@cigar icon Wow! Brings to mind what happened to the Aluu 4. Thank God for your life, my brother! At least, you're alive to tell your side of the story. As for the girl, she'll get hers. That was darn to wicked!! |

After reading your posts, all I could murmur to myself is "this world is really wicked". What a way to start the year. I can't even think of any about myself, wish I could contribute. Nice therapeutical thread though. |

Hmm u are right kavey10, people can be very wicked. However, sometimes our calamities are born out of Retaliation. When people feel offended,they want to settle scores by all means not so that they can get back what they lost,but to make them feel better. This is the cause of Retaliation. 2 yrs ago,we were in campus, standing in front of our hostel one afternoon when all of sudden a guy threw acid on a girl s' face. She let out a loud scream in pain and within seconds, her attacker was no where to be found. Her face was disfigured,totally an eyesore and neither the school sickbay nor the teaching hospital could save her from passing on after a few weeks. I was like 'God,he has ruined her life forever, how dare he do such an awful thing'. I tried talking with my roomate who told me he learnt the girl was the attacker(graduate) 's fiance(undergraduate) but she coldly broke his heart and he refused to let her go free. My roomate wasn't really bothered,he didn't feel any sorry for her. He beleived she must have really got under her attacker 's skin. With time the truth surfaced-the attacker contacted HIV from his ex-fiance(victim) who concealed the truth of her HIV status from him. While being a traumatic tale, the trauma wasn't born out of wickedness. Retaliation is the driving force of the traumatic event. The attacker knew spilling acid at his offender 's face would'nt rid him of the viral infection,but he went ahead pulling the trigger anyway. WHY?,cos it helped him feel better,it lightened his heavy heart. It is Retaliation-Product of Anger mixed with passion. |

The day I woke up to discover my house was on fire and that the person sleeping next to me was in flames.I had to scream out my lungs for help. Sadly,we lost him. The rest of us made it without burns.(All thanks to God) I still have nightmares till date, especially on the anniversary of the event. |

I was in a traumatized state troughout my schooling period cos i didn't study d course i love most.i had more passion for chemistry while in secondary school,i was doing well in chemistry during dis period,dis made me to purse an ambition to study industrial chemistry in a university after secondary school.u know d problem? After gaining d admission for industrial chemistry,some of my step brothers dat have says in d family rose up and said industrial chemistry is not a good course, dat their is no job opportunity for industrial chemist,they just poisson my mind,u know me as a teenager then what do u expect,dey say i should study mechanical engineering and they convince my mother and my mother appeal to me to obtain another jamb,i forfeited d admission dat year.d most excruciating part is, it took me another 3years b4 i could get mechanical engineering,despite d fact dat i didnt like d course initially but just to fulfil all rightousness.but i thank God for everything.d fact still remains dat,my traumatic experience became aggravated each time i see some of my secondary school mates dat studied chemistry dat are doing very well or each time i come across anybody dat study d course dat doing very well,though mechanical is good,but i am not just fufiled by being prevented frm studying chemistry bc iam more passionable about d course.i strongly beleived dat; course is not d determinant factor to succed in life.i've come across millionairas dat study chemistry. |

It got me wondering, God, is it possible to be in love with someone yet treat them like a servant? The only thing that cheered me up was u didn't let him do d dumping as most girls would, u dumped him for good urself. u not forgiving him is easy for me to relate with. I suppose he should have realised his cruelty and apologised to u by now most especially as he is getting settled. Maybe u have a better boyfriend now,maybe u r still waiting for Mr. Right, whatever d case am truely sorry this guy nearly ruined u and i wish u happier days ahead. |

