The most difficult thing I think I have had to go through in my twenty-one years of life world be when my parents split up after I graduated from high school, still not knowing what I should do about life when it's just now getting started and my dad had started to go downhill. My mom left my dad because he is an alcoholic that got diagnosed with cirrhosis and she wanted a man that would hold her instead of a beer can. I just continue to pray for better days because life's been a roller-coaster ride. I think Forrest Gump said it best, " Life is life a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get"
Sorry to hear about your Dad's bad health. Hopefully he finds the motivation to reduce the drinking. They may have split but Hopefully one day they can be friends again.
The most difficult thing I had to go through was college. College has been very challenging such as going to class and completing assignments and studying for upcoming tests. Also, having to work and attend school at the same time was very stressful. I believe once school is over I feel that I will be able to breathe.
Personally, for me, I think the hardest thing I had to go through was my parents getting divorced when I was 8 years old. I could never grasp what was going on until I got of age and found everything that went on.
My freshman year of high school I entered my own mental hell. I lost myself badly to depression, still no idea what caused that. Now I am healthy and love myself a lot. Freshman year was hard. I learned what alcohol was and I abused it. Margaritas on a Tuesday, it did not matter to me. I wanted to forget my pain. Yet that was not the hardest part. The hardest part was asking for help and telling the people who loved me the most how much I hated life and who I was. Thank God that is all over! Lol!
The most difficult thing that I had to go through was the passing away of my father when I was 18 and in my beginning sophomore year of college. To my father I'm the only child, but to my mother I'm her oldest of six children. So, I had to literally go through his "transformation" by myself. What made it worse was that when my father found out that he was sick, he told everyone of our close relatives to not tell me about it so that I would be able to focus in college. Of course, it didn't get revealed to me until his cancer became so bad that my elder relatives came to an agreement to tell me, despite how my father rejected the idea. By the time I went to see him, he was emaciated and could no longer speak due to the medicine and large amounts of morphine. Seeing him in that frail state, knowing how strong of a man he was both mentally and physique wise. My father was always into working out and lifting his weights, playing basketball, and as a career he was a computer engineer. So seeing him then upon arrival was horrific and my heart sunk in. Even then when I saw him, I don't know how I managed to not make a face of absolute sorrow or burst out crying. Instead, when I saw him I smiled and said "Hi dad.... Don't worry, you're going to make it. Don't worry dad..." Unfortunately, the next phone call I received on another day that I was going with my aunt to see him was the call that he had passed away. I remember dropping to my knees crying hysterically and an intense heaviness came upon my body on the train ride. My aunt had to drag me off the train because I was rendered immobile from my emotional response. Upon getting to the hospital and seeing his body in the hospital bed, I collapsed once again this time screaming out loud in the pain of losing my father to colon cancer, he was only 41 years old. My aunt telling me to please not be so loud because other patients were on the unit. It didn't phase me at that point. I'm sure every staff member, patient, and patient family member that heard my yells knew why and what they were hearing... A child who just lost her father/family member. This FOREVER changed my life.
The most difficult thing I had to do was grow up really fast after high school. I had my son at a really young age so I couldn't do the things my friends were doing like staying out late and going to parties. I had focused on going back to school to get a higher education and get a great job with benefits plus child care. Being a good parent was very difficult for me because parenting doesn't come with a handbook you have to learn and grow with your child.
The most difficult thing I had to endure as a child was not having my father around. I didnt have that father daughter relationship while growing up. Not having that relationship caused me trauma in my adulthood. As an adult I am working on my relationship with my father and fixing what broke me
The most difficult thing that I've ever been through was the death of my grandpa. He basically raised me when I was younger and It absolutely shattered my heart when I found out that he was dead especially because I didn't get to say goodbye. He also didn't deserve to die the way that he did.
The most difficult thing for me to endure has been a nasty, public divorce. My ex husband and I were best friends, grew up together as children and were business partners. After 16 years together (14 years of marriage) we agree to walk away peacefully and keep it private until it was finalized. Unfortunately, he was bragging to his clients about the situation and leaving me with nothing. His girlfriend (one of many and some had been my friends - unknown to me), forged my name on our 401k so he could cash it in. He had plans to leave me with nothing. It worked! He took everything and on top of that, he filed a fake complaint with my former employer to have me terminated. That worked too! I was embarrassed, hurt and betrayed. Divorce shows the real person behind the mask even after 16 years. I was devastated. I had to live with friends and sought help from people I did not know. My mental health was declining. It was extremely rough as I felt it hard to trust anyone. I thought everyone was lying. To protect myself, I deleted all social media accounts and discounted. I wanted to start life over. The journey has been rough and it is not over yet; however, I have survived 100% of my worst days and I will continue to survive 100% more.
