I had never thought about the 'I'm sorry' syndrome from a neuroscience point of view - so Interesting!
I am guilty - but for me, it's cultural (or at least partly :-) In South Africa everyone says it all the time. I never really noticed till emigrating to 🇨🇦
My colleagues used to make fun of me in my first Canadian job, as I would apologize to the garbage can, if I inadvertently bumped into it 😂
Even my kids remark on my compulsion to say 'sorry'. Your article is a great explanation - thanks 😊
Thanks Magdelena 🙏

You are absolutely correct! There is a cultural aspect in it for sure!
This is very helpful, Magdalena. At work, home, and in the community, I struggle as the Apologetic Person.
