249 - Sharing shame.

It helps a person to share shame with someone who is comfortable with and accepting of their own shame because when we share shame it will be felt by the listener. If the listener is not accepting of their own shame they are likely to unconsciously transfer the shame back to the sharer. One way to transfer the shame back to the sharer is for the listener to try to fix the sharer.
