Today, my mom took me to an AA meeting because she said I needed help. I have never tried alcohol in my life, and told them this. I was then harangued by the "instructor" because apparently one of the signs of alcoholism is denial. FML

Today, I had to confess to my mother that I was too hungover to take her to her AA meeting. FML
Today, my alcoholic mother decided to finally check herself into rehab. She did it while drunk, and flirted with the front attendant. FML
Today, I was feeling sick and ended up throwing up as soon as I got home. My mother's first question was an accusatory, "What have you been drinking?" I was returning from the AA meeting I have been attending for over a month. I go because I'm afraid I'll become an alcoholic like her. FML
Today, my once-alcoholic mom told me that she would sell me for a shot of vodka. FML
Today, as usual, my mom got shitfaced and started berating me for something. This time, it was for missing a therapy appointment. Not only am I unable to drive, it was her appointment. For her alcoholism. FML
Today, my parents staged a family intervention and gave me the grandest bollocking I've ever experienced in all my 22 years of life. They did this because my sister showed them a photo of me jokingly posing with three bottles of Bud Light at a party. Apparently, I'm an alcoholic in denial. FML
Today, at dinner, I accidentally let it slip that I'd taken a small sip of alcohol a few years ago and hated it. My extremely strict parents are now trying to get me into rehab. FML
Today my mother met my in-laws for the first time. She had been an alcoholic and had us sent to foster care 15 years ago. My husband told his parents this behind my back a while ago. When they asked her about it, she denied everything. His entire family now thinks I lie for attention. FML
Today, my mom left the house in the morning, leaving me alone. I called and I got no answer. Hours later, she finally answers one of my calls and tells me that she'd been in an AA meeting all this time. Happy, I tell her to come home. She came home drunk. FML
Today, I confronted my mom about her drinking problems. After I blurted everything out, she completely denied it. She did this as she was drinking a huge cup full of vodka. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You'll need to start drinking to spend quality family time with your mom. I hope your sister's not a crack *****.

maybe mom's the one in denial and is trying to pass her own problems onto her son.

On the upside you're mom cares about you. On the other hand, she's a paranoid woman who needs to back the **** off. Go through with the meetings though, you might learn something.

true, but a little ridiculous to keep going to the meetings. OPs mom needs to back off a little bit
KatrinaKitten 16
24- your* :) 41- Yeah, but from how it's going now, it seems that resistance doesn't work very well for OP.

Are you kidding me? I would tell my mom to back the hell off, and I she didn't, child services is but a call away
KatrinaKitten 16
59, Nice. Child services won't get you anywhere unless you're being significantly abused or neglected. You obviously don't know anything about either institution, so chill the **** out.

Did the vodka freeze in the fridge? If yes, that's what made your mom suspicious.
