two that I can think of

when my FIL said something so batshit insane I realised that moment he and the rest of the fam were in a cult

and then much later doing CBT when my doc showed me that the people i thought cared for me had never done a nice or kind or supportive thing ever ( I am lucky I am past that , I have the seagoons now 😊 )
