What is the definition or description of: inappropriate guilt?

In my experience: this happens when you do something appropriate and are made to feel otherwise, like being assertive and speaking up for yourself and then being accused of being insolent, brash or disrespectful. There are bigger version of this, like survivor's guilt. Catholics are good at instilling guilt, like when using birth control. Atheists would say this is inappropriate. This can be a value issue.
