The innocence of little children can’t be measured. When we are young we see the world through different eyes, but as we grow older our perspectives change drastically and some of our past memories get an entirely different meaning. We suddenly realize that some of the things we experienced as children, which seemed normal back then, were in fact frightening.
15 Reddit users shared the experience of some shocking and rather disturbing events from their past.
Read the below.
- My mother used never to want to get out of bed when I was 5, and she just kept saying she was sick. Finally, my stepdad took her to a hospital, where she stayed for nearly a month. I thought it was so cool that her hospital let her do arts and crafts all the time; plus, she got better and started doing arts and crafts with me, too when she got home.I remember telling her I wished to go to the hospital and draw all day. She sat me down and told me that she hoped I would never get sick like she did, but if I do, there’s nothing wrong with needing help to get better, even if you have to go somewhere for a little while to do it.It wasn’t until I was probably 13 that it clicked that the hospital she had gone to was a mental health hospital when I realized I didn’t want to get out of bed myself. But because of her, I’ve never felt shame about needing therapy when things are getting bad or even just to maintain a healthy mindset. © kenda1l / Reddit
- I thought everyone goes to jail or prison at least once in their life. It was quite a surprise to me when I moved out to the suburbs and met people who knew nothing about jail or prison. © Doggo6893 / Reddit
- Had a recurring dream/nightmare as a kid about a shadowy figure that would come through the walls of my parents’ room, but as long as I hid under the sheet I used to make a fort with, I’d be safe. I figured it was just a messed up dream for years until I found out from my dad when I got older that some dude had broken into our house when I was playing and tried to snatch me. My (8 months pregnant with my sister at the time) mum chased him out and down the road with a metal pipe from the vacuum cleaner. © FakeSchwarzenbach / Reddit
