  1. House burned down when I was like 13. Lost everything. With insurance, a lot of things were replaced but it was never really the same. I think it was just because of the age / time in my life when it happened but it really seemed like a turning point.

  2. Im still in my childhood but it doesnt feel like it anymore, A couple days ago my friend showed me a horrifying video of a guy blowing his brains out on facebook live, I now have an irrational fear of facebook live and my friend opening discord on his phone, I am scarred for life

  3. When I had to move across the country for the first of two times due to my father’s job. I was just about to turn 9.

    I lost my innocence altogether when the Covid-19 pandemic started. I was 16, coming on 17 at the time.

  4. I skipped school one morning in 8th grade because my anxiety was kicking up and my stomach hurt.

    But my mom was upset I was calling out a lot and had me start painting the hallway at home so I’d be doing something.

    So I got started, about 5 minutes in there was a knock at the door. It was the police. I sat around the corner and listened as they told my mother and her bf that my older brother had passed away the night before in a car accident. Never broke harder in my life, beginning of the end.

  5. I can’t think of a moment, I don’t know if my childhood has *really* ended yet. I’m 21. I’m reading through the comments and even though I also lost people near to me at 6 and 12 and 15 and was bullied and started masturbating to porn at eleven and have seen a lot of disturbing videos I still feel like a kid. I remember when I was about 17 and my therapist told me that I’m behind my peers in a lot of milestones, like independence and relationships and I was just like “but I’m still a child! I have no interest in all that!”
