How non-apologies can be a form of gaslighting—and how to make them stop

through means of verbal, written, and/or physical actions that causes the recipient to question their experiences and reality.

Sorry gaslighting, instead of silencing a rebuttal, actually creates a deeper issue. Any qualified medical professional will tell you to clean a wound thoroughly before bandaging and to follow up on the wound over time to ensure it is healing properly. Since recipients of this sorry gaslighting are not silenced, but rather psychologically harmed, users of the “I’m sorry you feel that way” language should consider asking themselves why they feel the need to provide this abusive response.and thoughtful enough to ask why, lies in the lack of self-awareness and self-inquiry to address control issues and avoidance of apologies.

If you are courageous, explore why you felt challenged, and the need to avoid the concern. Beyond any, is there any truth to the concern? Thoughtful people rarely bring concerns without substance, so what are you missing or not seeing in your interactions with this individual or group?
