Shame and guilt are two intrinsically human emotions often manifested in social interaction. These emotions are important emotional components of psychological development and are positioned in a relationship with the self. They coexist within the cognitive faculty of the individual and reinforce each other. They are interrelated, and one triggers the other. They are not mutually exclusive, in the sense of either/or, but rather intertwined. It is difficult to dichotomize these two emotions because they are constantly shifting and overlapping and are always in relatedness with cognitive thinking.
