Today, my mom told me that if I wanted to commit suicide, I should make it seem like a car accident, and not do it in the house, because she would be too embarrassed if people thought she was a bad parent. 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 I'm the reason she's going to kill herself one day. FML
Today, I told my mom I loved her and she asked if I was going to kill myself. FML
Today, I wouldn’t let my sister borrow my car, so she told our parents that I’m depressed and threatened to kill myself, which is a lie. My mom is on the phone to 999 trying to get me a 72-hour psychiatric hold in hospital, and every time I say it was a lie, my dad says I’m in typical denial. FML
Today, I was feeling depressed. I overheard my mom crying on the phone. She said, “If my daughter kills herself, who’s going to do the dishes?” FML
Today, my mother is so overdramatic that her response to finding out I lost a friend's book was that I should fake my own death rather than fess up. FML
Today, I was feeling suicidal and needed to talk to someone about it, so I called up the only person in the world who cares about me: my mom. Or so I thought. Her immediate response was, “You should go ahead and end it.” FML
Today, my mom casually told me, "Remember that time we went to build a swing set when you were four? Actually, I was going to hang myself and take you with me so that you didn't suffer in this life. If it wasn't for your Grandma, we wouldn't be here now. And when I took you to the lake… Oh, silly me!" Cool, mom. FML
Today, my mother took a bunch of sleeping pills, then went driving. I followed her and dialed 911. Now she thinks that I was "trying to get her arrested," and she refuses to talk to me ever again. FML
Today, I was in a car accident. When I came home, I told my mom. She just got angry with me, blamed me for it, and didn't even ask if I was OK. FML
Today, I felt suicidal and told my mum I was going to hang myself from my curtain rod. All she cared about was the rod possibly coming loose and damaging the wall. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I know this girl named Kayleigh who feels suicidal and wants to die this way. Is that you?

I would assume the answer is no, based on the fact that the FML lists OP's gender as male.

And the "Mom of the year award" goes to.............. In all seriousness that is truly messed up thing to say to your own child.

Wow, that is seriously messed up. First, I really hope that you aren't considering suicide. Second, that's a terrible thing for a mother to say to her child. No matter what your situation is right at the moment, please know that there are always people who care. I wish you well, OP, and I hope that your mother apologizes to you for that statement. That was a very selfish thing to say to someone.

and I thought my mother was bad. She told me if I wanted to cut my wrists, go ahead & do it. Just don't get blood on her carpet.

OP that is such an awful thing to say to another person. Unfortunately there are some parents who are not supportive of their children, and it truly sucks. I am so so sorry she said that to you. I am wondering, does she have any sort of mental disorder that means she isn't herself at times? Regardless it is an awful thing to hear. I hope you know that you are special. You are important - you will find someone who appreciates you. I am sorry your mother - by the sound of it - is unable to see this. But the fact is that some of the strongest people went through the worst times. Florence Nightingale was forced to be her sister's servant for a year by her parents because she wanted to be a nurse, and I know of a lot of people who do not talk to their family anymore due to a crappy history with them. You are more than this, and your experience is important in shaping you and you might be able to use it to help others someday.

Wow unfortunately there are no tests if you wanna become a parent. But try to adopt, they do better checks than FBI!
