Regret is disliking a decision you earlier took. This means that you have a tendency of doing things with limited rational thinking, and then overthinking about an activity you do.
The occipital lobe is the one that fills for rationality, by visualizing fear post-event, which activates the Amygdala, which triggers the flight-fight(SNS) response, thus leading to Sympathetic dominance. This lowers Serotonin, thus, cutting out the pre-frontal cortex inhibiting the Dopamine receptors. Thus by core, you will feel sad and depressed and would have to put effort to become happier. This will be elevated during any festivals, where your mood swing will elevate, due to higher Oxytocin, and lower dopamine.
This will result in subtle passive-aggressive behaviors, which will increase the cognitive dissonance, and break Left-Right Neural pathways, leading to a significant increase in body pain on the left side.
Also, SNS overdrive will increase anxiety as the cells become “tired” by epinephrine, leading to dehydration, and hence Digestion.
Therefore, people who often say sorry, regret a decision, or constantly regret life, tend to develop digestive problems very often. So, if you are one of those who are regretting all the time, and have developed digestion issues then, you may probably think to the way you are taking decisions and executing them.
