yea, when you're on something all the time people see sober you as different n then think you're high, used to happen to me all the time
but sometimes parents just dont wanna think about it if its bad, like that dontdodrugs commercial were they say yea my mom has been in denial for years yada yada yada, i can totally relate to that, i was always a pot smoker since like 14 as well n they werent kool with it but it caused enough arguements n i argued my case for smokin fairly well to the point where they only would say something when they caught me in the act, if the garage or bathroom smelled like weed or i was obviously high they never said anything n just let it ride but they knew, even with the heroin they knew something was up they just didnt know it was heroin, and even to this day my mom doesnt seem to want to allow herself to believe i was on heroin, whenever she talks about my drug use its "the pot" i was doin, i mean they put me on suboxone when i ran outta money doin Oxy n then when i was like a month or so clean from H i told em i had been usin H n they said they knew i was doing something, cuz i was either sick, really happy or just out of it, so its not like they dont fully know now but even to this day anytime its brought up no matter what drug just the general topic of my drug use is referred to as "when i was on the pot"
i guess for some denial is the easiest way to deal with something so difficult, not sayin its good or the right way to deal with it but from others stories too denial seems to be pretty common, i loved n hated that commercial all at the same time
