I was married for three years with two beautiful children untill two months ago. My husband shook my baby girl and hit her in the head. She was brain dead and spent two weeks struggling in the P.I.C.U. before finally passing away. My husband is in prison serving a life sentence. Losing a child is traumatic, and I'm worried about how this will affect my son when he gets older. The betrayal from my husband- that I loved and trusted very much- made the situation much worse. I should say that I have learned A LOT from this experience, that everything happens for a reason, and that I really believe all things work to good for those who love the Lord. If you feel scarred about a traumatic experience PLEASE find someone who can help you- a counselor, friend with similar experience that you trust, or someone with a church. Emotional pains run deep and leave you with a lot of problems so please try and find peace- sometimes this is only possible with God...

My husbands addiction to drugs and causing us to loose everything. This is something that weighs heavy on my mind especially as a new mother when it happened. But I have much more to be greatful for now. and it has made me a much stronger person.

Death of a friend in high school.

My childhood wasted away because my mother is a drug addict. Watching relationships die because of it. Watching myself going into depression because of it. Watching my family turn their backs on me because they were scared to confront my mother.

Other kids making fun of me when i was little because i was way too shy and goofy, feeling alone and different... even if today i'm a comunicative guy with a good sense of humor, i still feel often insecure and inadequate. Sometimes i wonder how much i really changed since then.

At age 20, my wife cheated on me with my best friend. Then, she divorced me and married him. I lost my wife and my best friend all at once. After a decade of drugs, alcohol and many failed relationships I finally woke up and realized I had just wasted 10 years of my life and probably took another 10 years of good health away from it...all for making bad choices at a young age. Lesson learned: Wait until you are at least 25 -30 before entertaining the idea of marriage. BTW: She divorced my best friend, too.

The worst thing to happen to me is a very long and nasty story, one I assure you you would not like to hear and continues to this day sadly. It involves some abandonment, torturous cicumstances and overall misery. It wasn't exactly a picnic, but I am sure I shall learn some lessons from it or something

The past year.

I don't think I'd like to mention it because it sparks ALOT of sad memories and things of that nature, but it involved childhood and my parents. Things are better now, but if you were to ask me 10 years ago if my current situation would be such, I would not have believed it. Thankfully, I'm able to say that. And just for the record, I'm not sure that "worstest" is a word, Jennie. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong ;)

A great disappointment which I did not handle well altered the course of my life.

I was accused of a hideous crime that would have put me in prison for 25 years. I was suicidal during the time I was awaiting trial. I would rather be dead than in prison for something I did not do. I didn't get to see my daughters for 6 years. I was acquitted and my daughters are all grown now and I see them on a regular bases.

Getting smacked around with a metal pipe when I was a kid every day after Kindergarten. Then having that asshole grab me and french me before I even knew what 'kissing was' (Talk about love/hate relationships). Argh. Now I go to high school with him. Wonderful.

Instead of thinking about the worst thing that happened to me in my life, I'd rather say that everything that has happened to me has left it's mark. Both positive and negative.

I refuse to be scarred by anything. I sacrificed everything for my wife and even forgave betrayals... she ran away. I now consider her running away a wonderful gift and will start looking for a new wife the day teh divorce is final.

The death of my 3 month old grandson. I am not necessarily scarred, but my heart was broken for a very long time.

my 2nd marriage but i am slowly getting over it.

After reading what Shattered wrote, I... Well, here it goes. The worst thing that has ever happened in my life was the death of my first wife. She was my best friend in life for the 17 of my 34 years, up to that point. The divorce and disintegration of my second marriage and the separation between my two, very young, boys was bad. There is no legal way to prevent your wife from taking the children and moving home to mother. The 39 operations I had before age 18, for shunt revisions related to hydrocephalus were no picnic. The last year of unemployment, back aches and depression have been the pits, as well.

Being made fun of as a kid. I've always seen the world as having to be beautiful, thin and perfect. I myself was not that. I had freckles, was chubby, and clumsy. I grew up trying to hide myself from others. I deprived myself of an actual happy childhood and of teenage years. I never had a boyfriend in school, never went to any school functions, social events. Though now I'm a little better, have a wonderful boyfriend who's taught me to love myself before others can love me. I've traveled a little bit, overcoming some of my fears, and now work with the public for the most part. It still shows sometimes though, stuttering while I'm talking to a guest, a glimpse in the mirror during a bad hair day, and the worst ever, shopping for new outfits.

When i was caught by girlfriend with other girl in my car.

when i was 8 my next door neighbor called my mom and said that she had seen me molesting her son. of course because i was 8 and this woman was an adult, my mom believed her. 5 years later (i was almost 13) my mom asks me if i did or did not do what the neighbor said i did. i told her what i had said 5 years earlier. after this i become very depressed (i was diagnosed with clinical depression when i was 8 also) and i began cutting myself. this goes on for a couple months. finally i tell my parents. a couple months after that i come out of the closet to them. they tell me its a phase. the summer going into high school, i try to "make myself straight" by doing things with guys that im not happy about. this makes them mad. i begin cutting yet again (along with drinking and smoking) and then i cut my wrist.im 15 now. i still live next to that neighbor. maybe im just melodramatic, but everyday when i see her i hope something so horrible happens to her that it maybe will compare to the pain and mental torture she put me through and that i continue to go through.

My husbands son being killed by his mother (my husbands ex wife). I never had kids of my own, and I loved my stepson. Besides, it wounded my husband to the core of his heart. It made me look at women with a very jaundiced eye.

i was anally raped by my best friend. he had feelings that i didn't reciprocate & he got angry when i wouldn't have sex with him, so he held me down & raped me. i was 15. it left me with rectal scarring with will often split open & bleed. i'm 24 now. because of it, my boyfriend at the time started abusing me, calling me a slut & saying i deserved it while my rapist walked free because my mother was ashamed of her sexually active teenage daughter who wanted to be a boy. i've since forgiven all of it & am friends with him again. some people say that is foolish. i just have a very large amount of compassion for the people i care about & i don't believe he truly ever meant to hurt me.
