We end up over-apologizing for everything. This is our attempt to avoid more conflict and backlash. Apologizing also helps defend against disappointing others. But being in the habit of apologizing sets us up for low self-esteem and other negative affects. This episode looks at the ‘sorry syndrome’, which can develop after being around toxic people for a while, as we take on more and more of their responsibilities.
