Preferred term
guilt
Definition
- Guilt is the sense of having earned condemnation through transgression of the rules or through sinning. (Sin refers to being wrong, but it does not necessarily mean personal transgression.) Guilt and shame sometimes overlap, although most existential authors carefully distinguish the two. [Source: Dictionary of Existential Psychotherapy and Counselling; Guilt]
