Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my friend broke ties with me after I came out of the hospital from attempted suicide. She was the one who called the police for me to go in there in the first place. FML
Today, I opened up to my best friend about my depression. Her response: "If you're so depressed, why don't you just kill yourself?" FML
Today, my best friend thought it would be funny push me off my bike. He thought it was even funnier when the paramedic accidentally dropped me. FML
Today, on Facebook, someone wrote a status implying that she was going to kill herself. I called a mutual friend, asking to check up on her. The next status the girl puts up said, "Someone thought I was going to commit suicide! Haha what a loser!" FML
Today, my girlfriend's best friend told me she was in hospital after having made a suicide attempt. In shock, I had a panic attack and ended up in the hospital myself. Turns out it was all a lie to see whether or not I was committed to the relationship. FML
Today, I tried to tell my dad that I was really struggling with my mental health and didn't think I could stay alive much longer. He laughed. This comes after telling my "best friend" last week and having to wait three days for a reply. FML
Today, my best friend’s parents told me they’re gonna take me to court and sue me for “all I got.” Turns out, he'd committed suicide after I got in a relationship with someone else. Apparently, he’s had feelings for me for a while and couldn’t handle that fact. FML
Today, my best friend promised me that she'd be there after a rough night the night before. Hours later, I did some digging and found out that she went ahead and called another group of friends behind my back, and then told me to stop being a baby when I figured it out. FML
Today, my best friend decided she wanted to tell my boyfriend about the time I pissed myself laughing at her house. When she was telling the story I ended up laughing so hard, that I pissed myself again. FML
Today, I finally caved and told a friend about my suicide note. She demanded that I promise I wouldn't follow through, but how could I when I was writing it no more than a few minutes before I joined a call with her? The funny thing is, most of that note was me trying to comfort my friends and family for when I'm gone. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

How? Seems to me the only way in doing that is actually successfully doing suicide.

I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

So commit suicide and one-up OP's attention-seeking best friend. (I'm kidding, of course).

I do agree that feeling down b/c someone tried to kill themselves better than u is ridiculous

I don't see a point in that. At the end of the day, you're both still alive.

My ex best friend used to do that all the time. Once I was telling my friends how I had just been diagnosed with sleep apnoea and she started saying things like "That's nothing, I have insomnia. Insomnia is way worse than sleep apnoea". Funniest thing about it was that she didn't even have insomnia. Long story short: Some people are idiots. Learn to laugh at it and you'll be better off for it :)

I think after OP explained how depressed they were and how they almost killed themselves, the "friend" probably said something like "I know exactly how you feel I was also really depressed when my boyfriend dumped me" or something like that.

I don't get how you OP are jealous of this. Why the ****!! Is this something you feel like bragging about??! Seriously what the hell is wrong with you? Find some new friends and quit making suicide something you feel the need to brag about.

That's going to be hard to beat without killing yourself and not being able to savor your victory. Maybe you ought to take up serial murder to make impressive stories with big numbers.

I thought Fml's were supposed to be funny .. This is sad :- sorry that either of u felt the need to attempt taking ur own lives , life is a beautiful gift and ur the only one who can make it worth living .

There are indeed some FMLs that are very sad and deal with serious stuff (this is not the first FML that addresses suicide in a sad way, for example). I don't think they're funny at all.

#55, the funny part is that the OP's biggest problem is his loss of sympathy due to his friend's more spectacular story. You'd think that issues that would drive him to suicide would be a little more serious than a loss of pity from those around him. I find that kinda funny.

Who's actually dumb enough to commit suicide anyway?

Excuse me, but people who attempt or commit suicide are in more emotional pain than you can even comprehend. If you don't understand it, don't call it stupid.

I'm sorry to hear that OP if u can't even succeed with taking your life then your future doesn't look very hopeful. Unless you did it for attention just like how you told your friends that you failed at taking your life to seek attention
