Re:
Q1: Do/Did your parents use drugs?
Well, both my parents smoked their fair share of weed back in high school and college, and they also both experimented with shrooms and acid and the like. My mom has done Heroin, but she was a major coke head in college. In fact, she used to buy it a Kilo at a time, cut it and sell it to all her friends, and this way she sold enough to support her habit for free. Nowadays she gets xanax from the doc, and I've found some really crappy pot in her closet before. Her friends use vicodin and such, but she mostly just drinks wine these days. She is pretty fucked up mentally, too. My dad is just a complete idiot, but he can run a business well. He doesn't do any drugs anymore. He was never too heavy into them.
Q2: Do your parents condone or turn the blind-eye to your drug use? Are you open with them about it?
My parents used to get all upset when I would come home stoned or whatever. They also used to get upset when I was high on vicodin/codeine, mainly because I was stealing it from them. In the past 9 months, they haven't done shit about me using OC. I walk around the house high as a kite, being all lovey dovey with my siblings and stuff, and they don't care at all. My dad is still a dick and takes my shit sometimes, but otherwise, my mom just wants to see me get better mentally. I started using opiates heavily to self-medicate a severe depression and severe social anxiety. Over this time, my schizo- symptoms have become more prevalent and excerbated by my use. Basically, though, I am bound to literally become insane sooner or later, so I figure why not enjoy myself on opiates for now.
