<p>Sharing Intimacy explores the dynamics of self-disclosure-the process by which one person allows himself to be known by another-to reveal the "masks" we all wear and to show how we remove them in forming friendships, marriages and other social relationships.The authors investigate the connection between self-disclosure and mental health, showing how nondisclosure of one's self or too much disclosure too soon are related to symptoms of mental disease.</p>
