What is something someone said to you that hit you the hardest?

awhile ago my mother more or less kicked me out for becoming terribly depressed following having a seizure while i was driving and crashing my car into a telephone pole and having a heart attack 3 months later. i was forced to quit my job and couldn’t drive anymore so i lost most of my freedoms in a short amount of time. stayed in my room for probably 5 or 6 months, stopped eating (i lost ~20 lbs in 3 months), stopped taking care of myself, etc. one day she barged in my room and threatened to take my door off the hinges instead of having an iota of sympathy. other days she would come into my room solely to call me names and berate me. she threatened to take me off her health insurance plan and went so far as to see if she could sign me up for medicaid, then came into my room and explained the process would take a few months and by then i would be gone, living somewhere else. i wasn’t even eligible. then she started coming in my room and yanking my comforter off my bed, yelling at me to get up. yelling at me to “get over it or get out.” calling me a bitch. telling me she hated me and hated me being there. stole my laptop and my phone (both things i paid for myself), saying she could take them because she paid for them anyway and hid them from me. that only lasted about a day though because it started a fight between her and my father because he knew i paid for them myself. that was the only time he stuck up for me during this 6-7 month ordeal. the icing on the cake was when my mother, ever the narcissist, told me if i hated my family so much, i needed to move out. what set her off that time was me missing a phone call from her (not intentionally) while i was hanging out with my friends. i’d gone to stay at my friend’s house and when i came back home a couple days later, the clothes i owned that would fit in 4 plastic tubs were packed up and everything else in my room (not just clothes) was thrown away. luckily my boyfriend asked if i wanted to just move in with him, so i did. haven’t spoken to my mother or father in 3 years.

it doesn’t upset me anymore, but it used to. it’s clear to me that my parents don’t feel like they did anything wrong, or that they should apologize. they obviously don’t want to repair our relationship or even acknowledge that i still exist. they don’t care about me, so i don’t care about them. i hope one day you get to a point where it doesn’t hurt you anymore.
