My parents took me to Niagara Falls when I was 9 years old. While I was looking at the falls, the guy next to me climbed over the railing and jumped in. I watched him go over the falls and die while everyone around me was screaming in horror.

Re: What's your earliest traumatic memory?
being born....it hurt TERRIBLY!!
like being in fire.
i was burning alive and i couldnt breathe.
it all hurt so bad.

when i did breathe, it burned and my eyes burned when i opened them, but they hurt more when something was put into them.
my stomach hurt and i didnt want the formula, it tasted bad.
eventually i drank it and my belly pain stopped.

i used to ask other kids if they remembered being born but none ever did.. so i stopped asking.

Re: What's your earliest traumatic memory?
At the end of the day, us kids were brought back to the hall that we lived on (same as any other day), but when I got there my mom wasn't there. They told me she had a bad fever and had to go to the infirmary. I remember spending that entire day terrified and too scared to ask anyone for anything because people didn't usually come back from the infirmary if they had a fever. There was a woman on the hall who said she would do mom things for me while mine was gone, but she wasn't my mom.

Finally, after it was dark, someone realized I had been thirsty most of that evening and they brought me to this utility closet room where the drinks were stored and gave me an apple juice. I'll never forget how it tasted. I remember everything from that day.

I was 3.

Fear, abandonment, and freaking apple juice.

Yeah, I was 5. I remember standing at the door as he loaded his shit into an old light blue Ford F150. Just screaming and yelling for him to stay.

And the cocksucker wonders why forty-four years later I'll celebrate his fucking death! I mean, big ass cheeseburger and drinks at Kilkenny's on Cherry Street in Tulsa. Kick back a brew and ring a bell to the death of one of the most vile people I've ever known.

I was six and my mother fell down the basement steps on a hard floor. I was the first to find her and when I ran to find my older sister I could hardly get the words out to alert her and get my mother some help.

Re: What's your earliest traumatic memory?
I sure it causes brain damage, it may cause different types of problems though. I just worked mine out, maybe 2 years ago, I was three, and it had to do with blood and other problem or trauma caused a mix-up of where the blood and a woman's voice saying it did hurt, it did, it was a voice I didn't recognizes, and I had reoccurring dreams since childhood, turned out it had nothing to do with any of the others. I was tongue-tied they didn't know until I was three years old, they had the doctor to see if there was a problem, being tongue-tied is your tongue is attached underneath, and you can't form word to speak plain. They had to do minor surgery, and it was in the doctor's office, the nurse was the one who told me not to cry that it didn't hurt, the blood was on some gauze. Just goes to show, something's are not in the same traumas.

I remember since I was a tiny bit under two years old, not perfectly, but a lot of memories are still there. I had dreams until I worked through them, by determination I was tired of those recurring dream. Likewise, I was molested also, but unlike some I worked through it. I had been rescued by someone, and he beat the living daylight out of the one who did it. This help a lot, I was a little child, I did no wrong he did. I even forgive him, he needed to get beat and more, but I forgive him.
Sorry I got a headache

When i was 3 i remember my mother rearing up a beer bottle like she was going to throw it at me. I winced and she laughed saying "did you really think i was going to throw it at you?"


Yes mom i did.


I confronted her about it a few months ago. She denied it and said i have a wild imagination. I told her that she is dead to me.

Re: What's your earliest traumatic memory?
I was a kid in 1974, playing in my sandbox. Five years old. Little red ant comes along, and I in my little kid way talked to the ant, saying: "Hello little ant, I won't hurt you!" and then the little bastard stung me on the finger.

It hurt; though as an adult it would probably be nothing at all. Still, respect nature!

Re: What's your earliest traumatic memory?
My older brother, by 7 years, forcing me to perform fellatio on him and then performing on me.

I was 5, and he’s now successful, I’m not, and my mom wont hear it because he’s got success and a family, something I don’t.

I was ostracized from my family when I told them and wish I never had.

Re: What's your earliest traumatic memory?
That's a tough one since there were so many in my dysfunctional childhood back in the 1950's.

Here are 4 distinct memories that all happened when I was 4-6:

1. Being chased by a Bullsnake before my Dad killed it with a hoe. That same spring I saw my first tornado from about a mile away as we all dashed to a neighbor's house for shelter... and everybody just yelled to "keep up!" instead of helping me. I've never been so terrified since. I learned a little bit about the survival of the fittest that day.

2. Watching my parents/brothers brutally slaughtering Chickens and laughing/joking as they sprayed the blood everywhere. My Brother was especially sadistic that day as he put the bird's necks under a pipe, stood on it and jerked their body up, entrails dangling as the head was ripped from the body... and my Mom cackled at his creativity. More innocence lost.

3. Crying when I didn't want to go to church one Sunday and having my Mother yell, "shut up or I'll really give you something to bawl about!" -and then slamming a car door on my hand to prove her point... a few minutes later she was singing hymns and acting like nothing had ever happened as I whimpered in the pew next to her. That was the day I learned to hate not only church but also religion. And I have a crooked little finger to this day as a constant reminder of when I first understood how close cruelty and hypocrisy really are.

4. Having my brother [who was ten years older] walk up to me one day holding a single-edged razor blade and saying, "I think I'll cut you" before he sliced open a gash on my leg. I still have a 3" scar to prove it. Oddly,I don't remember the pain, only the anger I felt as he walked away laughing, leaving me bleeding on the floor.

And you'd better believe I have several more memories just like those.

Meanwhile, while all this was happening I'd watch TV shows like LEAVE IT TO BEAVER, see very different families and wonder what I had done so wrong to end up in my own.

And it wasn't until I was in my 50's -and after a couple of years of therapy- that I was finally able to shed that notion.

0h six i think,when i had a frontal lobe surgery for having too much snot coming out of my nose and after sedation gas they just put a thing in my right nostral..,hurted a week and the night witch was also awsome
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77967593


Around 4-5 I had to get my nose cauterized which basically involved sticking a thin paintbrush with glue up your nostril to seal the membrane or blood vessel whatever.

That would definitely be my answer to this I hated having to go for that. I'll give the doctor credit he was probably as careful as could be and it's ironic everyone has now had to go through this some people dozens of times for covid swabs.

Luckily I only had to be swabbed once since the pandemic.
