Today, I told my mom that I was taking antidepressants because I hate myself. She said "That's not surprising. You hate everybody. And, you're kind of a bitch." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I told my mom that I struggle with depression. She then told me that she thinks that I always seem to suck the life out of a room. FML
Today, I told my mom I loved her and she asked if I was going to kill myself. FML
Today, my mom told me I'm the reason she's going to kill herself one day. FML
Today, I asked my mom why nobody likes me. She reeled off about a dozen reasons. 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
Today, I approached my mother for comfort, because I've been feeling depressed and unloved by anyone lately. She replied, “Honestly, I stopped loving you back when you were a toddler.” FML
Today, going to my psychiatrist's appointment for my PTSD and depression, my mother yelled about how useless I am and how I torture her existence with my "abnormalities." She told the doctor how much I've improved and become such a delight at home for her and our family. FML
Today, my mom said that if I wasn't her daughter, she probably wouldn't even like me. 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
Today, my mother told me to 'quit having a pity party'. I was just diagnosed with depression. I've lost my boyfriend, my job, my academic standing, and I just got rejected from every graduate school I applied for. And my mother thinks I'm a cry baby. Great. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

Depression can both result and be caused by you focusing on your self. Changing the way you think is apparently more effective than the medication available. Hurting other people that love whoever's affected, e.g. a depressive not caring about the most horrible thing, suicide, and what it does to everyone around them. I see families collpase and become suicidal themselves after someone commits suicide: it's like a murder, but the person you're sad about is also the person you're angry at. They blame themselves and each other. Another theory is that it's self-directed anger. Are you being a bitch to YOURself? She told you this, now do you believe her, and why? Are you looking at the negative or positive in what she's saying? Good luck and hopefully your life isn't messed up. People have been through this and have become better people, to themselves and to others.

Ummm you guys are horrible. Do you not know how serious depression is?? Honestly? Take a psych class and get a life. It's not her fault, and her mom isn't being the least bit supportive. She's only triggering her depression.

Gently dealing with some people doesn't help sometimes. I sometimes wish I had the guts to go 'You know what? You're being a bitch and that's actually quite easily fixable' as a 'WAKE UP!' call to a friend. Your pain doesn't justify hurting everyone else. Just giving the other side of the argument.

Ignore her. I don't know you so I cant give you a really persepctive on things but if its bad enough so that you are taking antidepressants than your mom is just rude and annoying. Don't let what she says get to you. Is it just me or do a lot mothers tend to be really rude at the worst of times?

I agree with #10. In reference to a lot of other FMLs as well. People seem to always assume the worst (in terms of factors that aren't explained/elaborated in the FML), then say "You deserved it".

#38 - However, that doesn't work for someone who's clearly beyond the "Get a grip" stage. It only serves to make the person feel worse. Honestly, what makes people think they can help improve someone's self-esteem and self-worth by being an asshole and making them feel more horrible than they already did? Clearly, common sense =/= common. That said, I'm not sure I buy this one. If it's true, I'm sorry for you.
