When I found out I was pregnant for the first time ever, I called my dad to tell him the news and the very first thing he said to me was, “First test you ever passed. What a flunker!” I was married at 25 and feeling like I did it the way I was supposed to but that comment cut me to the core of my being! My son will be 24 years old this year and he’s an amazing young man but man, those words spoken by my dad killed me!

Luckily a lot of people have learned this in their life. Unfortunately. There are powerful people who never learned this. Constantly making life hard and sad for people who never deserved it. Be it through bills, laws and restrictions or direct hateful behaviour and treatment. I'm just glad AI have learned it as well. So with more and more installation of AI in the government. We will see more and more limitations as to how these hateful people can roam around in important job posts in the system. I can't wait for bigoted people to just instantly be laid off and get medication and professional help when they show hateful behaviour. I honestly feel sad for any person living a hateful life. They are all corrupted by something external in their life that got so close it became internal and almost like a part of them and their self-identity.

After my car broke my down a year ago, I was sexually assaulted by the person who stopped to "help" me. I was distraught and when in that vulnerable state someone I considered a good friend told me "what were you doing there at that time of night?". I stopped talking to her and I didn't feel right about how things ended and so I reached out to her again and she told me that she did not remember why we even stopped talking. That was the most painful thing that I have ever been told. It didn't even register to her.

Telling someone that their laugh/smile is ugly or comments on a laugh/smile in any kind of negative way is just utterly cruel. They are robbing someone of expressing joy and happiness and can really lead to that person never smiling or laughing ever again.

it happens. It is not a big deal. You grow up learning how to show joy through other ways. Yes you have less or no selfies in your phone cause you don't smile and people don't like taking selfies witth you cause you don't smile properly. But that should not be such a bug deal. Not if your friends actually care about you as a person. If your mouth is less expressive your eyes will learn to do the job.

One of the most painful things I've ever experienced and in realizing everything I repressed and suffered for was for nothing. I never got anything and I never got acknowledged for being good except in school but that was treated by one parent like it was worthless garbage. She wanted me to be rewarded not for my good character or citizenship but for my academics because that mattered more to her. But even when I got acknowledged for the subjects I was good at it still didn't matter. Nothing I did ever mattered to anyone except my dad and my grandma and they both passed away.

7th grade at St. Luke’s, Mrs. Woods grabbed me by the arm, in front of everyone, and pulled me out of one of the school dances.. it was in the auditorium and she made me go up to our school classroom with bright lights, and said I couldn’t wear a tank top or eyeshadow (like all the other girls, because I had a big chest) because “this isn’t a lingerie show Carley!!” And that going forward in my life, boys will never like me for real reasons. “They’ll never like you for you.” That shit changed my life. I was a completely innocent child at that point, I hadn’t even kissed a boy.. I was just starting that phase. It may not seem like a big deal to anyone else but it was to me, she (along with older men that gawked at me, and other things that started to happen from 11-14) prematurely sexualized me and it fucked me up. I went and got the biggest breast reduction I could, from the first doctor I could find, at a teaching-hospital, when I turned 18. He, of course, botched it. I completely regret it. It totally altered my femininity. I don’t show my chest to anyone. I’m now 39, as of yesterday, and still have a messed up relationship with insecurities, my body, my looks, and especially sex and men. **Sigh** I don’t think anyone’s reading this and that’s totally okay! 😁

Look, I feel bad for that woman, but as a member of the LGBTQ community who gets tested regularly, I highly doubt that any of those things in her story were a surprise except for the diagnosis. Many places offer gift cards as an incentive, and there are often testing sites in accessible locations so people can get tested easily. I fully understand that it was a traumatic experience for her but blaming the location and the gift card are just an emotional reaction. She very likely knew the test location was at a school and knew the incentive was a Subway gift card. People should not be blaming the nurse or testing site.

I hear ppl talk about others teeth so much in a very rude way & truthfully his response & how it affected him is why i try my best to be sensitive to other peoples feelings when it comes to their teeth. Dental work is NOT cheap - especially if it’s cosmetic. my rule is if a person can’t change it over night, then watch your words bc they really do hurt and (clearly) stick around for a long time.

[@EricaGamet]

I always get complimented on my teeth and my smile. I always feel bad if it's said when I'm with a friend/colleague that doesn't have the best teeth. I have really nice teeth because my mom paid for me to get a lot of dental work done. My actual teeth were messed up and always caused issues. No one should be seen as less than because their teeth aren't "perfect" (used in quotes, because what does that even mean?).

