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

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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.

Cannabis is a safe medicine for 95% of those who use it but like all medicines it isn't for everyone. As someone who smokes medicinally and has done research in the area, and seen first hand the positive influence it can have on someones life, i wonder if mother dearest used for a different problem. Perhaps some compasson? Ask her why she's smoking (something that has never caused a death and helps substitute for harder damaging addictive drugs), rather than judge and condemn.

Haha wow. You can't be addicted to weed. There is no addictive chemical in it. If you do it too often for too long it doesn't even get you high anymore. Maybe your mom is mentally addicted, but she could easily quit if she wanted to. She obviously doesn't want to though. Don't call it her weed "addiction" though.

You are an idiot. Your mom is awesome, there is nothing wrong with her smoking some weed.

I mean that sucks that your mom chose that over you. That's wrong. But it's just cause she really likes smoking.

all of you guys saying weed isn't addicting and giving OP a hard time, are crazy! Weed can lead up to other drugs, I have delt with a ton of dope heads and you saying weed is the best and harmless drug. Well you just wait till you get busted by the cops, set in there with all the cho mos and wife beaters see how you like that.

You basically said, weed can be blamed for people doing other drugs, and weed is harmful because it is illegal. If that's true you could say it is contact with people which lead to doing meth and such, because it is other people that introduce you to new things such as drugs as well as prison rape and general harm from weed could be avoided entirely by: not smoking weed or by changing weed's legal status.

I seem to be missing a comma.

It's that kind of crap putting us further into debt! Maybe if the cops would stop busting people in possession of weed with no intent to sell and having these people take up space in prisons, we could save some damn money in this country.

If you're old enough to be looking for an apartment, you should have already moved out. Quit being a leech and leave your mother's lifestyle choices alone. I'd have kicked you out too if I were paying your bills and you had the nerve to issue me an ultimatum. YDI

Were 18 and complaining about his weed smoking? Was he otherwise a responsible parent?

you idiot, pot isnt addictive, it cannot be addictive, and maybe she smokes it for medicinal reasons, who are you to say whether she can or cant, you need to get your facts straight,

So, do you genuinely, seriously, literally not know the concept of psychological addiction exists (and accounts for things like gambling addictions)? Or are you just ignoring it because you're part of that lumbering bulk of humanity who cannot be content unless they see everything they dislike as 100% bad and everything they like as 100%, faultlessly good?
