I apologize way too much for everything even for apologizing too much. Part of it is just who I am I guess, a guilty conscience cultivated by never feeling like I was good enough growing up, and being raised to believe my feelings must be apologized for as well, but I think it's also been further entrenched as an adult from working in customer service for so many years. I mean even now, answering emails from members, probably 80% of the responses I send every day begin with "I apologize for the inconvenience you have experienced" or in chat "I am so sorry that this happened to you" or whatever. H gets really aggravated at me for apologizing so much. "I know, I'm sorry I do that. Oops."
i don't know how to stop...
