Shame is a self-conscious emotion marked by an intensely negative self-evaluation. It is exhibited by an individual upon realizing that she/he has violated an important (usually social) norm. Shame can be a source of emotional distress leading to social withdrawal and depression, with a significant negative impact on quality of life. In Parkinson’s disease (PD), shame is rarely addressed

The article lost me. I have no idea why anyone would feel shame for having PD, or why they would tolerate any one shaming them. Is anyone out there ashamed because they have PD.?
No I did not think so.
I answered someone the other week that felt shame because she had a shake to her head. I told her about the time that I was accused of mastabating at a crowded bus stop, because I had my hand in my trousers pocket!!!!!!!. I was embarrassed at the time but after I calmed down I realised that is what it looked like to the general public. So now NOTHING embarreses me.
