How open are you about your drug use? Who knows you use drugs?

I'm really open about my drug use. Not always how often I do drugs sometimes lol but I'm very open with basically everybody I know that I use drugs recreationally.
 
My boss knows about EVERYTHING i do. However, i am a salesman and by far the best he has and he knows he can't afford to loose me (comission only job). If this was the case with another job i would have lost it instantly lol. My parents know i smoke weed and drink, and have experimented with MDMA and other psychedelics. HOwever, only my boss and girlfriend know about everything ive done.
 
My close friends know I use, my closest friends know I IV.
I want to tell my mum - we have no secrets except for that. I'm not an addict by any means but I know if I tell her she will assume I am...
 
When I was deep into my addiction everyone knew. They'd have to be kinda dumb not to as I was high all the time. Now that I've changed my DOC, and I don't have the time or the need to be that high, I keep it to myself unless someone asks. I like to get high and I'm not ashamed of it but, a happy content drug addict isn't something that society as a whole is ready to accept.
 
It depends. These days no one. Before when I was open about my drug use. Everyone knew. But even then I tried to act normal around people that weren't high.

It's crazy once you quit. I always get high when I feel like it. But I do my best to keep it a secret now since I quit using irresponsibly.
 
All of my friends. Once I got arrested, those in my family who didn't know, found out. Of my all of my educators, I believe a criminal justice teacher in high school knew, a computer teacher in high school I thought was pretty cool. I think my composition professor might know but I'm not for sure. I try to keep it relatively quiet though as far as strangers go unless I'm at a music festival, rave, or EDM show and even then I try to be wary.
 
couldn't really care less who knows i do drugs anymore, ive told too many people in the past and word of mouth its gotten around, plus being off my pickle every weekend its noticeable i like to get off my face. pretty much every single person i know drinks alcohol to the stage of getting hammered, and quite a few smoke cigarettes, some of them get into trouble through drunken behavior, if they have a problem enough to criticize my drug use they need to have a good hard look at themselves, as alcohol is one of the worst drugs. people do criticize me, i couldnt care less anymore, fucking hypocrites. my body, i'll do what i like with it. plus im not addicted, i pay my tax and have always been in work since the age of 15, i dont cause any havoc or problems to society, dont hurt anybody, enjoy myself, ive got no shame in my drug use. plus, tbh i was more of a mess on alcohol (paralytic, falling around all the time, throwing up) before i started doing doing stims, hallucinogenics, etc. see no reason why i should hide the use of drugs. but then again society and media have made drug use seem bad, blah blah, "drug users are bad"..... load of bollocks
 
My parents both know I use/used. As do certain members of my family. This isn't because I told them myself...If I had it my way, none of them would know, but as it stands this is the way things are and I just have to deal with it. My parents are not happy with it at all, which is totally understandable, but I feel that their lack of knowledge and refusal to learn more about drug use, and my drug use creates a vacuous hole in that part of our relationship. All of my closest friends know I use, and a lot of them are partners in crime. And there's the particular one or two that first introduced me to marijuana, and then there's the one who gave me my first taste of something harder.
 
I am completely open about it. Friends and family know. If someone asks I won't lie, even if it were a police officer (so long as i wasn't carrying anything). They all understand i'm responsible with my use and don't have a problem with it. It's only frowned upon due to religion and media. I'm above that kind of behavior to be honest.
 
People I use drugs with, they all know . a couple friends, my immediate family knows. but they don't know the extent of it. they all think it's just mdma and weed. they'd freak if they knew I'd touched stuff like coke or acid or shrooms.
I REALLY don't want my coworkers knowing. probably could get fired. if they found out, I may say "I experimented in the past" or something like that. problem is that my favourite club is like a 20 minute walk from my workplace. only one coworker I could really imagine seeing in a club though. but then again, I'm so uptight and weird at work that they would never think I'd be there either lol. who knows.
I wouldn't tell my extended family, they would get on my back about it. actually a lot of my cousins are druggies or dealers or whatever, but ruining their lives because of it. unfortunately. they'd never think that I (probably the most successful out of all the cousins, well me and my sis) used.
I don't look like a druggie unless I'm in my clubbing outfits :p I look all prim and proper and stuff.
ah let's hope no one finds out (who shouldn't :P )

This hits close to home. I try to talk to my parents about stuff. Giving them more info. They refuse to believe anything I tell them, even though it's backed up. It really doesn't help the relationship at all. They think I'm out doing dumb things when I am a pretty smart and responsible user. I told them that I made sure I tested any mdma (they only know I do mdma and weed) that I did and that I would only take pure stuff so it didn't have random chemicals in it and my mom put up her hands and was like "nanannanannanana don't want to hear that nanannananana" sooo immature ugh. I try and explain to them, and teach them some stuff, but they won't listen. Of course, they're 40, they know everything *facepalm*
 
I've told close family members about my past experimentation with drugs - namely MJ, shrooms, salvia, opiates & coke.