Sometimes people close enough to us, our best friend,relatives, betray us, blackmail us deliberately let us down yet we r forced to live with them incapable of demanding an apology or getting back at them. Whatever they do, we always need our family or friends. Back in the past i used to have a friend whose father was plain nasty drunkard, not the right attitude for a poor man, who need to do a lot of bricklaying to make ends meet, is it? With his mom out of question,his father dubbed him as an obstacle,a liability and parasite who is not in anyway useful. It didnt come as a surprise when we learnt his dad was wanted for stealing Cement bags but i was really taken aback to learn shortly after he sneaked out of his house one evening, d police came barging in arresting his Son, my friend who was unaware of his fathers sudden absence and demanding with threats for his old man 's whereabout. Not having any clue, he protested, pleaded and cried to be set free, having nothing to do with his father 's absence or cement bags but his pleas fell on deaf ears of furious policemen,tired playing hide and seek with a petty thief. After a whole day in cell suffering at d hands of cruel officers determined to physically beat the truth out of him,i decided a friend was badly in need and so first thing the next morning, his second day in cell, i was at the police station. Just like his neighbour did, i tried to speak to the officer in charge, politely pointing out the innocence of a 17 years old friend who shouldn't be made a mincemeat of for crime he neither commit nor support. Then all of a sudden the police did something neither u nor i could ever imagine. He pulled out a pistol from his drawer and pointed it at my forehead. For the first time ever, i found myself at a gunpoint, i froze with fear, i was shivering from head to toe, i was one click away from kicking the bucket. However, it wasnt my time yet, i was pulled out and thrown out of the station by another officer. But the shock really hit me hard, for about 60 seconds, i was too dazed to speak or move. Not to take too much of your time my friend was set free on the third day when it was clear that even beating him till eternity won't provide an answer. As for the old man, he turned back the stolen cement and pleaded with the owner who not only forgive him but treated him with some cash afterwards for being a regretful theif. How about my friend, he didn't get anything from uncle sam, not even a pat on the back. |

I'm surprised at how easy it is to share a traumatic experience on a forum with a whole lot of strangers n yet u won't talk about it to the people closest to u. My most traumatic experience would b finding out at 9weeks pregnant that my baby has a chhromosomal abnormality and that I would either miscarry or my baby wld b stilborn or live only for a few hrs. Then to carry full term knowing this and anticipating the worst, having a C Section and then holding ur baby for 5hrs waiting for the last breathe. |

Fkforyou: Mine was wen i was in ss3(dat is 2009),it was one mornin I was teased in class by a fellow student b'cos of d material dat was attached to d pocket of my trouser,d material was called Mamar(it also had a song) I became very emotional in class,they teased me with it,i almost cried,wat pained me d most was my best friend was d one dat encouraged it instead of standing up 4 me,although we were 2geda yesterday i stil can't 4give him,it was 1 guy dat told dem to stop..It has affected my psychologicaly dat i can't think back at my days in sec.skul and all d fun i had with my friends without thinking abt dat moment,jst last month 1 of my course mate was rude to me,odas were laughing,i jst kept quite,i didn't pay attention to him,all i was thinking was dat scenario dat happened in ss3.I began to see myself as som1 who is weak and emotional,in order to prove to my self dat am not,i'm now losing my compasion.Up till dis day i still remember dat scenario wishing i could rewind time and give dat guy a beatin of his life,funny enough most people still look at me as som1 who had a perfect life in sec skul,i was brilliant,d girls in my class liked me,i was d headboy and so on. But they have no idea d pain am going through upstairs..Hmm if only they had a clue. You need to let it go. You will feel free when you do. Forgive that person for what he did that very moment. You are definitely more than him like you have described. |

cigar icon: Actually I wanted to keep this to myself but I just felt I should let it out. Sometimes I just wonder how some pple could pay back good for evil.Oh my goodness!! What a horrible experience. For other people reading this - never take this much justice into your own hands because there is a small possibility that the person may be innocent. Let us learn to control our anger and hurt. Any curse placed on the people that attacked the OP must surely come to pass, cause he was innocent. |
Re: The Most Traumatic Experience You Ever Suffered In Your Life by weaseloo: 12:27am On Feb 04, 2013 |
I have two experiences to share: 1. This was in 2004. I watched the beheading of 2 men American and British kidnapped in Iraq or somewhere in the Middle East. I thought I was a strong chic but after watching that gruesome video online, I was never the same. I did not watch the Aluu videos because I am still tucking away the images of the first one I watched. 2. Childbirth. I hope I don't get trashed for saying this but it was a traumatising experience for me and I am still dealing with it. Women are truly blessed by God because we have the ability to forego the pains and go ahead for another. |
