Today, my mom spent over $200 getting me tested for every drug in the book. All because I admitted to smoking a single cigarette two years ago. FML

Today, my mom found my dad's hidden stash of cigarettes. He told her they were mine and now I have to spend two hours at therapy for my "smoking problem" every weekend. I've never smoked. FML

Today, my mom found my pack of cigarettes. She's now making me go to rehab. I had only smoked one cigarette ever just to try it. I didn't even like it. FML

Today, my family staged an intervention and demanded I go to rehab. Why? My mom found 'drug papers' in my car. It was a receipt from a routine drug screening for my job. It was also over two years old. FML

Today, my mother called me and told me that she went to the hospital. This wasn't a surprise 'cos she normally goes to the hospital for the smallest things. I was a smartass and asked, "What now? You finally have lung cancer from all those cigarettes?" Apparently, she does. FML

Today, after months of helping my mother with bills because she claimed she had no money, I found out she makes way more than what I do. She just wanted my money for alcohol and drugs. FML

Today, my mom found out about my brother smoking. She calmly discussed smoking with him. On the other hand, I got yelled at and made to do chores all day despite having a university exam, just because I knew about it but I didn't tell her, because I knew that I would get the short end of the stick.

Not sure how this is an FML. It's your mom's money, and if you haven't done anything, the results will be negative.

That usually indicates a parent who used to partake of cigarettes and/or recreational drugs. You should pop the question and watch the reaction :)

Well prove her wrong by obliging to the tests. Atleast one cigarette didn't turn into a bad habit like it did for me. I totally quit, but it was hard and it took me 4 years of repeatedly starting over :'(

My dad started smoking when he was only 9 and recently has been having so many breathing problems that he had to quit. My mother has asthma that's triggered by cigarette smoke. As a kid and even a teenager I had really bad ear infections that may have been due to adults puffing away all around me. I've never smoked myself. Nicotine addiction is horrible.

One cigarette 2 years ago doesn't mean op is addicted to nicotine, sorry about your family but don't be so self righteous.

Dude you really need to grow some balls and say no. I voted YLS because I don't know how old you are but if you don't stand up for yourself ultimately you only have yourself to blame

Today, I excitedly told my mom that I'm pregnant with my second child. She shot back, "You know what's a REAL achievement? Jacking your dad off in church last week without anyone noticing. Aim higher." I really didn't need to know that. FML

Today, my wife was painting in the garage when she unplugged a random plug to charge her stupid, smelly vape without thinking about what it was she was unplugging. It was the large chest freezer. About £500 in meat and the entire bottom tier of our wedding cake defrosted and ruined. FML

Today, the woman I left my wife for says she doesn’t wanna date me because she "sees me as a best friend” and “You just got divorced, it’s kinda awkward.” I caught feelings for this woman, tried to fight it for months and finally caved in, only to be told she sees me as a platonic friend. My wife won’t take me back. FML

Today, I was waiting in the car while my mom went into a store to get beer. A few minutes later, some guy was knocking on my window telling me to open the door. I started cursing him out, thinking I was getting attacked. Turns out he worked there and was putting the beer in the car. FML
