If you're asking for "concrete instances", you'll never be in the right mindset to "visualize" or understand anything about me or what I've been through. My life is a life without meaningless, resource-sapping detail.
People are asking for examples because you cite some very extreme reasons. "Being killed" people out to kill you...those are extreme. Knowing why you say these things or at least an experience helps us better understand. Its not useless noise.
