i need to apologize for lashing out at someone and for my mood swings, but i am not sorry for the way i ultimately felt. he hurt me and evoked a great deal of insecurity that drove me crazy and made me feel weak. just like my parents growing up.

but can anyone else me phrase this? idk. he told me to never "call or text him" after i lashed out at him and sorta dumped him at the same time.

If you're not sorry, why do you feel the need to apologise?

Just tell him that you are sorry that you lashed out, and that you feel hurt and insecure when he said/did whatever it was.

For me, when I yell at someone unneccesarily, I just say "I'm sorry for yelling at you, I should not have done that. I felt very upset/angry/etc... by what you said/did"
Thanks for this!

i am in the apoligising phase. I just get so mad and jab at people to make them hurt. I dont mean to, but when i am mad, i want them to feel as bad as they made me feel. Why do things have to change and make me feel bad about myself
Thanks for this!

with my bpd, I apologize only for bad behavior, not for how I feel or for what I thought I experienced with someone.

Today, I apologized to my therapist for sounding angry, but I also told her I felt abandoned when she arrive an hour late and did not answer my call to ask her when she would be coming.
