Basically when I'm relaxed I act submissively but only when I'm on the alert I am assertive. It's like when someone asks you a math question out of the blue versus when you know you have to be ready for one.

Is this normal? Or should I try being more passively assertive?

This sounds like you might mean you are usually very passive but, when you're anxious, you are aggressive?
