cms... welcome and I noticed that you didn't even allow an hour between your first two posts! LOL it does take us a bit of time to reply... if you want a faster response, you can also try sitting in the chat room... well maybe that will be faster...

anyway. .. I have had a similar problem in the past. My T had to break me of it, and I have done a good job of removing the "need" to apologize when it isn't warranted.

It stemmed from a type of insecurity, I think. I always meant well, but was never quite sure of how someone "took" what I said. I would also say I was sorry after I raised my voice, or interrupted someone... all times when everyone was doing the same thing... like at a brain-storming...

It was also often the first thing that would come out of my mouth if I was going to say something I was unsure of how it would be accepted. duh me!

It wasn't an obsession with me though, not in that sense, not forced into every conversation or such.

Why would you want to reduce your medication when it obviously helps you with this???
