Mine is more what my mind can do because I get psychosis. The fear is getting stuck like it. One time I could feel a massive hole in my head, I couldn't remember things I ought to remember like date of birth, I believed I was dead and every time I shut my eyes I could see the beginning and end of the universe, ears rushing. It was awful. When I realised I couldn't be dead or maybe I was in hell I got very paranoid. My brain has played some other horrible tricks on me.

I've been tied up. Had petrol put on me and threatened to be put on fire. Had a gun to my head. Raped. Locked myself in toilet crying to try to hide from stuff as a child. But still what my own brain did and could do again is scarier.

Being involved in a terrorist shooting. My daughter was about 3 at the time. I had to run and take cover with her in my arms

@Notladylike That is horrifying. I am so glad you and your daughter survived.

When I got a text from my kid, from school. “Dad we have an active shooter situation”.
Northwest · M
@Notladylike Two dead, not including the shooter. The gun he was using jammed, one of the kids standing next to him jumped him.

The guy was watching the school for a while, walked in loaded with multiple rifles, into the cafeteria, during lunch time, and decided to kill as many as he can.
originnone · 61-69, M
@Northwest WOW!
Northwest · M
@originnone With a mass shooting, just about every single day, odds are we're all going to touched by tragedy.

My wife was in ICU suffering from sepsis, on a ventilator. She fully recovered.

What a question! I've stopped reading the answers. I'm just a coward at times. Been attacked and molested when I was in the army. Wasn't too bad in comparision looking backwards. I've been spared too much violence. What event was really terrifying and sent me into direct shock at the time was a sudden evaluation meeting with my new boss and her henchman. They made me feel like I was nothing at all. Came out of there with suidice ideas. Went home and picked up the phone to my trade union. The woman at the other end listened for a full half hour of me telling her my story and then told me that she would take it up stairs. Those are the magic words, I guess. Someone will do something with your plight
originnone · 61-69, M
@val70 I'm a coward too.

narrowly escaped from being robbed and killed by a person (with his associates) who I thought I knew well and bound me to leave my job and the city where I was lived for long and bound me to live a almost hiding life now
[big][center][u][i][b][c=A69800]A few things but not saying on here for ALL to see. Might not be as bad as what happens to others..






Kinda no ones business though only my own and defo not sharing with people who do not like me on here.. 🙅🏼‍♀️[/c][/b][/i][/u][/center][/big]
reflectingmonkey · 51-55, M
I was attacked and they electrocuted me with a tazer directly on my heart, in my mind all I could see was black and hear the sound of the tazer like nothing else existed and it felt like it was sucking out the life from me and I felt like when it will have finished draining me I will die. I was suffering from PTSD for a while and someone directed me to EP as a good place to talk with strangers and express myself, and from EP I ended up here. that wasnt the worst thing that happened to me but the other stuff I can't even talk about.
salwa · F
@reflectingmonkey i was member of EP too, i feel glad when i find some EP veterans like you, it really was a great place to do alot of stuffs, thanks for your reply and glad you r here
The woman I deeply loved, having a dual personality and not only wielding a knife but striking me with a knife, within 3 months of her doctor perscribing her Adderall. No joke!

My apartment was taken over. My gf was seperared from me. I didnt know what they were doing with her. I got back to her months later. Her mind was destroyed.

Had a knife held to my throat on two separate occasions and had a gun pointed at my face on another.

I came close to falling to my death off of a cliff while traversing a steep slope covered in a Matt of small suculants that I thought were rooted to the ground but were actually only lightly rooted in sand and the entire slope began to slide down when I got out to the middle of it, all of the plants were falling off of the cliff like a waterfall and I had to lie flat with my arms and legs spread out to keep myself from sliding off the cliff with the plants

I was alone and came within a few scant feet of going over the edge and falling a hundred feet or more to the rocks and surf below.

I managed to inch my way up and sideways over the course of what seemed like hours until I reached some rocky terrain and solid ground.
I thought I was going to die that day.
Emergency surgery after haemorrhaging for days
Walking home from the bus one night when I was a college student, and I heard gunshots nearby. Not knowing exactly where they came from and just how much danger I was in was the scary part.
RedBaron · M
@latinbutterfly Were you sure they weren’t firecrackers? They often sound like gunshots.
@RedBaron Maybe, but based on the neighborhood I lived in at the time, I didn't take any chances.
Strongtea · 22-25, M
I got mugged in London by five girls, it was so scary, they kicked me and said they had knives.

I was on an alpine slide ride with my child who was 5 at the time. It started to rain which caused the track to turn into a water slide and the brakes on the ride completely failed.

Asthma attack which lead to a cardiac arrest.

My kid as a toddler slipped, hit her head on the tile and her eyes rolled back in her head and her body seized. She seized twice more on the way to the ER which was only about a mile away. When we got there she was totally fine and it was almost as if they didn't believe she even fell.
Templar2x · 46-50, M
Being held at gun point is up there aside from being hit by a car. So.. could go either way really.

I had a knife held against my throat during a mugging aged 15

@JacksonBlue i heard some voice from nowhere telling my that i should go, the voice was so hostile, it was kind of run down house

When I was 17 I was mugged by two guys, one of whom held a knife to my throat.

@sspec There is a lot of unresolved hurt here. And may never be.

One of the saddest places on Earth is a children’s graveyard.
Queendragonfly · 31-35, F
Objectively most terrifying (I checked out mentally and felt nothing, not even fear)
Was a near death experience on the highway.

A knife held to my throat by my ex is the most emotionally scared I've been.
salwa · F
@Queendragonfly can you tell what did you see in near death experience?
Queendragonfly · 31-35, F
@salwa I saw the steering wheel before I let go of it, I saw a dark highway with cars coming at me doing emergency breaks and getting to the side of the road. Then it just went black and I don't remember. Suddenly I'm in the car but the passenger seat. We survived.
jackson55 · M
Rocket fire at my helicopter.
1. Almost got hit by a bus, life was so beautiful for a week after the near death experience.

2. When my dad got injured.
salwa · F
@NotSureAboutMyUserName can you tell what did you experience in near death?

surrounded by 4 guys each with a baseball bat in their hand. i wouldn't be here typing this if a cop hadn't have turned the corner at just the right time.

I got my lip slashed while trying to score drugs a couple years back. Could have had much worse happen than that. I've also had a gun pulled on me before.

@Strongtea strange.? were they white?
Strongtea · 22-25, M
Two were, the others were black. They wanted to take my jeans (I think it was to stop me chasing them, not that I would have) but I was so frozen/scared they kind of just gave up and took what I’d handed over.@salwa

When some people tried to blow me up.

But then again I was trying to free the people whom they were trying to conquer.

They did not succeed.

Slipping over a waterfall in the dark, that was utterly terrifying but the adrenaline helped a lot.

Some.
Not easy to rank them.

@ElRengo
I didn’t take it personal.

It was my job to stop them.

They haven’t tried it again.
