Today, I began to choke on a large pill while my mom was in the room. Hoping that she would help me, I began to make a lot of noise. After she completely ignored me, I threw my body over a chair, saving my life. At this point my mother asks me to shut up because she can't hear her friend. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I had one of the worst panic attacks in years. I was worried nobody cared about me and that I had completely messed up my life. I was hyperventilating and crying hysterically. My mom walked by my room, looked at me, and said, "If you're going to make those noises, at least shut the door." FML
Today, while sitting next to my mom at a restaurant, she told me to stop moving and making so much noise because, "It's distracting." The noise I was making was me breathing. I'm not even allowed to breathe. Guess I'll die. FML
Today, I crawled into my mom's room to tell her my stomach was in massive pain. She ended up throwing me out of the room while spraying me with Lysol. My appendix was about to burst and I needed surgery. FML
Today, while my friends were over, my mom took too many of her pills and walked around the house nude. She then bit me. FML
Today, I went to Walmart with my mom. At the checkout line I was eating a bag of chips as my mom bought her stuff. I inhaled while eating and I started to choke. The cashier asked me if I was OK. My mom just waved her hand, and said, "Sometimes she does that for attention, ignore her." FML
Today, I was singing while lying upside down chewing gum. My dad was trying to focus on the current football game and hushed me. I yelled, "No!" resulting in my gum becoming lodged in my windpipe. I shut up after all. FML
Today, I was drinking from a water bottle while in a lecture. The water caught in my throat and it felt like I was choking to death. Instead of asking me if I was okay or trying to help, the guy sitting next to me told me to shut up. FML
Today, my daughter wanted to show me the tooth she had just lost. As I was in a rush to leave for work, I quickly picked up and swallowed my pill that was on the kitchen table. It was only until I looked back down at the table did I see not only my pill, but one extremely angry daughter glaring at me. FML
Today, I choked on oatmeal, watered-down soupy oatmeal. It seemed to get stuck halfway down. I chucked up several spoonfuls. My wife was oblivious to all the noise I was making because she had her over-the-ear headphones on, listening to some stupid YouTube video. FML
Today, my mother took a bunch of sleeping pills, then went driving. I followed her and dialed 911. Now she thinks that I was "trying to get her arrested," and she refuses to talk to me ever again. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I'm going to assume that by "making a lot of noise," you meant banging on stuff and maybe throwing something, because if you were vocalizing, you weren't really choking. But still, I know how scary that feeling is, and it sucks your mom was a bitch about it.

You know... it's sad that people can be oblivious to these things. Your mom may not have noticed or possibly didn't take you seriously. That would seem a lot better than her ignoring you... that's just horrible. I choked on a french fry before :|, while having lunch with friends.... no one tried helping me, they thought I was joking and looked at me with confusion.

Same thing happened to me. I was taking one of those pills that are supposed to dissolve in the water and I drank the water and it was still there. I was choking and my mom said "What the hell is wrong with you? Kids are so weird." It wasn't until I started pounding my own chest did she notice......

I empathise with you a hundred times over. Examples: a) When sitting at a small table with mother, father, brother and sister, I began to choke on my food in an almost deserted restaurant. When I can't breathe at all, start spluttering, trying to save myself, and trying to get their attention, they magically don't notice. I had to pull the food out of my own throat. They still didn't notice. b) I once had a severe asthma attack in my own garden. My inhaler was in my room and my siblings were there with me. I collapsed, then somehow managed to get enough air to stay conscious yet not be able to move. My siblings notice, but my brother goes in to watch TV. My sister gives me a lecture about how *I* am cold hearted (I had serious self-esteem issues at the time) before joining him. Later, after it eventually eases up a little and I manage to drag myself in and get the inhaler myself, I tell my mother what happened, she tells me they did the right thing because she was on the phone. And that's just the tip of the iceberg...
