Drugs And Parents [MEGA-MERGED]

Nope my parents didn't do drugs... lots of substance use in my family tho, both on father's & mother's side. Me and my younger brother turned out the druggies, my sister is clean cut, married & living in Ohio LOL.

Oh, and my mom said she tried coke once but stopped because it "felt too good." Haha

Yah it really can to some people, if you get your kicks from dopamine. Some people don't even find coke particularly euphoric, or worth much of anything. Loved it with a passion from the first line myself (not proud of it).
 
Umm...My dad died an opiate addict and when my mom found my stash of MDMA crystal she kicked me out of her house and reported me to the Drug Task Force so I spent the next few days homeless on DOB. She didn't take it very well. :(

Dad: Was a college athlete so only drank and smoked cigarettes in the off season. One of his closes friends went to prison for two years for money laundering in relation to coke dealing. Today he drinks everyday but only two or three beers, but will indulge once in a while.

Mom: Said she tried pot once but then didn't like it, I doubt the fact that she didn't like it as her brother (my uncle) is a daily smoker and my aunt uses at least weekly. She also drinks but only on occasion.
 
MY mom is an ex-opioid and benzo addict so she worries alot about me because I'm following the same path with the same drugs. She worries alot that i'm going to end up dead from a fentanyl or combination of cns depressant overdose.

My dad doesn't say much about my use. He doesn't mind the pot or lsd but he doesn't like the opioids because of watching my mom do it and watching me withdrawl and kick habits.
 
I tell my dad anything and everything about my life.

He is not one to judge and is only there to help.


My mom on the other hand.... she has this thing she does. If she feels I am in danger she will start panicking and make some very bad decisions. Even if the decision is (in her mind) ultimately in my best interests, sometimes they come out doing more harm than good.

Its just the kneejerk, save my kid, reactions that seem to cause the most trouble.

But I love her :)
 
My dad used to be an alcoholic in his 20s, now he just smokes a bit of weed and never drinks. He also took LSD and smoked and told me that he smoked this hash called "opiated black" or something.

My mum has a beer at night maybe 2 times a week. She smoked pot when she was younger but not now.

Both are ex-smokers fot up on 25 years, although my dad was smoking again for a few months last summer after smoking too many joints with me lol.

oh, yeah my dad was caught growing weed by his brother when he was younger, he was the rebel of the family. The brother saw an odd path beaten through a load of furz bushes (thorny assed bushes), saw the plants my dad was growing and sprayed them with weedkiller lol.

My parents both smoked back in the day and did coke in the 80s a fair amount when they lived in Miami. Mostly, though, they have interesting stories of other people's drug use. My mom was a emergency room doc for awhile, she told me stories of gay guys coming in with small rodents (usually mice) lodged in their rectum. They would take amyl nitrite and cram the animals up in there. Apparently it was very pleasurable as the animals squirmed to get out, but sometimes they would wriggle too far up and get stuck.
Oh, and when I went to college a few years back my mom asked me if people still did ludes. I'm pretty sure the legend is exaggerated but nonetheless, I wish they still did.
 
Drugs and Parents

I like recreational drugs. A lot.
Weed, LSD, ecstasy, the occasional 'shroom, and more to come. Not so much alcohol, though. Out of the others, it is the most destructive and addictive (depending on how strong your will is). I WILL stay away from meth, coke, crack, heroin, and their analogs. Those are just ridiculous. As for the others, I take them safely, research them fully before taking them, and practice harm reduction. I realize that there are some minor long-term negative effects that result from drug use, and even worse/longer negative effects when you take them in excess. I am okay with these facts. I believe in having fun, living life to the fullest, taking risks, etc. However, I also believe in moderation, and I am not without a sense of responsibility, nor am I a dumbass.

The issue is my parents. They are very understanding and they always let me know that it is okay to experiment and have fun as long as it's safe. They even offer me a glass of wine or a cocktail for special occasions. They are no stranger to drugs either; my dad is a very successfully recovered ex-junkie (all I know about is his heroin addiction, a lot of weed, some coke, maybe LSD), and my stepmom is a former college party girl. She has only mentioned the use of weed and alcohol, but she has alluded to more.

I visit them now and then, and the topic of drugs come up from time to time. One time I visited right after a huge smoke-out, and smelled like weed, but I lied and said it was my friends that smoke weed, not me. Another time, I went to Earthdance, took acid and ecstasy, and stayed up most of the time. When I talked to them about it, they asked if I took acid to stay awake for so long, and I said that it hurt my feelings to be accused of taking acid, and they bought it.

Well, I'm tired of dancing around the subject with them. One part of me wants to tell them the truth and get it out there and over with. The same part would think that taking drugs WITH them would be kickass, if they were okay with my drug use. But the other part of me wants to keep them in the dark. It feels safer that way. My parents won't worry about me, or hassle me. They also might get REALLY pissed off at the fact that I've been lying to them about drugs since junior year of high school.

Any parents with (constructive) thoughts on the situation? Or people who have been in my position? I just don't know what to do, or who to turn to.

Thank You

P.S. Is this the right place to post this kind of thread? I didn't really know where else to put it...
 
I agree with drew345. If the subject comes up again, tell them the truth, no need to go into detail, but be honest. I think alot of the time parents have their suspecions, but don't want to know how long their "baby" has been doing drug under their noses'. My mom knew I was doing drugs in high school, but once I came out to her about it she didn't want to know how many drugs I had done or for how long I had been doing them. It made her feel as if she had somehow "failed".

But one question. Are you still living with them? If so, I would be very carefull about telling them about your use. If you can, wait untill you move out.
 
yea wait till you move out if you can, cause once they know they will monitor you more closely, and basically be "encouraging" sobriety all the time.
Which gets annoying quickly.
But if they did them they will probably be pretty open minded, and not so scared as if they didn't know what drugs you were doing.
 
Your parents have good reasons to not condone your use. Good for them. If this is the case, that is.

Look, only you can say what would happen as we don't know them. All I can say is...whatever you do- respect their rules and do as they say in their house.


I WILL stay away from meth, coke, crack, heroin, and their analogs. Those are just ridiculous.

A drug is inanimate. It doesn't have personality qualities. Figure then, every drug is simply ridiculous.
 
No, I don't live with them. I visit them from time to time.

hmm... yeah...:\
I don't think that the word 'ridiculous' is necessarily a personality trait as much as it is an adjective (a word used to describe or qualify a noun or pronoun)...
so... the word 'ridiculous' could be used to describe not just animate objects, but inanimate as well...

one night, many a year ago, whilst on acid i decided i was sick of lying to my parents and woke them up at 3 in the morning to confess my drug use. certainly wasn't the best way or time to tell them, and the next day was a bit rough... but our relationship significantly improved without all the lying and it was definitely for the best.

well if you have done rolls, you have done meth. and if you are involved in the drug community, as it sounds you are, good luck staying away from coke. I used to say tell myself a similair thing, but eventually when you are drunk and high as it gets at a party, some kid is gonna offer you a line and give a friendly "are you kidding, i wouldn't charge you" laugh when you say "i don't have cash for that," and then BAMB. next day you say "whoa i'll never do that again," and the process starts all over again. maybe not the case for everyone, but trust me, it's a common scenario.
