Things Autistic Adults Often Apologize For (that they shouldn’t have to)
Ascent Autism
"The horse was saddled. The saddlebags contained...seventy thousand dollars...Captain, this is damned stupid."
"I know, sir," said Carrot. "They are the facts, sir."
"But they're not the right facts! They're stupid facts!"
"I know, sir. I can't imagine His Lordship trying to kill anyone."
"Are you mad?" said Vimes. "I can't imagine him saying sorry!"

Offended? Good.
Thank you, Alex, for dragging these racist organizations for filth, especially the BAFTA that wasn't an apology. If you are offended by what she said, then good!!
just saw a post rebloggd by a mutual that said "ppl who apologiz more than once are immensely selfish & sick in the head" and..... the post wasnt joking?
ppl really dont realize what its like growing up in an environment where u have tourette syndrome & OCD & too much trauma from workin with doctors to work with doctors.... i had involuntary behavior coming out of my body constantly that tortured me and everyone else & my parents didnt understand & I MYSELF didnt understand and all i knew is i was a horrible person who was lucky not to be in jail.
i wuld apologiz repeatedly becuz i know im harming the other person and i dont want them to think im doin it with a desire to torture them. i dont want to harm them. i dont want them to hate me. i dont want them to put me in jail.
the pendulum has swung too far. we need to be nice again to ppl who reflexively apologiz due to flashback of pain in their mind.
Saying I'm sorry...
... as an apology
... as a confession
... as a manipulation
... as a truce
... as a last attempt
... as an ask for forgiveness
... as a sign of respect
... as a duty
... as a goodbye
Saying I'm sorry…
angrily
desperately
anxiously
quietly
insolent
guiltily
unapologetic
passionately
honestly
