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

seems alot of people here arnt ashamed of being users, but are pissed off the world isnt more acceptive haha - *hug* yall are no worse then the junkee who slaps his momma for money, and no better then the wealthy laywer who smokes crack, but sends people to jail for the same thing he does every night. We are users, but we are also human. god gave us free will, so Im glad so many of you are open to people. Dont be ashamed of your habits, be proud you do them responsibly ^_^
 
I've found that when I was on benzos I used to blab to others about my drug usage, and it lead to most of those people passing judgment against me. Now I won't even tell people I do anything but cannabis, and that's only if they smoke/are cool with it, since it is very accepted here in So Cal. I would rather that average people (read: non-drug users) get to know me for who I am, not what I do.

To drug users, I'll tell them I do cannabis and LSD, people don't need to know about my Kratom/Tramadol use, and I don't do benzos anymore.
 
When you are making new friends it is easy to say that you use drugs. If they have a problem with it - to bad, goodbye.

The problem lies in admitting this to the friends you already have. That is if you didn't do drugs before, and now you do. And this is where my dilemma lies. I want to tell them the truth, because I am not the kind of person that likes keeping secrets. But I want to continue to have them as friends as well. What do you do in a situation like that?

I like this post. +1
 
I am very open about my drug use to certain extents. Like some people know I've tried heroin and cocaine etc, but they are close friends. I am very open about certain things to my mother, but she just doesn't understand. Most people presume I use drugs anyway - Im starting to get a little stick about it now.
 
im allmost honest with all

my mom
i dont front my rigs or dope at, and just tell her how im doing on my maintance

my brother
i tell all to, i go to him when im relapses and need a little cheering up

psycheatrist
i tell i take my medication, i havent told him about my drug use, then they wont threat you :/

drug counseller
i tall all to, how much i take of my sub and if i slip up,

i dont tell her about my benzo
script tho, then they would ween me of em, and to my i use em as needed not every day, but instead of
ssri these have helped me witch the ssri never did, and i tryid many so if i use a little oxazepam every month
so what, i dont use every day or is addcited or wanna be (again, i have been one time with a lot more) but i found
with benzo's less is more, they can really help me when im down, if i only use em at that, use them to much and
they start to do more damage then good.

GP (Famely Doc)
i tell it all to tho. they have been real good to my even tho im and addict, my famely doctor even gave me 10mg methadone till there was a spot in the maintance program, he's really good ive god a feeling they are starting to get tired of my junkie ass tho :(

scrink(not psyciatrist, psycheolog? mental only, dont know the word in english right now :P)
i tell everythink to best lady in the world, i only started with her becourse my mom knew her and she is really there to just listen no judging, love her :)

i do have to add i think its fucked up' your different doctors dont threat you the same if theyt know you takes drug.
dosnt even have to be often but as soon you take drugs, theres no other diagnose its allways 'the drugs fault'

Edit1:
ok just realized i dont tell all ppl everything, came to think of me dad...

My Dad - this is a little complicated.
Allmost forgot the old bastard, when ever he found out i was a addict something just changed
i think he's has guilt becourse he's allways smoked weed and think maybe its him that started me doing this, even tho i have told its was self medicating at first, nothing to do with a little weed smoking once in a while, but when ever i starts talking about it with me mum when he's around, it can be about me medecine and progress he just starts shutting up and leaves, and it really makes me sad i have lost that connection i used to have to my dad... :(
so yeah i basicly dont talk with him much exept im visiting or seing him on occation...

sorry for my wasted ramble,.. :)

I am open to my close friends. I see no reason to hide it from them. I am obliged to keep it an absolute secret from any co-workers. I'd loose my job for sure, and likely loose my licensure.
 
FOR SOME FUCKING REASON

I don't know how to keep my former tweaking on the down low when I'm talking to friends
 
Quite open. I don't advertise it, but since ganja is practically legal here in the Netherlands (and it constitutes about 90% of my drug use) I definitely don't hush it up too much either. Most people here will find out about me smoking weed through seeing me do it in public or out at a bar, or openly talking about it, as if discussing whether to get McD's or Burger King - so with respect to weed, I'm about as open as it gets. My professors walk past and see me through coffeeshop windows, and I wave at them. My parents also know I smoke cannabis frequently, though the exact extent I keep to myself - they don't need to know.

With other drugs, I tell people that I get better acquainted with quite quickly. I'm not ashamed about it, and I feel that at this point in time, I can already speak about drugs with a kind of "when I was younger" grandpa attitude in that I've tried most drugs I want to try and use far less than I did 3 years ago or so. Basically, if anyone so much as approaches the furthest point from where you can see "friendship", they will know about my drug use. If that's something they're going to judge me on, I would rather they not be my friend.

Most people that I have talked to in university seem to know I do drugs other than weed occasionally, and do not seem to be too troubled. I haven't told my parents, for I fear they would not understand.

Previously at work in Finland I had to keep weed-smoking a complete secret, or else I could have lost my job quite quickly.
 
All of my friends know and I think just 1 kinda judges me for it but he also understands I still have goals and stuff like that in life-he has prejudices cause an old friend of ours-who I don't erally speak to-is definitely going down the wrong path in terms of hanging out with people that, if I spend time around them, I'm likely to get throw back in jail which I simply can't do right now. I trusted a member of my family about it but then this person went around behind my back and told everyone in my family but family consists of a bunch of shitheads that I don't really have any interest in speaking to anymore than I absolutely must-which is very, very rare.

Certain friends of the family don't know because I don't want them to worry. I don't have any habits but they see most stuff as harmful and since I can handle myself, I'm fine with not telling them. Basically, since drugs don't affect the way I spend time with them, I don't think it matters much.
 
i tell most of my friends about my drug use.... and then the ones i think i can trust about my hardcore drug use

never tell my family about it openly unless they find out or notice im on something i still try and deny it but its so blatent and obvious im rolling face or high on a benzo/weed and ALCOHOL.... never had the problem of being noticed on opiates or speed though!%)
