Today, I was having a panic attack so I called my parents. My brother answered to say my parents couldn't come to the phone because they were watching 24. Its ten o'clock and 24 is not on now. They were watching 24 on TiVo and couldn't pause it to come to the phone. FML

I'm up here

Today, apparently my parents called 911 because I wasn't answering their phone calls, so they thought something was wrong. I was in the bathroom and didn't bring my phone, so I wouldn't distract myself and ended up sitting there forever. Looks like that wasn't the right choice. FML

Today, I was home alone and tried to make some popcorn so I could watch a movie. Thirty minutes later, my parents came home and found me talking to the firemen. FML

Today, I was in agonizing pain and couldn't move. My parents said they couldn't take me to the ER until the football game on TV was over. FML

Today, I was babysitting a 5 year old boy. When I was on the phone with my mom, he called 911 and started to cry. When I got off the phone the police were at the door. It turns out that the "emergency" was that the VCR was not working. FML

Today, I received a message from front desk that my concerned father is trying to contact me. I call only to hear that my parents were freaking out that I wasn't answering my phone. They saw me 9 hours ago. They were going to call the police. I'm in college and also don't live with them anymore. FML

Panic in the streets of London

By iiiiiiii - 22/06/2022 14:00

Today, like every day, everyone blew up my phone at once and I began having a panic attack. Because I didn’t respond immediately, I was called rude and a bad person. Turning off my phone isn’t an option either, because my mom will come in my room and cuss me out for not responding to her texts. FML

Today, I was babysitting for my mom's coworkers two little boys. they went to bed around 9 and I was watching a movie on HBO. I fell asleep before the movie was over. I woke up to the parents walking into the house. I looked at the TV, and porn was on. FML

I don't know, leave me alone

Today, my mom and dad went off somewhere for some alone time together. My mom had apparently turned her phone off and my dad left his at home. In that span of time, my brother had accidentally locked himself out of his house, and my sister was also trying to get a hold of them, and now are asking me where they're at. FML

Today, my parents left me several frantic voicemails early this morning about the hurricane, totally in a panic that I wasn’t safe. I called them when I woke up and told them I was fine. They were actually angry that I wasn't in the eye of the storm, because they “worried for nothing.” FML

Everyone I know who has panic attacks is nervous and edgy and has no idea how to take things in stride. Take a deep breath and thank whatever god you believe in that you're not in africa being hunted down because of your ethnicity, or you're not in jail for a crime you didn't commit, or you don't have one of any number of real problems. Get a grip and learn to deal with your problems yourself, because even if someone's willing to help you, nobody really wants to.

I have the feeling that this is not the first time you've called home with a panic attack... I'm betting you're such a drama queen that they give it all the attention it deserves.

You're starting to sound like Bauer's dramatic and tiresome Wife (R.I.P.) and mouth-breathing daughter. Somebody call a Waaaaaaaaabulance!!!!! /Bauer and Almeda are the authors and editors of B.A.M. - Bad Ass Monthly. //Seriously, panic attacks suck. Don't wish them on anyone.

#28: you aren't funny. #43: go play in some traffic. Dude 24 isn't interesting, I wish ER was still on. Or The Secret Life of the American Teenager, yeahhh that was an amazing show! But it really isn't next time the 'rents call say you are too busy masturbating to talk. Or say that you are in an interting part of a book and you can't talk either. That is ****** up though. I'd bitch them out for weeks on end.

#56 really? The Secret Life of the American Teenager? really? I get ER (great show) but you'd choose a show that's had one season with Molly Ringwald about a preggers teen over Kiefer Sutherland and John Voight? Come on... really?

#60: dude I'm 14, it appeals to me. & ER appealed to me because I'd watch it with my mom but I don't even know who Kiefer Sutehrland is and I've tried watching 24. Booooringg.
