I did that yesterday to another forum member because I wasn't thinking and forgot about one of their conditions. I feel just horrible about it but, I'm also nearly exhausted from my other stresses that my natural empathy is fizzling out. Talk about a feeling of numbness. It's as if that part of my brain wants to shut down. I can't believe that I made such a reckless mistake and on a mental health forum of all places! Maybe I'm not who I think I am. I'm just so tired. I WANT to feel the full magnitude of the shame and empathy but, my brain hurts. It feels like a warn out muscle on the left side. I feel so terrible about what I did but, it's in my logic perception because my emotional centers are going down.
To that person, I just want to say again "I'm so sorry if I hurt or triggered you in any way!" It wasn't intentional. I swear by everything I hold dear! 
Please accept my humble apologies.

I had someone lash out at me for opening up. I can see an intent to shake me up, but it really hurt. Were he to apologize, I'd feel better about our relationship. But you may need time to figure things out on your own, because I also had a friend who'd be apologetic, yet it'd be a switch between apology and anger, all the time.
