This is a very personal question, but I'll go ahead and answer it.
In 1992, I was taken hostage along with around 80 other students in May of my senior year of High School. I was there for 6 hours of the 8 hour ordeal. 4 people were killed, many others wounded. It wasn't as bad a Columbine or Virginia Tech, but it was horrific.
I don't know if I ever really overcame it so much as incorporated it into my life. Had it not been for that incident, I would not have done the many many many things in my life that I have. I would not be the person that I am, or have the perspectives that I do. I'm not saying that I'd do it all over again, but I accept that it happened, I accept my part in it, I accept the deaths, and the nightmares. It took me a long time to stop thinking of myself as a victim, and more as a person who learns from life.
I appreciate my mortality, and I am no longer afraid, and I am no longer angry.

I escaped an extremely abusive relationship where attempts were made on my life several times.
It was the longest 10 months of my life.
It has made me stronger ONLY in the perspective that I now trust no one.
I'm not sure that I've overcome it at all, I still live in fear of this person I still think I see him and still have nightmares. It's been 11 years.

The worst situtation I've been in is having to live with my dad, and him putting me down all the time.
I'm GONNA over come it, by getting my education, and making something of myself!

I was a Spirit and something happened to me and then I was a body. I overcame this dispairing situation by remembering that I was a Spirit-not a body!

I was a Christian for 12 years.
I answered the call of my ancestral Gods and found Asatru.
