In a country of free-thinking, brainwashing is common word, with bad meaning. In China, some people even don't understanding the meaning of it, that is really a sad of brainwashing. It is a good word here, make me laugh...

I guess a good translation might be 无产阶级文化大革命?

Those are all serious, and some of them apply to humanity in general, some of them to individuals. Not everyone gets cheated on, so forth. I think one that is also serious, and individual, would have to be illness that shows no sign of stopping, be it physical or mental. It wears a person down.

The worst personal experiences in my opinion:

Betrayal by a person you trust implicitly.Eg; a parent,sibling, spouse or teacher.

For a child, the loss of parent.For and adult, the loss of a child or spouse.(includes end of a marriage)

The greatest single personal tragedy: The loss of hope and consequent despair.
