Today, my mom accused me of having an eating disorder, and I didn't correct her. Truth is, I lost weight after I went off the pill a year ago. I'm too embarrassed to tell my mom that I haven't had anyone in a year. FML

Same thing different taste
Today, after I skipped dessert for the third day in a row, my mom cornered me and accused me of being anorexic. I'm actually not far off being clinically obese and I'm just trying to diet, but nothing I say will convince her. She wants me to see a psychiatrist about a disorder I don't even have. FML
Missing the point 101
Today, I told my mom I lost 30 pounds because of an eating disorder. She told me to keep up the good work. FML
Today, I admitted to my parents that I have an eating disorder. Instead of trying to help, my mom stared at me and said, "Duh". FML
Today, a coworker complimented me on losing weight, and said that she wished she could drop a few pounds too. I was too embarrassed to tell her that the only reason I've lost weight is because I haven't been able to afford to eat. FML
Today, I felt sick to my stomach, so I told my mother I didn't want to eat dinner. She started accusing me of being anorexic, so I ate a little bit anyway to make her stop. I then threw up, only for her to take it as confirmation that I have an eating disorder. FML
Wow, thanks, I'm cured
Today, I told my mom that I'm bulimic and have been for a few years, and that I needed help. She responded by saying, "Well that's clearly not working for you. Why don't you try anorexia?" She then patted me on the head, smiled, and walked away. FML
Today, my mom asked me if I had an eating problem because I've been eating less. I only started eating less because she told me I ate too much. FML
Today, I finally broke down and told my mom that I'd relapsed with my eating disorder. She told me to quit whining and eat a burger, because she didn't want to pay for another therapy session. FML
Harsh words
Today, I told my mom that I think I’m anorexic and she told me she didn’t care. When I asked why, in disbelief she replied, "Honey, you are 5’3 and over 350 lbs, at this point you NEED to be anorexic." FML
Today, I decided I need help, so I confessed to my mother that I'm bulimic. After she looked it up online she started screaming at me for "Wasting food that I'm not paying for." FML

Wouldn't your mom see it as a good thing that you hadn't had sex in a year?

So your mom encourages *******? Hopefully you're using this time for self-discovery...

14 has nothing to do with this FML whatsoever, come off your high horse. no birth control is 100% effective, and that particular method is probably right up there with pulling out when it comes to getting accidently knocked up. we've all heard of it, it's just not reliable enough for most of us. as far as the FML, seriously, who is embarassed to tell their MOM that they're NOT having sex? i assume my mother knows i do, being as i'm married with a child, but i don't tell her about it, and she doesn't tell me about ******* my dad. parents don't want to think of their kids as sexual beings any more than we wanna think of our parents as such. it's just....gross.

Um, eating disorders are serious business and NOT something you just want to let people think you have, just for kicks or to keep a secret. Also, don't listen to #14.

how is this an FML? why would you even tell your mom when you have sex?

14, I...don't understand- No one sounded confused about her options on birth control. No one was arguing over the best way. So the fact that you just enlightened us on your "superior" method is just obnoxious and we're all a little dumber for having read it. Oh, and be careful stepping down from that high horse of yours, we'd hate to see you fall off and have to mingle with us little people! OP, nbd.

Having an eating disorder is preferable to not having sex for a year?

so you would rather have her think that you have an eating disorder?

OP - ...you went off the pill and *then* you complain about not having sex? That tells me that you're not even trying to have sex. Granted there are always condoms, I guess not everyone hates them as much as I do...
