[QUOTE="fresh_42, post: 6454925, member: 572553"] But isn't co-suffering something else? As I understand it, it is the phenomenon that people living with someone who suffers, e.g. depression, alcoholism, etc. tend to show similar behavior, or at least suffer under the situation. Another word I am missing is "fremdschämen". It means that someone is ashamed for what someone else is doing, [U]too[/U] embarrassing to watch. This can happen watching a movie, or a real person. And it often happens on vacations. We all know these countrymen abroad who behave terribly, and we feel ashamed for them just because we have the same passport. [/QUOTE]
