    What's the biggest insult you could possibly think of that someone could use against you that would genuinely hurt you to such a degree that it damages you? You obviously don't have to share it directly, but what it relates to would be nice.
     
    I can see how some people would use that kind of info to their advantage.

    Anyway, I have nothing to say. Insults just don't affect me anymore.
     
    Attacks against my ego hurt me the most, as I've realized its detrimentality to my existence and as of recent I feel I have a lot better handle on it, though other people beg to differ.

    I kind of feel like an addict of sorts that's being ridiculed and judged because of my problem and completely forgotten in the help I need. Still, though, if it weren't for certain people really helping me I wouldn't have changed, so I guess it can't all be true. :)
     
    Say something demeaning about either my transgenderism or my paranoid schizophrenia and you're dead a really really mean person. :<
     
    It really depends on who's saying it and their relationship to me. If it's someone that has gotten better grades than me insulting my intelligence, I'll be very hurt, but if it's some teenager or someone who is clearly not as smart, the insult doesn't sting as I know that they aren't in a position to judge accurately.

    I have a major case of impostor syndrome as well, so if someone insulted something like my programming, where I often worry that it's not good enough, I would probably be pretty hurt. I avoid that though by often not working on coding with other people so no one has a reason to say anything about it.
     
    I guess this isn't really an insult, but if someone were to say they hated me, I'd feel pretty terrible. I try to be a people pleaser and avoid confrontation, so especially if I'm not blatantly pissing people off, I'd be pretty hurt for someone to tell me they hated me.
     
    Hm, people insulting my badminton skills would be one of them because it's something that I've been working on 5-6 years to hone them into what they are now, and I'd like to think that I'm quite talented at the sport. Ones from strangers who think they are better than myself, and actually aren't, are especially insulting. Another touchy subject would be my weight. Stranger or not, I take offense to negative comments about my weight since I've gone through a couple anorexic phases, and have had issues stabilizing my weight over the last couple years.

    I imagine it would be something to do with my weight. You could probably take "too skinny" a bit further, I'm not going to though.

    At this moment in time I am recovering from a mental illness and going through weight-gain recovery, so this would be something which would greatly upset me, too. It really hurt my feelings when some girls in a supermarket were whispering, referring to me as an 'anorexic weirdo'...without even knowing me. :(
     
    "You're the worst, meanest, least caring boyfriend I've ever had."

    I pride myself on caring and doing as much as I can for the people I'm with. And when someone says that to me it just destroys me and I don't leave the house or talk to anyone for a while.
     
    I don't take insults to heart. I like to think that the person doing the insulting has absolutely no idea what they're talking about. thankfully I don't get insulted too often so I don't frequently have to deal with it. (0:
     
    Anything that would make me feel worthless, like having tried my hardest for someone/something and being told it wasn't good enough would hurt.
     
    Insults don't do much to me, but I can think of a few that people have said to me or things that I've said to people have actually hurt.
    Spoiler:

    There's some more, but those are the only ones I feel like putting up here. If you took offence from any of those, I'm sorry.
     
    It takes an awful lot to insult me and have it actually hold any ground.

    I'm not one to care for the unkind opinions of others, nor do I take harsh words to heart. Because to me the only opinion that really matters is my own. I take most everything with a grain of salt.

    The only instance where I could end up hurt by someone's words is if they are close to me, but even then it's hard to get under my skin.

    I'm pretty desensitized to say the least. :P
     
    Anything that furthers what my anxiety tells me.

    Also one instance in particular is that someone said I was being discriminatory towards a specific special need once. I felt really insulted because at the time, I was an elementary/special ed major and my main influence to go into that field was because of a boy with that specific special need. So how anyone could ever think I'd be discriminatory against that group really hurt. That being said though, accusing me of something I'm not or something I don't condone really bothers me.

    Call me crazy, deranged, negative, worthless, ugly, useless or a waste of space?

    I'll run away with tears in my eyes. I can't take that at all.

    That would hurt anybody D: I have the same issue though. There are times when I feel absolutely worthless, and that's my own mind thinking. I'd probably start having suicidal thoughts again if someone who I consider to be a close friend said that to me.
     
    A friend saying I am a dishonest, manipulative, back-stabbing careless person with an ugly personality puts me in the deep end.
    A professor saying I'm not intelligent nor talented enough to succeed puts me in the deep end.
    A supervisor or employer saying I'm not performing well enough puts me in the deep end.
    A parent saying I shouldn't have been born at all put me in the deep end.
