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?

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.

If you were my child and you thought that I was addicted to weed, I'd disown you for being a ******* idiot. Your mom isn't a ******* junkie, give her some credit.

It's not addictive....

It's scientifically impossible to be physically addicted to weed; however, it is possible that she is psychologically addicted to it. Long and short, it's all in her head. Why would u want her to stop? I can't see a reason

Two words..."The Union". It's a documentary that 95% of the commenters here need to watch before making anymore false statements about marijuana. The other 5% already know what I'm talking about ;)

I call shenanigans, cannabis is less addictive than chocolate. She probably just likes getting high.

The drugs always win. If you don't believe me, look at all the people on this very page who think a little sticky-icky is more important than family. As a side-note: I hate reading drug discussions online because it always reminds me that a dismayingly high number of people don't know the word "addictive" exists and try to conjugate "addict" into "addictING" instead (gerund, not adjective). When the topic is marijuana, it also reminds me how many don't understand the difference between chemical and psychological addiction, or just refuse to acknowledge the existence of the latter because nothing they like can have any drawbacks or flaws, at all, ever.

The only reason there are so many YDIs is that there are a lot of assholes on the internet who refuse to believe that someone can become addicted to pot. You can become addicted to anything you enjoy, and it's not a good thing. I'm sorry, OP - best wishes.

People are really, really easily threatened when you seemingly "put down" anything they like. Most people are just not comfortable with the idea that anything they dislike has good points or that anything they like has bad points. Try telling the average person, "(evil person X, Y, or Z) was bad, but they did love their family a lot," and watch them instantly jump down your throat. Because they literally cannot conceive of a moderate viewpoint, they will assume any expression of positivity reflects a 100% positive opinion.

Weed is NOT a dangerous drug. You ever thought that maybe you're moving out because she wants her own life, and since you're seemingly of age, you should have yours too? And you'll probably be in college soon and dose yourself with the FAR more dangerous and addictive drug of alcohol?
