Today, I'd had it with my mom's addiction to weed, so I told her to choose between me or the weed. I'm currently looking on Craigslist for an apartment. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my mom told me she's a drug addict, sold my bed to buy meth, and then lectured me about how I should be okay with it. FML
Today, my mom found my weed stash and went berserk, grounding me and saying she's going to have my bedroom door removed. Less than an hour later, I found her laughing and smoking the same stash with my dad in the backyard. FML
Today, I came from a 12-hour shift to find my clothes and stuff outside, and the locks changed. I called my mom to let me in and she told me, “Hell the fuck no, I’m not having a drug addicted junkie up in my house! You’re no longer my daughter!” and hung up. Apparently, she found my stash of weed. FML
Today, my crazy drug-addict mother kicked me out of the house after siding with my crazy, drug-addict aunt, who'd just threatened to slit my throat. FML
Today, my mom called me a druggie after she found out I smoked weed once. She's now threatening to sell my car, tell my boss, and ban me from seeing my fiancée. I'm 24. FML
Today, my mother told me she thinks it is time for me to move into my own place. I agreed with her and went to look at studios/flats online. She later came into my room, saw me looking at places and then got pissed off at me, saying that I hate her for wanting to leave her. FML
Today, my mom told me she was getting tired of the smell of marijuana in the house. So I confessed and told her I'll never bring it home again. She was talking about my neighbors. FML
Today, I found out my roomie has lost her only source of income. This means I'm responsible for all the bills and the rent. I would kick her out and get someone else, but she's my mother. FML
Today, my mother yet again chose to put my brother's junkie of an ex-girlfriend's needs and happiness above mine, despite the fact that she's stolen thousands of dollars and anything else of value from my mom's house. FML
Today, my pill-popping mom, committing disability fraud and stealing from me, called the cops on me, and dragged the landlord into it, is now getting both of us evicted. All this because she'd rather live homeless with her drug problem than to get the help she needs, which I can't provide anymore after 10 years. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Yes, like letting her adult children live at home rent-free while they hassle her about her fun habits.

While it is true that you aren't addicted to the actual chemical THC in marijuana, you can become "addicted" to the effects it creates. Here's a really crappy example: you don't become addicted to being held at gunpoint by muggers, but you can get addicted to the adrenaline rush, so to get your fix, you'll walk around seedy parts of town with money hanging out your ass to get that rush again.

it's not addictive. many people use it for a quality of life issue. after all every one must admit it is less harmful to your own body than alcohol and nicotine. weed needs to be decriminalized nation wide!!!!!!

You definitely deserved it. First of all, instead of seeking attention go spend some time with your mother (maybe she wants that from you). Next, to all the critics of marijuana, have some sense. Its not weed that hooks a person, its how that person is.

You can't be addicted to weed fyi. Maybe you're just a shitty kid.

weed is a miracle herb. not only is it used by people throughout the world for spiritual, medicinal and recreational purposes SINCE HUMANITY BEGAN. marijuana has never killed anybody like heroin, alcohol, cocaine, meth, PRESCRIPTION DRUGS, or tobacco/nicotine. yes there is a certain stamina ascribed to "potheads" that they smell bad, are stupid and lazy, and just want to lie around the house getting high, but if you can't appreciate that the stereotype is wrong then, well, enjoy going through the rest of your life misjudging people and probably having no friends if not becoming friends with the wrong people. a lot of "potheads" are kind, hard-working, even brilliant people. artists, writers, lawyers, doctors, teachers, masons, entrepreneurs, etc. maybe your mom has a problem in her life that causes her to feel pain or stress, perhaps leading her to feel a need to get stoned more often than usual. i'd guess she's probably stressed out about having such a closed-minded offspring living in her house with her. or, does she have arthritis? or suffering any other kind of pain? a lot of older people - even ones who didn't smoke when they were younger - will use it because it is a painkiller (good enough to help even cancer patients), or because it relieves nausea. it also calms the nerves, and anorexics are often encouraged to use it so they "get the munchies" and eat. get a grip on reality buddy if you ever want to have a decent relationship with your mother, or anyone else important to you.

Ironic to make a point that weed doesn't make one stupid yet you mean stigma, not stamina. Also, people stop arguing. Weed is habit forming, I step around the word addictive because it makes weed smokers aggressive that being a symbol of addiction can be ignored for nkw. Mostly here to state that the op had a right to request his mother to stop is because for right reasons or wrong, it's illegal, I don't know about you but it's always hard to bear when you have to bail your parent out for possesion.

There are no addictive qualities about pot, you idiots. It's a choice to do it or not. Unless you know what you're talking about, you probably want to keep it off the Internet.

Well....that was dumb...it's just some pot. YDI for giving your mother an ultimatum. She's your mom, a grown adult capable of making her own decision. Have fun looking for a new place to love.

Something wrong with her if she's addicted, I don't know anyone that's addicted to pot

Seeing as how theres no downside to marijuana other than it cost money I would say your an uptight pussy. Get over yourself and let your mother enjoy herself. At least she's not addicted to alcohol or nicotine... Ya know things that could actually hurt her.
