What is the worst thing you've ever had to go through and how did you overcome it?



Answer:
I was attacked and nearly killed by a stranger. I had some serious issues with fear and paranoia after that, whether I was in my house or not. Nightmares, shame, etc. I wasn't even ok enough to be glad to at least be alive. I was sure it would happen again. Well, after some months, I got sick of my own private pity party and took 6 months worth of self defense classes, firearms class, OC, and followed up with some baton training. I'm not even remotely afraid anymore. I took on a job in security...not your standard position, this one involved constant confrontation and physical altercations. One shift even envolved a gunfight when I was the only one on duty. Yes, I pat myself on the back. I shed my fear, made my body strong and capable, healed my mind, and rebuilt my self esteem. I would be the wrong girl to mess with now.
my mother dying and me filling for divorce the day after i buried my mom. the ONLY way i got over it was with GOD's help.
both parents dying on the same day. that was the worst. i over came it by getting so drunk that i almost died too
Boy I have had it rough these past six months. I was in an abusive relationship, he beat me and then he lied and got me arrested. So I had to go through that. Then I had this nasty terrible woman stalking and harrassing me. She is a neighbor and pathetic and just all around completely unpleasant and rude, so that made life hard. She did so much. She really made my life so much worse than it needed to be, she went on for months doing terrible things to me. She was worse than my abusive ex. Then my Dad was in a horrific car accident a month ago. Now finally everything is calming down. I made it through with support from my dogs and smiling and letting me know that I love myself. It has been one rough road, but I am here to tell you I am still smiling and I am happy and I am starting to see brighter days.
my moms little sister was killed by a drunk driver when i was five. ever since then i felt i lost my mom too. she was never the same. she didnt laugh as much, she didt play with us kids anymore, she was so angry and it eventually rubbed off on me to where i held her anger for her. i think the ultimate healing factor is time. eventually we all became close again and exepted life as it comes and goes.
The forecast my boss had given me. I had to sell 15 houses and lots in ONE MONTH or else he'll fire me. The hell!

My deadline is tomorrow, and until now I only sold one house and lot.
I lost my mother, my marriage, my friend at work died giving her son a bath and had a seizure and feel in the water and died, my career all at the same time not to mention having neck surgery and wearing a halo to my mothers funeral I went thru counseling for all that. 2 yrs later here come the storm again. I lost my father, my housing, the dog even got hit by a car 3 days later. I went to grief counseling for 2 yrs. for that. Recently I have came close to losing my 2 sons due to a fatal accident. I have had a granddaughter die and the father of my neices 3 children died so all the above were the worst. I get over it because life is constantly changing and I have to be flexible and still have the ability to praise God. I read Job a lot in the bible and I pray and appreciate what I do have. I now have 2 dogs and a beautiful home and a family that I love. It's not like I'm a refugee waking up this morning. You know?
