Answer 1

The answer is co-rumination.

Co-rumination is a psychological situation where two or more individuals come together to discuss about their similar problems without trying to solve the problems that they are facing. It is not as positive as self-disclosure, which also involves an individual having the courage to say what talk about their dreams, fears, goals, and many more.
