Guilt Trip
It refers to that random wave of guilt or self-blame that hits you unexpectedly, often without any solid reason.
It's like your brain pulling up receipts from 2012 to ruin your mood in 2025.
I invented "GT" when I realised how often I’d randomly get hit by a guilt trip for the smallest things — like not replying to a text for 3 hours or eating something without sharing it with someone sitting next to me. It felt too dramatic to say “I’m overthinking” and too casual to say “I feel bad,” so I started saying, “bro I’m having a GT.”
It stuck. Now whenever something mildly emotionally chaotic happens and my brain decides to turn it into an existential crisis, I just say “GT mode activated.”
It’s short, dramatic, and honestly — very Gen Z.

"She’s been in GT mode all day after saying no to someone’s dinner plan."
Was literally brushing my teeth when a GT hit me about yelling at my mom last week.
