Sounds nasty!
A lot of things were bad but nothing I could really pin point to or I want to share here other then I get screwed over all the time.

Wow.
It's not really as painful as you think it is. However, you will come to realize how much you have lost in that single moment over the course of a few years.
Yep. I can explain in detail just what happened. Brains are funny. My memory switches from first person while I try and hold it together and then to third person and I watch myself collapse against a wall.
A close second would be the events leading up to, and including, first time I was committed.

April 2009, I got my back surgery.
I was in the ICU for like 5 days, and the hospital 7 days after that. The whole summer I couldn't do anything, my back hurt like hell, I threw up blood once. It was terrible.
But one good thing, I've got an awesome scar all the way down my back, or yeah and I don't have scoliosis anymore!
Edit - 2 Rods and 14 Screws in my back, and it doesn't set off the airport sensors
How did you injure your back?

It was to correct his scoliosis.

Most of 1995 and 1996. Mid-university depression, basically. Triggered by a bunch of factors real and imagined, and certainly not helped by several of my best friends going off on an exchange program for a whole year. Managed to claw my way out of the pit and eventually not flunk out, but I did need an extra year to get my degree and my final GPA ended up being pretty bad (not that that mattered very much after I got my first post-uni job, but it probably did contribute to the several months I spent unemployed before that happened).

Getting laid off is the worst moment of my life, followed by in close second getting cheated on and then dumped.

Brother in law's motorcycle accident in 2004. He lived. But he traded two wheels on the road for four wheels everywhere else. It felt like he died. Apparently it's a thing that spinal cord injuries hit families the same way deaths do, in terms of emotional trauma. Nothing else in my life, and I can tell some stories, compared to that. I still remember not hugging him goodbye just two days before, thinking "whatever we hug all the time, it's not like I won't hug him again". Well, not a full standing hug that doesn't have things in the way.

Losing both my parents within 2 weeks to cancer at the age of 19.
My first serious girlfriend committing suicide.
Both events changed and shaped my life and still weigh heavily on me after many years.

Wacky ward stay in 2007.
Changed me for the better though, at least a little bit.

I think a former colleague had a similar problem, but he didn't have surgery, but found that doing yoga helped to strengthen his back and correct the problem.

Don't make me destroy you
A few years back, I was at an aquarium with family. We went out to the car for lunch and there was a homeless guy out there asking for food or money and when he came near me I just looked away and ignored him. I don't know why I did that. I just froze and I didn't do anything. I have never been so ashamed of myself in my entire life. I cried about it all night and I still get really upset when I think about it.
Actually, it probably ties with when I had to put down my dog. That was pretty awful.

Well, mine was really really bad, and the curve was like 60 degrees or something.

Man, that was quite a first post. I am genuinely sorry that happened to you.

I think his was "mild" if you could ever call such a problem mild.

No way I feel comfortable revealing such details about myself. How can you all so calmly reveal the most intimate heartbreaking moments of your life?
And another reason I can't reveal is because I'm not sure what's the worst thing to happen in my life.
