AIBU?

To think my family are extremely thick and full of bullshit?!

(Extended family).

A few retailers have released some of their Christmas collections online recently and I screenshot it and added it to my Facebook story with a caption of "Inject it into my veins 😍"

I posted that at around 8.30 last night. This morning I got a text from my Nan saying can she call, she's worried.

According to her sister, I had posted on an anonymous help forum about drug addiction and that I was feeling the urge to 'inject into my veins' ShockConfused

She then went on to say that I wouldn't know she'd seen it since I thought it was a private Facebook group but actually it was public.

All a load of bollocks. Firstly I have a very mundane existence. Not ever taken so much as a puff from a cigarette. Secondly, similar has happened throughout my life since having FB from 5 years ago but nothing to this scale, at all.

For example, my Nan's sister knew I was pregnant before I told anyone. She guessed because she said to my Nan she'd noticed a distinctive increase in 'baby themed' shares on Facebook. She was actually right, I was pregnant! She told my Nan and Mum she was sure I was pregnant. I wasn't saying yet due to a lot of loss previously.

Anyway, this evening I deleted her from my FB.
I saw 15 minutes later a status post from one of her daughters saying "If you need help there's no point in hiding! Sort yourself out love and come clean! My mum ain't done anything but try to help"

I don't know what to do. I feel so extremely angry but also quite amused that it's gone this far. It's all so strange and ridiculous.

AIBU to say their bloody bonkers and liars after some drama?

How do I go from here? Sad This aunt of mine
Has a big presence within that side of the family and can stir up some proper shit if she feels like it. Luckily enough they live in East London and I'm away. Still south east but not near there.

I'm a boring mum of 1 with a good job, husband and peaceful life. I've never, ever, taken drugs in my life ffs. Now this?!

I feel like I've been tarnished. My Nan is furious with her sister and is screaming she has no right. My Nan is a very big presence also with a lot of 'respect' and genuinely adored by everyone for her selflessness and warmth, and
ability to stay out of drama