[@nicoleabrahao1026]

I have very fragile teeth, they break all the time. It was like that my whole life. Sometimes anesthesia wasn't enough and my visits to the dentist were always very traumatic and painful. For that and because I used a pacifier for a long time, they're very crooked. I can't for the life of me correct them with braces because dentists always have to fix the broken ones before putting on braces and there's never time for that. They break before we can even start. It has been a constant reason for low self-steem. I can't laugh or smile without being self-conscious. I wish I could smile like other people, laugh without putting a hand over my mouth, and not see people staring at my teeth and then asking "So, when are you goint to put braces on?"

I was in an abusive marriage. He seemed perfect - until shortly after our wedding. Then he started to belittle and insult me. At some point, he even threatened me. Finally, he hit me. I separated when my daughter was 2 years old. He said so many hurtful things to me that it's hard to name any of them as the worst. For example, he said to our baby: "You see, mommy doesn't love you. All she ever does is cry." I know she doesn't remember that, but it hurt me badly. As I found out later, I probably also had postnatal depression. The worst thing about being constantly insulted and belittled is that at some point you start to believe it yourself. I needed a lot of time and help from other people to get my self-confidence back. I am now married to a wonderful man who would never hurt me or my children (including his stepdaughter) like that. Never let anyone tell you that you are worth nothing!

My ex then said to my face that I should consider going to the gym and working out so I could get curvier for his benefit. That was so insanely hurtful to me.

I was relatively obese as a teenager due to comfort eating after a rough childhood full of bullying and a very toxic home life. I would play video games to escape and cope. My sister (3 years older) was dating a guy who told me I'd be "fat for the rest of my life and never amount to anything." I'm 27 now, and I'm sad to say I'm a pretty damaged anti-social introvert; but I've bought a house, have a successful career as a welder, and no longer tolerate toxic people in my life. If I could get his opinion now, i bet he'd say I've made something of myself; but I've never been truly happy and honestly I'm not sure if I know how to find happiness... and I have an inability to be vulnerable which really causes my relationships to suffer or fail. I'm still hopeful but life is tough and there's not enough empathy in the world. Love eachother ❤️ strive to never be someone else's lasting pain!

Once I got my breath again, I started crying and almost screaming that it couldn’t be true. He and I had already parted ways at that point, but I loved her so much that when we had broken up, I had asked him if he’d mind if I kept in touch with her. He said that he didn’t mind and that she’d probably like that very much. She and I kept in touch until that horrible day. It’s been almost 30 years and it’s still the most painful thing I’ve been told. I still miss her. To everyone who has read this, thank you.

It happened 10 years prior, and my sisters had confided in her. My mom was just going to let it go, which blew my mind. She wasn’t even going to tell my dad about his brother - who was a confirmed child abuser, m*olester (of his own daughters and multiple nieces), a spousal abuser, and a serial adulterer. I was outraged and told my dad. He became very upset - at ME - and he and my mom yelled at me for telling him. Another kick in the gut is that they continued to be on good terms with my creepy uncle and traveled the 2 hour round trip, frequently, to visit him. I have experienced multiple traumatic events in my life, like many of you, but this is in the top ten. It was like calling the cops, and the cops show up and take the bad guy’s side and start shooting at you. It’s partly why I’m in therapy and have poor mental and physical health. My uncle and my dad have since passed away. Last fall I tried talking to my sisters (who never thanked me for defending them) and my mom about all this. They have completely rejected me and don’t communicate with me. So much so that I had a heart attack a couple of months ago (largely due to stress because of them not communicating) and they never contacted me while I was in the hospital - and they knew I was there and why. A few weeks later my mom emailed my wife to complain about me. Then, about 5 weeks after my heart attack, my mom texted me and was talking to me like I was dead - like how you hear about people who are grieving, texting someone who has passed away. All they had to do decades ago was extremely easy - kick the child predator out of your life and love your own children. So, yeah, I’m in my 50s and my birth family has cut me off and painted me as a bad person for standing up to a predator. Seems like a no-brainer that the child predator would be the actual bad guy. And they all blame me for my problems.

[@jenispizz2556]

It's not your FAULT that you have problems, but it sucks they are your responsibility. It sounds like your family might have a lot of problems of their own if they're content to bury things like that. I think the best thing for you is to move on from them and kick ass in your own way. Maybe you do have problems, but you clearly have a lot of courage to come out and say something about your uncle. That's how I know you can build an awesome life all on your own.

