system (family , friends ). To have a good support system we need to build good relations with our beloved one’s, friends, neighbours and colleagues.
