Today, I was talking to my aunt about my brother's recent arrest for drug possession. I proudly told her that I have never done drugs of any kind. Her response: "Well, actually you were born addicted to heroin, so you had a drug problem long before your brother." FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after my aunt died and left me everything, I found my heroin addict brother searching my house, demanding his share of the money. He thought I had it in cash, so I called the cops. Now our mom is mad at me because a good brother would have given him something. FML
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 mum accused me of doing heroin because some teaspoons had gone missing. FML
Today, I met some of my boyfriend's family for the first time. His aunt said I was really cute, which made me happy. As we were leaving I said "Your aunt thought I was cute." His reply..."Yeah, well, my aunt's on drugs". FML
Today, my mom talked to me and my brother about how great it was that our cousin was getting away from drugs and becoming sober, as he would have so many more opportunities opened up for him now. She explained all this while sitting on our patio, smoking a blunt. FML
Today, my mother topped someone's story of their child's problems by saying I'm on drugs. This resulted in people showing up to stage an intervention for me. She made the whole thing up and I've never used drugs, but no one believes me. FML
Today, I texted my brother saying, "Always remember I love you! Never forget it!" to which he replied, "You better not be doing drugs." FML
Today, I got into a major fight with my parents over my younger brother stealing from me. Their response was to get angry at me for my "tone" with them. My brother is 18 with an obvious drug problem, but my tone is the problem. FML
Today, my older brother offered me a cigarette. I took it and barely took a drag before he socked me in the arm and lectured me for taking the offer. He's an alcoholic, and smokes daily. FML
Today, I was in the car with my mom. We were discussing my brother, how he's been screwing up majorly lately and she blamed it on his friends. Then she turned to me and said, "It's a good thing you've never had any friends." FML

Wait, so....F your life because you were born addicted to heroin and havent touched any type of drug since that time? Obviously, it didn't affect you all that badly. Two of my cousins were born the same way and have had learning disabilities because of it. What did it do to you??

Uh wait, are you saying it's NOT a good thing to not have done drugs? Loser.

I didn't hit YDI but it could be because a family member was its arrested and she's sitting around bragging about how great she is?

you were asking for that by being judgmental of someone with a problem. Grow up and spend time helping your brother.

Wow...I don't know what to say. I had a friend who was born addicted to crack. Besides being a little slow, he was perfectly normal. I didn't believe him when he told me. He was perfectly normal. I thought at most he has a mild case of ADHD due to his hyperactivity and his trouble paying attention sometimes. I just remembered another girl born addicted to crack. She told me she had with brain damage. I didn't notice it at all. She did better in English than I did lol. Anyway, you're so lucky. I'm a recovering opiates addict. I was on pills. Mostly oxy and Vicodin when I could get it. It doesn't compare to heroin, but that shit was so ******* hard to quit! I seriously thought I was dying most of the time I was in withdrawal. I actually wanted to, it was that painful. If it weren't for my stance on suicide and my faith in God I probably would've killed myself. This most recent withdrawal was the only time I truly considered suicide. I felt like it was the only way out. Thank God for my mom. Anyway, you're lucky and your brother needs help, not prison time. Trust me, not prison time!

To be addicted from birth, does the mother have to consume the drug while she is preganant? Or is it like... Conincidental??

Nooooo, the drug just miraculously appears in the baby as the mother is pushing it out. Of course the mother has to consume it while pregnant!

Gonna go out on a limb here and guess that your dad is in prison, and your family on the whole is what most would call dysfunctional.

heroin was actually manufactured by Bayer aspirin company and removed from market because of addiction. it is definitely possible to be born addicted without damage.
