do you portray a drug user image?

^ word on the glasses it seems to work ridiculously well for authority figures :)
 
^^LOL i wear contacts but when im high as fuck and have to go to family events i whip out the gold rimmed pink tinted prescription glasses. I look sooooo good girl!
 
I either look completely fuckin metrosexual, or completely fuckin hippie. Depends on who's judging. I'm generally clean cut (when I grow my hair I look like, again, either a total pothead or a total hair model) and i dress eccentrically, just because I get bored wearing plain clothes. Problem is, that's a really trendy thing to do, so I always get lumped into groups of really trendy people who wear trendy clothes bought at cheap flea markets overseas and oversized amber tinted sunglasses.

bastards. but most of the time, you wouldn't be able to tell, and I can hide it very, very easily. when sober.
 
Well I wear Phish shirts, cargo pants, don't shave regularly, grow my hair medium-long, and like to wear a tuke (winter hat). So I'd guess most people would at least assume that I smoke pot, if the faint smell and red eyes didn't already give it away.

So I guess I look like a drug user, but I'm far from the extreme wookie stereotype. I suppose I look like a liberal-minded college student.

I act a bit more like a drug user, probably. I'm much better at writing than speaking, for example. Whenever I try to talk my thoughts come out fragmented, and my ideas are pretty abstract. But I am too lazy to have ADHD or whatnot, so I guess that means I act like a drug user.

If I act "sketchy" it's because I don't really give a fuck. I've been with the same wonderful girl for several years, my parents still respect me, and my professors think I'm relatively intelligent in spite of my unreliable performance in classes.

As long as my extended family doesn't think I'm on drugs, and I can act like a normal person for breif periods of time when need be, I'm all good =D

edit: 3000 posts! woot!
 
You wouldn't be able to tell I use drugs. I'm entirely too preppy. Most of the clothes in my closet come from J. Crew. That's partly because I like them, and partly because I don't want to be perceived as someone who is a druggie. It's a conscious decision on my part. Now, when I'm fucked up (it depends on the drug), you can tell. And, I'm generally more open about my drug use when my inhibitions are lowered. But, most of the time, I'm pretty straight in terms of appearance. I shave regularly, take great care of my skin and hair (yeah, I know I sound gay), dress nicely, am a neat freak, etc. Plus, I maintain a full-time job, drive a great car, and live in a really cool historic neighborhood. I don't mean to imply that people who use drugs can't have all of that, because I use and I do. It's just that people don't perceive people who use drugs as being able to maintain that. Don't get me wrong, I've done my fair share of stints where I got so fucked up it's gotten me into trouble, but I really prefer to do things that I can control. For instance, I can really function quite well on opiates. I'm coherent, sober acting, so much so that I went to class several times high on opiates my senior year in college. The only way you would have known would have been to see my pinpoint pupils. That's always a dead give away for those who know to look for that sort of thing. And, of course, the trick is to get high without nodding off, which is sort of a fine distinction to make. But, to answer the question simply, no, you can't tell.
 
to look at me in every day life I doubt it even when I go out to a rave or club event I always dress really girlie and not like your typical raver. but the truth is I have probably done more pills than the person who looks like a raver and I like that.
 
Looking like a drug user is one thing, looking like a drug dealer is another. People try to buy drugs from my boyfriend all the time. He never sold and almost never took drugs, but I guess he just looks like that.

It can be anoying as hell, especially in a rave.
 
I sort of do, and I sort of don't. Before I came to college I definitely did dress like a druggie , I wore broken down jeans, hoodies and beanies all the time, just a definitely stoner look. I've changed a bit, but I still put on the old look quite frequently. That being pacific sunwear-ish type stuff.

I normally just like wearing comfortable clothes. When I'm just chilling out in my room, I'll wear jeans, a t-shirt, maybe some mesh pants, etc. It's just when I go out to a party I'll put on nicer clothes like a dress shirt or something. It's not really "me" though, if you guys know what I mean... sometimes I like the feeling though. :)

I wouldn't really say that I act like a drug user by just talking to me, but if you get to know me you'll quickly realize that I love my drugs. My personality just seems really very articulated when you first meet me, and I have a bit of a dorky, "studious" look on my face so...