I have been through some difficulties in my life. My mom had brain cancer and that was very hard; however, she is alive and cancer free so I am left with the 'happy' feeling from that. That being sad the worst experience that happened to me was two of best friends dying in a car wreck when I was 17. They were victims of a drunk driver at 8 am leaving the bar, who lived through the accident. He crossed the center median and they smashed the car they were driving into the underside of the drunks car. They died instantly, which was good, I guess. There were four of us that hung out all the time. Tony and Chad were getting a place together. My other friend and I were on the way to meet them at their new place and we passed the accident on the way there and didn't even recognize the car, because the accident was so bad. We got to the new apartment and they never showed up, we tried to call. There were no cel phones at the time. We went home. I got a call later from the hospital and they asked me to come ID the body of Tony, Chads mom had already been there and ID Chad and she had given them my name because Tony parents were not able to be reached. That was very hard, but the hardest part was going to see Tonys dad and telling him his son had died. Tonys parents had just lost Tonys older brother to suicide one month before this day. I got to their house a little while before they arrived and Tonys girlfriend showed up in the yard with flowers for Tony parents in regards to his brothers death. I was very hard and traumatic time for me. I turned further to drugs and probably should have died multiple time myself. God is good all the time!
One of the hardest things I had to go through in my life is when I was 15 years old I had a partial hip replacement. Not only did I have to relearn to walk again, but I had to relearn how to play the sport I loved all over again, volleyball. It was not only painful physically to get back to a fraction of the average everyday activities I had to do, but it was painful emotionally and mentally. Without the grace of god and my faith in him I would have never gotten the strength to get back to normal, but to this day I am glad I did preserver through the pain and got back to normal.
I have had to go through many difficult things but one of them that I'm willing to share is when I got covid in 2020. That was one of the hardest things that I've had to go through. I literally thought that I was dying. I couldn't get out the bed, I wasn't eating, my 6 year old son had to take care of me. I was also hallucinating and my lips were blue. I honestly didn't think I was going to make it. Thankfully I am still here.
The most difficult thing that I have had to go through was being arrested for a rental car that I turned in because someone did not do there job and take it out of the system. I was arrested for like two days. I was released on a $10,000 bond. The charges were dropped once they confirmed that the car was not stolen and was turned it nine months prior to the arrest. It was a traumatic experience for me. I had small children that saw their mom get arrested for apparently no reason. I will never forget the looks on their faces or hearing them cry. I am getting emotional just typign this. I currently still have an ongoing lawsuit as we speak because this was very unnecessary.
The most difficult thing I've had to overcome was childhood traumas. I grew up being angry at the world and my parents for things that had happened in my life. Although these things have shaped my life tremendously, I realized that I had to grow up, and grow up FAST. My behavior was reckless and I often placed judgment on my parents for not achieving at certain things in life. I realized once I started having children, that I must change and become the best role model for them. I have started therapy and returned back to school, and that has changed and shaped my life for the better. My favorite quote from Jay Z is: "You can't heal from the things you don't reveal".
I don't really know where to begin with this. The past two years almost felt like hell on earth. My fiancé at the time, was away for work and his father passed away. the following year parents got divorced and I began worrying about my mother a lot. A few months later, my own engagement was called off and picking up the pieces was challenging. I lost my sense of purpose and had no idea how to pull myself up. some other truly unexpected tragedies happened as well, but I am trying to tell myself to acknowledge everything that happened. and to also just be grateful that somehow, someway, I am still standing here today doing the best I can.
The most difficult think I have ever been through was the death of my spouse. He was 37 and I was 34. We had 4 year old twins at the time of his death. I can recount the whole day when I found out he had died unexpectedly. It was probably the longest day of my life. All kinds of thoughts were going through my head all at once... yet I was stuck and not able to move. I had to tell my 4 year old twins that daddy wasn't coming home. The first year was filled with tears ,screams, resentment and more tears. I dreaded every holiday, birthday, or any event because he was not hear to see all of them. It has now been 10 years and I still get angry that he is not hear to see his twins as they are entering high school. One thing I have learned is that life does go one. You have to pick up the pieces and carry on.
One of the most difficult things I've gone through is my current situation, separating from my daughter's father. We moved across the country together 5 years ago, got jobs, had a child, and bought a house. Our relationship ended 6 months ago, but we have still been co-habitating and co-parenting as best we can. It has been incredibly difficult for me, especially, because I have no family around us. I recently started a new job, I'm trying to go to school and do well, and still take care of everything at home. I've done okay, all things considered. However, I have had to endure him literally "dangling" other women in my face. He claims that he can do what he wants because he is single now, but it is so painful to see someone you shared your life with for 8 years with other people. We are working to fully separate and live in different houses, but in this economy, it's not as easy as it sounds. Each day has it's struggles, but I know it will be okay one day because it has to be.
The most difficult thing I ever went through was when my long term boyfriend was killed in an accident. We had lived together and I had no idea that morning would be the last time I would see him. I got the phone call at work from my ex husband and rushed home to have that dreadful talk with my boyfriends 13 year old son. His son was removed from my home because we were not blood related even though his mother had never been a part of his life. A few months later I got a call from him asking to come home so I got him a lawyer and won custody to bring him home.
The most difficult thing I think I have had to go through in my twenty-one years of life world be when my parents split up after I graduated from high school, still not knowing what I should do about life when it's just now getting started and my dad had started to go downhill.