[@MAXWUZHEAR]

Sorry that you were ostracized by your family for doing the right thing. Its like telling your best friend that their partner is being unfaithful and end up being the evil one. My mother who has no contact with my grandmother my late gradfather, her two sisters and all cousins. Called me a couple of years ago asking me for help. At the time living with my father, my sister and my gf. She was ranting about getting beat up by her boyfriend and wanting money for her silence. Well I had the brilliant idea of not telling my father who has a horrible relationship with her (But never got divorced) and inviting her in for two weeks. Its been 6years now and we all had to leave. Because of the absolut hell she puts everyone through. The worst thing about it is not that that action changed the dynamic of every relationship I had with family. But is that she regrets coming in the first place and hates being here. I got all the blame for helping my Mom or so I thought "helping". To be fair everyone is terrified of my mother as she is extremely explosive and unstable. My mother is also the same person that said "never have children" as in biological. I was in disbelief so was my friend J. I was also 11 years old. She is mentally ill I vist my old home frequently to check up spend time ( because she has no friends) groceries and phone bill because she is overqualified and too old to work. When I call my grandmom (moms Mom) because she never calls, she asks " hows mom", I dont want to worry her she knows how her daughter is. Im going to leave it at that. I was not going to write so much but you really opened up and I just wanted to say you are not alone you probably know that but lets make the world a better place. Best,

[@suneater_zeef050]

mine was "you must have misunderstood him." it was just when i felt my communication w my mom got better and i came clean to her that i had memories resurface of her father sexually assaulting me at an age as young as three years old all the way to thirteen. i was shaking in front of her and she was holding my hand. and that's what she decided to say, asking me if i'm sure, if it's a "false memory", if i misunderstood his intentions. that's when i understood there's no way i'm trying again; she has never brought it up after, she still asks if i want to talk to him on the phone and tells me how she's worried for him. i'm hurt and bitter that she chose her asshole father that in his whole life has only been cruel to everyone around him, including his kids and wife, over me. that man was only ever nice to me because i was a little boy. it's clear he doesn't give a damn about me now that i'm an adult. i apologise for the long winded answer, it's really been weighing on me.

My old man is cold and indifferent. He was not abusive in the sense of beating us or anything like that, but he never made himself accessible. So when I was 14 it came as a shock when he came in drunk one night. And started telling me that I was lazy, fat, I am not doing anything with my life (again 14 at the time) and then after a bit more he paused. He put his hands on my shoulders, looked my in the eyes and made sure to make eye contact and told me. You are a disappointment. THat one stuck with me, because as I said he was always distant and usually just never talked. So while he was never physically abusive or constantly shouting. What made that stick was that he simply told me how he honestly felt, and sadly was not positive. One of the few times I can say he was being honest with me, but I never let his words have power. I became a US Marine and created my own life, I knew from a young age I never needed his approval to be happy or successful. And I can happily say I was right. Edit Addition: I was recently told by a sister who is 10 years older than me that her and my father were talking and made mention I was the favorite for never asking him for anything....I haven't physically seen the man in 10 years and I am his favorite because I never asked him for any level of support after I joined the Marines at 18 (im 32)....My sister thought maybe I would see that as a positive but I told her how sad of a standard that is. That a child can be seen as a favorite while not seeing that person in a decade....The man who called me a disappointment now calls me his favorite for removing him from my life essentially, I am still not sure how to view that. What I can say is that it proves that I was right, I never needed him or his approval.

[@bodie1098]

That's the message I got from my old man, too. That I'm a disappointment. I'm still surprised when people like me. But now that I'm older I see that people DO like me.

I’ve joked about this but deep down it’s stuck with me out of all the insults I’ve heard. Recently, my little sister has cussed me out and taken her anger out of me unnecessarily. She told me “this is why nobody loves you and people cheat on you, you should’ve stayed in *state* and ugly 🍑 b**** amongst other things. Mental and emotional abuse is worse than physical and I’ve experienced all. Honestly, to have light and love in your heart after all is the most amazing thing.

I’m a ginger (shriek!) and I’m absolutely positive everyone (including family) were/are reflexively repulsed by how I look. I’m 100% sure my closest family members hated me from birth because of my complexion and red/orange hair color. (There are cute ginger babies. I just wasn’t one of them.)

