Today, I was invited to a counseling group for people with emotional problems. I brought the permission slip home for my mom to sign, only for her to accuse me of being a hypochondriacal, lazy, selfish bitch. And my friends wonder why I have problems. FML

Today, my mother threw a fit because the psychologist she got me suggested I visit a psychiatrist. Apparently, it's my fault because I "choose" to be so "crazy". FML

Today, my mom found out that I've been having counselling behind her back for the past 4 years. I broke down in tears explaining everything. Her response was, "So you go and bitch about me behind my back?!" And she wonders why I'm depressed. FML

Devious

Today, my manipulative mother got upset and started ignoring me. All because she lectured me about doing too much for other people, then proceeded to tell me all her problems, and I actually took her advice. Other people's problems are not my responsibility to fix. FML

ED much?

Today, my step-mom asked if I was having some eating issues. I admitted that maybe I've picked up some bad habits from friends and school. Now she won't stop bombarding me with self-help books and therapy websites. FML

Today, my mom tried to give me a pep talk to boost my self confidence. Somehow, it ended up turning into a conversation about how much of a loser I am and how I have no friends. FML

Thoughts and prayers

Today, my mom sent me to a counselor she knew "through the church" so that I could get some stressors off my chest. Worst idea ever. This "counselor" invalidated everything I had to say and basically told me to pray the issues away, all while completely ignoring me. FML

Pray the pain away

Today, I was crying to my sister that my therapist office messed up and didn’t schedule my appointment. My mom overheard and yelled, "You don’t need that mess anyway! Just pray about it!” Being raised with her religious fanaticism is what led to my insomnia, anxiety, depression, and guilt complex. FML

Get away from me

Today, my mother snapped and took her frustrations out on me. Whenever she has a problem with other family members, it falls on me because she can't show them her true face to them. And she wonders why I hide away all the time… FML

Today, my shrink diagnosed me as severely depressive, due to a lot of stress and yells at home. After the session, my parents argued about whose fault it was and then went on to yell at me for being depressive and wasting their money. FML

Hmm I might get a lot of hate.. but it sounds like a teenager who thinks the world is against them.. My mum used to talk to me like that and i really disliked her for it, but I realised she worked really hard to raise me, the stress made her impatient, and I'm not the best daughter.. I hope things work out between u and ur mum! ~~~

My mother is just like hers. She never took care of me. My father was barely there for me and I have extreme emotional problems. Counseling is great. I go to it myself. That's horrible of her Mom to say. I hope she's alright. So **** what you say, not everyone's parents are there for them in life.

Shouldn't that be "hypochondriacal"? Someone, please, correct me if I'm wrong.

Arrange a meeting with the leader to talk with you and your mom about why this would be good for you. Or just forge her signature.

I felt so sad when I first read this FML on the moderation process. I'm sorry OP, I'm sure there are other ways to go to the therapy session, talk to your school counselor. Good luck
