Does nearly dying in two high speed motorcycle accidents, one high speed car accident, one mountaineering accident, one plate glass door accident (300 stitches), one severed artery accident (left radial artery), once to a lightening strike, twice to diseases, and once to an EtOH overdose count?
I was also a paramedic for a while and saw lots of traumas. The funny thing is I am not bothered in the slightest by any of these life events. |

When I divorced my first wife. Beotch took everything, I went to visit my parents for a couple of days and she called in a moving company and cleaned out the apartment and the bank account, and moved 600 miles away. All I had left was my car and the clothes on my back. But I got over it when I started banging her older sister

Been through some terrible surgeries and recoveries as a kid, seen enough murders, suicides, and dead babies and children for a lifetime and I'm only 26.
You think you've seen the worst of people and then they have to go and one up themselves. It's funny how innocent some people think the world is. In reality it is a gruesome experiment in how much man can take before he quits or dies. |

Back in the day I felt bad when some little punk kid got his bike stolen. One of the older boys took his bike
And proceeded to ghost ride it down into the murky water at the bottom of a drainage canal. I then waded in to get the bike and this slime and seaweed stuck to me as a swam out. The little boy was happy though. He grew up that day.

As a freshman in high school,we had to wait at the elementary school for the buses to take us to the high school. Me and a friend were sharing a cigarette, as our bus approached my friend was hell bent on being first on the bus. He ran toward the bus tripped somehow and fell under the bus and the back set of tires ran over him. He lifted his head once, layed it back down and passed away right there. Air Vac showed but again he was DOA.

Being present when my dad would beat the shit out of my mom. He did it most nights. If I happen to be in bed when he came home and he would start in on her, I would put the pillow over my head to try to not hear. I can still only sleep with pillow over my head and it has been 25 years since my last dealings with that.

Lost mom and dad, within six months of each other, when I was 19. I think the day mom got her biopsy done and found out about the cancer was the worst, this was two months after dad died. I was watching my world burn down around me. Remember, this is after going through three years of dad being horrendously sick, his death was a relief in many ways, but I was not ready for mom, the rock in my corner, the person who held me up while I held her up, to be gone.
Me, Jack Daniels, and God had one hell of an argument that night... God won, and gave me the strength to somehow see everything through, but I had one hell of a meltdown afterward. Everything before or since just sorta pales in comparison.. my wife wonders how I can be so calm when bad things happen, it really can always be worse. |

Where to start. Start small and more localish in the traumatization. Got jumped by six thugs while walking home late one evening. They tried their best to kill me. Multiple boot kicks to the face, hits to the head with brass knuckles, six people stomping on my body at once.
Then we could get into family issues Relationship issues Finding dead bodies constantly while hanging billboards for a living Burying my best friend my senior year etc etc etc |

When I was 6 years old I went to Six Flags to ride the biggest and fastest roller coaster in the world. However, it had no seat belts, just a lap bar. After the second drop I somehow slid under the bar heading out the door until my mom grabbed me. I rode the rest of the ride held down on the floor. It took a long time to get over my fear of any big rides after that.

About 6 years ago, I'm the GM of an oilfield service company. We work 24/7/365 and my phone is pretty quiet after 7PM unless there is a problem. Phone wakes me up around 11:30PM with a major wreck evolving one of our trucks not far from town. Two teenage girls ran a stop sign in front of our truck and got completely blitzed. The car almost immediately caught fire and burned both of them beyond human recognition. I was on the scene when they removed those girls - I can still remember the drivers white socks after all that fire. The smell of burning cars haunts me to the day.

I don't know if I would describe it as traumatic but it certainly effected my outlook on life.
When I was a kid, elementary school age, I was riding my bike down to the creek one afternoon and road up on two guys messing with a piece of road equipment the county had parked there. As I got close grabbed a wrench and came after me. Luckily the second guy wanted no part of caving in a kids head and wrapped him so I could escape. I got off the road the second I was out of sight and traveled low through the field all the way to the house so they could not see from the road. |

All of the furniture, silverware, clothes, 3 - 5 gallon buckets of brass and TV were either sold at a yard sale or Pawn Shop. There was still some items they had not gotten rid of in a storeage unit that I got back. My lawn was dead along with a tree my Wife and I had planted. There were holes in the walls.

The summer when I turned 6, the river was nearly over the banks. We had a small boat tied to a tree, and I was playing in it (after being told repeatedly not to, of course). Somehow the knot came loose, or the rope broke, I don't remember. The current was fast, and the boat headed downstream in a hurry.
I will never forget my terror, thinking what my father would do to me. I tried to scream, but my voice did not work. That scared me even more. In less than a minute, I managed to find an oar, and I was able to grab a tree branch. I got to shore, and dragged the boat back and got it tied up before anyone noticed I was gone. I had the shakes for half an hour. |