Everyone has pros and cons but saying there is nothing good about you is pretty rough. And telling someone they dont love someone? How are you able to say something like that? The part that makes it hurt so much is the context around it being said. It was my best friend's girlfriend. She said it right in front of my best friend and he didnt defend me at all. In fact, he tried justifying her by saying it was just her perspective. Later, he confirmed she said these things (and more) just to try and hurt me. There is a lot more to the story but I am no longer friends with him. He chose her and called me immature for asking for an apology. Just crazy how such an evil statement had a domino effect that led to the ending of a 10+ year best friend relationship. And btw, I am happily married to my partner now.

To the teacher who uplifted and affirmed her student. THANK YOU 🙏 teachers have so much important influence over children’s lives and emotional health. I still remember every one of my elementary school teacher’s names. To the young lady whose mom implied she has mental issues and is a bad Christian bc she takes care of her mental health by going to therapy/counseling, in addition to prayer, please know that attitude is generationally common among older (Silent Gen, Boomers and probably some Gen X) Black American and other POCs. I and many people I know who are BIPOC have older relatives who have that mindset. They believe therapy means you are either crazy or at best, weak minded and lacking a backbone. They say this stuff bc they didn’t have open support systems themselves or people they could turn to to get support when trauma happened. So they turned to the Word and prayer only. Otherwise they just “took it” and consider it a badge of strength to not ask for help or to speak to someone. As it exists today, there was no such thing as going to a therapist or counselor for these generations of Black people when they were your age. Your mom likely thinks your “weakness” (it isn’t) is a is some kind of reflection on her as well bc most if not all parents see their kids as mirrors of themselves. If she did not need it, she thinks YOU shouldn’t either. It’s her pride speaking.

Since I was that quiet people said things that I would never have the nerve to say to anyone… and if I didn’t “react “… to what they said… they thought I didn’t understand their comment… but of course I did… I then filed it away in my own brain… and never forgot it.

A side thought… your channel has made me aware that everyone has their own personal stories… and we share so many similarities and emotions… simply as human beings… and it breaks my heart… the way society is structured that people feel it’s acceptable for them to feel that they are better than anyone else trying their best… to do what they can to get through their own lives.

One of the most painful thing I was told was by myself. Telling myself I wasn’t good enough and not deserving of anything good especially love after hearing same things from someone I was with. Messed me up for years until today. I got dumped by a boy I like and deeply care about. All my fault though. He was a good person to me and I didn’t value him enough. I wasn’t physically or emotionally available because I didn’t know how to be that because I was in a really abusing relationship for a year and it messed me up. Been dealing with the issues for two years and just realized how horrible I’ve become. I don’t know if I’d get a second chance with this person. Although it hurts so so bad, especially because I never told him how I really felt about him and how much he means to me, I want to do better. It’s been almost week and it’s so hard that I have to see him a lot and pretend like I’m okay cause I don’t know if I can tell him now. I have a lot to say but yeah. I can’t tell my friends about it. It’s burning me inside. At this point, I’m holding on to God to help me cause all I do is cry and talk to God about every emotion I feel. I believe he’s listening. I just want the hurt to stop.

In whatever way that might be. Have hope, have courage, have sense of mind, have love for yourself when it’s needed most. Good luck.

When I was 13, my father told me that no one would ever love me because of the way I looked. He was always telling me I was fat, punishing me for not doing anything about it. I was pretty slim then, but apparently not as slim as he wanted me to be. Unfortunately, I didn't know at the time that body changes and weight gain is totally normal for a girl my age because I was becoming a teenager and my hormones were kicking in. That‘s why I believed him when he was telling me that I was ugly and disgusting. I'm 26 now, and to this day I still can't fully believe and realise that I'm worthy of love. It's such a blessing and such luck that I did get to meet a man who fell in love with me and became my husband after all… Nevertheless, it‘s still such a painful memory.

This is so rude! I have never heard something like this. You are worthy as you found a husband after those kind of horrible torture. You're so brave!

I've been told and called so many hurtful things by so many people from the moment I came into existence. I carry the spirit of rejection with me wherever I go. I have been repeatedly abused in my life and it has made me hate myself. I struggle every day with thoughts of snuffing myself out of existence. I'm so sorry to anyone who has ever been made to feel small by others. You didn't deserve it.

The worst thing I was told was that if I kept doing what I was doing, I would die in a matter of weeks.

Thank you to the very kind lady who is a teacher. To make a difference in the life of a child is just huge. I grew up feeling invisible too. I wish you had been my teacher. The smallest kindness shown to me as a child shines in my memory still 🙏
