    I've not gone through anything too wild, but here's a few…

    1. When my parents were getting a divorce, my mom moved us out into an apartment. My dad came by, enraged. There was a bit of an argument and he pulled her outside the front door and pressed her up against it. Since the door opened outward and he was pushing her into the door with his full body weight, I wasn't able to open the door. I started screaming at him because I was afraid he was going to kill her and I couldn't get to her. I was trapped inside not sure if I was about to watch my mom die. Thankfully he didn't and he eventually let her go, but I had no idea in that moment what he was capable of. She has been divorced from him for I think almost 10 years now which is good!

    2. Some other time there was a lot of turbulence on a plane ride and I'm a bit of a wuss lol.

      For your second point, I’ve flown many times to the point where turbulence doesn’t bother me BUT I didn’t fly much for a 3-4 years. The last time I flew I drank a ton of coffee because it was an early morning flight (not a morning person) and let me tell you, every five seconds I thought we were going down.