My friends are also aware. Some more than others (due to their varied attitudes towards drugs).

I haven't told anyone about my experiments with DXM or synthetic cannabinoids, however. Mainly because the latter sounds lame, and because I ingested the former as cough syrup, which is exponentially more lame.
Synthetic canns and cough syrup aren't half as glamorous as doing lines of Charlie, for instance - the social acceptability of which is much higher - so I mostly keep it to myself.

Essentially, I only talk about my social experiences with more 'mainstream' drugs.

I keep my mouth shut about my solo trips, lest I come across as a drug fiend. My solo experimentation - with RCs, for example - is purely for self-exploration/hedonism, but no matter how I dress it up, most people just wouldn't understand. Therefore it's simpler to zip it.

edit: like other bluelighters below, I don't broadcast it, and only discuss it if I'm sure it's 'safe' to do so.

It depends on the drugs and the people. Pretty much everyone knows I smoke pot. That doesn't bother me that people know. It's my medicine for my crazy severe migraines! I don't tell people that I drink, but that's mostly just because I'd rather get high than drunk so it's just ehh. I tell very few people about acid and ecstasy but usually people just assume I do it anyway so whatever :b And only two people know about crystal. Except for all of you (: but that's fine because I don't know you and you don't know me so it doesn't mean anything in a way!
I rarely ever do pain killers or anything like that but when I do I'm usually by myself so like literally no one at all knows. Fine by me (:
 
I keep my use between me and close friends and family. My mother, stepfather, and one of my aunts all know about my drug use, as does my closest friend. If someone comes straightout and asks I'll likely tell the truth, but unless I believe they share a similar mindset I won't bring it up. I suspect that many acquaintances, coworkers and family members have their suspicions, but I have had bad social anxiety for years before my drug use so I've always come off as distant and odd. It's been getting better recently with a heavy push forward from my drug use actually, in the last year my mindset has changed drastically for the positive and I'm slowly unlearning my harmful thought processes and behaviors. I don't know how that kind of change looks to people but any rapid change can make people talk. Doesn't matter though, I don't go broadcasting it but I'm not ashamed of my use.
 
my family, most my friends know I do IV meth + everything else. It's not something I wanted everyone to know, but due to "friends" with huge mouths and jail and rehab and all that jazz it's just been known. I don't like to lie to new friends that I like and could see a future of hanging out with that I meet because what if we become real good friends and it comes out, and they leave/don't approve of it? I can't handle losing anyone else so I kinda put it out on the table in the beginning. maybe it's dumb but it's harm-reduction for myself. x.o
 
I like to keep my shit on the down low except my good friends. I don't really wanna attract any attention from people that use drugs. Cause alot of people just suck at doing drugs haha. Its so annoying having someone over to chill and its just a complete rookie hour.
 
My mom knows I do DXM on occasion, and thats probly a good thing. Since I dont do alot of drugs socialy, she will know what substance im on, and she will not tell me "dont do it". She is my mom, so she will say I shouldnt, but I have also explained to her, in a very geeky and smart way - that I do drugs, but I do them knowing to the full extent the chemicals, the side effects, and the risk, If i OD and I feel it, or I know I took too litle, when its ok to re-dose or not. So she isnt comfortable nor "ok" with it - but Im old enough to make decisions, and she knows I will not die from these things anytime soon, because I take into account safety, and preparations prior to doing any drug. ^_^
 
I wear my "drop acid not bombs!" shirt proudly. I sit in the front row of all of my classes and the teachers always give me weird looks when I wear it. %)

My dad, sister and brother know about my psychedelic usage because of some ongoing legal issues going on (some fucker narced on me after I middle maned a couple hits to him)

Everyone knows I smoke weed.
 
For some extremely odd reason, people think it is weird and 'not-chill' when I shoot up. Like what people? So, in lieu of that matter i choose not to tell. lol
