Guilt Test: Does Guilt or Shame Get in Your Way?

We all have feelings of guilt and shame from time to time. But sometimes these feelings become overwhelming, difficult to overcome, or interfere with our functioning. Guilt is defined as self-reproach for supposed inadequacy or wrongdoing. Shame is the long-term belief that who you are or what you have done is bad. Both guilt and shame are the result of emotional debt. Take this test to see where on the Emotional Debt Index you stand.
