To ask what the worst experience of your life Is??

[K1092902]

Having a fucking awful time right now- just one thing after another. Please someone help me put things in perspective

I am so sorry for all the heartache you have all experienced. Strong, courageous women . [Flowers]

I can't even bring myself to write down all the crap that happened to me and my family in 2016 - if I did so, it would be completely identifying and you'd probably never believe it anyway, it all sounds too far fetched to even be considered for a really bad soap script!In the space of 5 months, we had 4 completely life-altering things happen to us. Last year was definitely our "annus horribilis".
However, I just wanted to say to each and every one of you that it does get better, or more manageable. You will survive this and you'll probably even learn to not sweat the small stuff so much.

I have days when I hate the situation we've found ourselves in, I cry on an almost daily basis, I worry about what the future holds, but I have also learned to laugh at the absurd, to look for the positive in any situation and to appreciate the good things that can happen in life.

Please don't let these bad things define you - it's easier said than done, I know, but it does make life a little easier to bear.

I hope 2018 is better for you all....

Being bullied and tormented at school after telling a friend I had been groomed and sexually

Posted too soon.

groomed and sexually assaulted. She didn’t believe me and told everyone I made it up. I was being spat on and beaten up at school, called the worst names every day, isolated and had no support at home from my abusive and neglectful parents. I left school early and wrecked the best years of my life working in lap dancing clubs, abusing drugs and being in abusive relationships because that’s what I believed I was worth.

I’ve turned my life around but I’ll never get those years back and I have mental health isssues for life.

Having my younger daughter phone me telling me to get home quickly ( we were away for a few days for husbands birthday) to after a lot of persuasion tell me that her older sister had suddenly passed away she was only 26 . How we made the 3 hour journey home l will never know.

No matter what I have gone through nothing could match the anguish of those who have lost children. Mine are in their forties now and have children of their own. I am sitting in bed on Christmas morning feeling so very grateful.

Worst day of mine - two come to mind. First was morning of 9/11 or rather, as I was in Australia visiting my parents, the evening (I was breastfeeding DD and watching late night news when it came on). My husband worked two blocks away from the WTC at a well known financial services firm and I knew his bus from NJ stopped at the WTC at 8:45am. Thankfully he did make it out of there but I still have quite significant ongoing mental health issues related to that day.

Second was seeing my mum pass away in front of me a few weeks ago. She had a long term illness and we knew it was going to happen but it was such a raw thing that I don't think you can ever really be prepared for.

My sil died on my sons birthday ( a while ago now) Had a hard horrible life and couldnt get help from anyone, she chose not to reach out. We were not that close but i do miss her. I do feel her presense sometimes.
Sorry to everyone on here. Life can be so hard at times.

Being accused of a crime, and being told I could go to jail for 5 years. Losing my boys. Feeling powerless. Eventually Getting the boys back.

And then finally being told, by the authorities investigating, that the allegation was groundless, that I had been "victimised" by the school for the last 5 years.

I will never get over it.

Threads like this are good. They give perspective. Makes me realise that mine is nothing, compared to some people's.

Nearly dying in a car crash and losing 8 babies through mmc. It was prob worse than car crash in all honesty.
Sorry your having a hard time just now. Hopefully in time things will improve X

Where to start?
Loosing my virginity to my rapist, the PTSD that followed,
feeling the girl who was raised with me stomp on my head repeatedly and the subsequent 9 hours strapped to a back board fearing I'd never walk again. Still dealing with the ongoing issues as a result 7 years later and covered in self harm scars that won't fade.
Finding DS blue at 5am from choking on his own mucus. Thank fuck I know CPR.
Loosing my grandad and idol to stomache cancer.
Fearing that my abusive ex shook my baby girl.

Funny enough though the one moment when it finally clicked that no my little boy won't be like any of the other kids at school, that its uncertain if he will ever become independent or have his own life was the most upsetting.

I had a traumatic birth last October, my mum nearly died of sepsis at Christmas, she was diagnosed with bladder cancer in Feb and I had a miscarriage in Feb too. I'm 27 and to me those few months were the worst time of my life to date! Just one horrible thing after the other. It gave me really bad anxiety so much so that my hubby was ready for leaving in the summer (I was a nightmare to live with) we are back and stronger than ever now and hoping for a better 2018 with a new house and hopefully DC#2

for all.

I lost my previous career when I got pregnant due to discrimination. I sued and it took me more that three years to get back in my feet doing a similar job.

I wouldn't wish it on anyone, even though in hindsight it was a good thing,

Watching my Nan surrogate Mother die.

Plus horrendous stuff I've witnessed in my job (a nurse) that are WAY times a million worse than that.

I'm sorry things are not great for you atm OP

My 20yr old cat dying. I'm crying as I write this . She was with me during some truly shit times in my life

Having too resuscitate my son in the back footwell of our car on the way to a and e when he developed meningitis cos the 111 call handler thought I was just an anxious mum.
He has brain damage now.

I am so sorry for everyone's losses... so many of you have suffered so much and still keep going.

Mine has to be the day I got a phonecall from a doctor to work to tell me my mother had a brain tumour and there was nothing they could do. Many dark days around then but I think that was the worst moment.