But then again I'm high a lot of the time so I guess when I'm high they know I use drugs, when I'm not high, they have no idea.

man im high right now, i hope this post made sense 8)
 
im a striaght up guy, only close mates know i do drugs, no-one at work knows a thing, and sheit, i goto work high as a kite :D
 
I look and dress the same way now as I did in the mid-80's so I guess you can say that I look like a pothead. Except now that I am 40 lbs and 1000 bags of Doritos heavier, I now look like the pot has had its way with me ;)
 
if the cops fuck with ya for no reason, you look enough like a drug user

thats all i need to know about it
 
Well in my area everyone knows who takes drugs and who dosen't, no gives a fuck.

I wouldn't say i look like a drug user as such, whenever i'm off my head though on ecstacy it's a bit hard not to let people know of your wonderful state.
 
i've been told i look like a typical artsy chick; asian heritage, 5'2 pale pale olive skin, my hair is either waxed/gelled and styled or it's messy, bed head... black nail polish, preppy shirt, ripped pants... silver watch, ripped converse all stars with scribbes all over it... now, i can be extremely girlie, or i can dress a lil boyish... either style i choose i get noticed as a druggie... though what drug, people figure im on differs...

when im looking a lil boyish - hair all shaggy, dark colors, acting a little pissy cause it's morning time, people keep hinting at if im a little "low on smoke" or something like that <insert giggle here> etc... bigger points if i have my skateboard with me that day, then peoples are all out....

if im looking girlie that day, looking a lil kandi-d up, people assumed im on x (of course)...

im usually one or the other, the only times i have all straight n preppy is when im in a work situation, and then it's all the more fun when people find out i do drugs... they looked so shocked, i guess people either figure me as the absolute good girl, or the definite bad girl...

so, yeah, i guess im pretty obvious as a user...
 
^^^people stupid if they think a kid with ripped "art" clothes is the definite bad girl

come on yo clock em in the head with them converse "fo sheezy" they better watch out uh oh
 
Apparently so.

The 'stoner hair' and whatnot made most of my school think I was a pothead before I even smoked.
 
I often have a strange disposition like I am tweaking. I've done my fair share, but it is more that I am just an intense person at times. On the other hand I can be a very innocent and completely inobvious dork.
 
do you look like a stereotypical drug user

...and how do you think it's affected your relationship to drugs? i totally do not look like a drug user except maybe that i'm really thin. that combined with the fact that i have always gotten really good grades seems to have deterred people from offering me drugs, so i got my start on most stuff relatively late. even now that i'm pretty open to people about my drug use and stuff, i am always having to go out and seek shit and even when i do seek stuff, people are always suspicious....it's the same thing when i try to befriend druggie types...it takes them awhile to warm up to me. anyone else?
 
It's seems like the stereotypical crack user would look very different from the stereotypical mushroom user. What do you mean by stereotypical? Ultra-thin and really tired looking?
 
my appearance, no. I wear old navy, rugby shirts, some polo shirts, sorta preppy clothing.

If you a conversation with me and weed comes up, you def know I smoke. Lately, I have be come more secretive with telling people.

I know someone who had dead bumper stickers all over his car, hippie, etc. and he always got pulled over.

I am glad I am most comfortable in the semi-prep style because I wouldn't want to walk aroudn with an "please search me" sign over my head.

When people talk to me they easiely beleive I smoke, and if i meet someone through another freind they know I smoke too.

All in all, I think its the best to try and stay below radar. honestly, I would think cops/parents/etc. would care less if you didn't look the part because you aren't trying to force it on them. sort of a "see no evil" type of thing.

If you read terence mckenna's book food of the gods, he says (and I think I agree with terence) the problem with drugs is that they would change society and its that aspect, not the getting fucked up, that the cops, parents, etc. care about.
