Mum.....I like ecstacy

Well, My dad found my ez-testers. This was on the night of gatecrasher. I had a couple of friends over, we were getting ready, fixing our hair when my dad walked in and gave me a dirty look.
"Why do you do you hair like that? You like like poofter." You would figure that after a comment like that, he wouldn't have an open mind to drugs. He then called me up and questioned me whether I have taken XTC. I thought that for him to be asking me, he must know something. So I told him that I have tried it and will possibaly try it again.
Anyway, went out that night (very hard) and got home about 7:00 pm that night. I had to speak to him. I was going to hold on to the lie that I have only tried it once. Even though I was scattered, I wasn't paranoid. We sat down, and I explained what the drug does to your body, how you feel, the positive and negative affects.
If I was straight, I'd probably want it too be over straiight away, but I just stayed there and explained every bit of knowledge I had to him. I then expressed my concern about my younger sister, and how she will be exposed to the drug, and maybe I should be the one she should ask.
It was a great discussion, and I was really proud of him. I made him understand that I wasn't stupid and immature about the whole thing. I do wish I could have told him the full truth but, there is only so much an Ethnic Father can understand about his 21 year old son.

funny story actually, my dad found a vicks inhaler and a couple of 5htp capsules in a baggie and had rung someone and figured out it must be e. He looked really concerned and I admitted i had tried it, we didn't say much, I don't think he wanted to know much about it, in the end he basically told me he trusts me, and to be safe, never spoken about it since, and he never told my mum (not sure how she would have reacted). Was funny though trying to tell him what 5htp was, hehhehe
 
Mine found out the hard way,
I HAD a "friend" who decided that he was doing the thing that was in my best interest by telling my parents that I take E. The were really upset at first, but I started to show them the facts, tell them the effects and risks. I also dispelled a few myths blah blah, and eventually they decided that I would be responsible enough to run my life.
That was a few years ago now, and it has never been mentioned again. I know they hate it, but they have no real choice but to accept it. I just wish that ex-friend had spared them the pain.
Oh yeah, my parents are very devout christians.
Cheers,
DB

Doesn't "expecting the unexpected" make the unexpected expected?
 
my parent don't know, but if they asked, i wouldn't lie. however, it's another thing to just come out with "i do drugs". the right situation just doesn't present itself. i haven't even managed to tell my sister about the e/speed/shrooms/nangs, and she knows all about the copious amounts of weed i used to smoke, plus her husband used to do weed/acid...
 
I like to be really open about it with my parents... my parents have done their share of drugs, so they understand stuff. heh. like, if my mum comes home and I'm stoned, she's cool with it... she just doesn't want me smoking 24/7 'cos it tends to make me a little *lazy*... haha.
whenever I go out, I tell her whether I'll be taking an E or not, and she's pretty educated on them all...
heh, mr. horse: hate that reverse psychology! my mum does the whole, "well, it's not like I can stop you... do what you feel is best," thing. arrrrgh!
my parents like that raves have a different environment to clubs, ie. the pills vs. alcohol thing. they know that I'll at least be safe from drunk pigs

I think when you don't discuss things with parents... look, they -always- tend to expect the worst. just say you come home one day in a shitty mood, a lot of parents blame drugs if they're not really educated on it. the best way you can do things is to talk to them about it, let them know that you do do drugs, why you do it, blah, whatever.
I guess it's hard for those who have parents who aren't enlightened enough to realise that drugs really aren't that bad if you know enough about them

I have a very open relationship with my mother. My dad dosen't seem to have much of an opinion, but mum used to be reasonable accepting of my infrequent e use.
She was well aware of what I took - basically coming home in the morning, still rocking was reason enough to correctly presume I had something other than alcohol.
After the last Sunny, I came home in the best mood. Far better than I did after Belfast, but that was because some wanker crashed into my car - IDIOT!
Anyways, she went Banannas - it ruined my happy state completley. I felt dirty and baffled that I could have affected her so much. It got worse. I came home from work in a happy state, and she accused me of having more. I know no longer feel as though I could come home after a great night out. No matter how much you can chat to your parents, or make them understand, the media will always sway their opinion.
Damn you TV and Radio - you have been a friend for so long, but not any more!
 
my parents always ask about the drug use "out there", but i just tell them i turn a blind eye to it all....
my mother always asks my brother about raves and he (cool brother, we tell each other everything) just calms her by saying that "..thats how kids have fun now days, go to parties alll night and came home in the afternoon".... she accepts that and belives i dont do anything....its for her on protections
i mean, after she CRACKED it at me when she found new Eclips chewinggum packets in the bin thinking they were drugs, do you really think shell take REAL drug use seriously.
hehhe that was a funny event, i let her rave on and on wanting to c what she would say, then i just casually told her it was chewing gum.
 
I think my parents know
smile.gif

im not sure though. After utopia i didnt sleep much. PArents though i did though but i was actually playing psx
smile.gif
Anyway , i go to the toilet and i pee, i forget to flush the toilet and dad like has to go after me .
He comes back out and says " Darth whats wrong with ur pee its all bubbly" im like what? hahhahahahah anyway he goes on to say " You have changed, you like eating sweet stuff now, u go out thursday, friday and saturday. And u dont look fresh" and im like what do u mean " Well i just hope ur not taking tablets"
i just had to walk out of the room cos i was about to crack up laffin
dont ask me y
i guess its how my dad put it
smile.gif

anyway yeah wish i could tell them
but my dad would practically dis own me
and that is my story
smile.gif

wierd!
 
All three of my parents (i come from a split home) r aware of my drug use. I think the reason it was so easy for me to talk to my parents about drug use was something to do with the amount of respect we have for each another. They would realise that information that i can supply them regarding most of the newer substances like speed and E far exceeds the value of the media's bullshit representation. This is particularly important as i have a 13 yr old bro who is sure to come in contact with drugs soon, and in the same way that my parents made my introduction to weed and alcohol relatively safe and informed, i would like to be the person my bro comes to, not some dodgy wanker from his high school.
 
My parents are old-skool. Suggesting to them that drugz played a part in my life would be like suggesting I was contemplating suicide.
Here's a story that illustrates the possible damage that can be done...
I have a friend who, after a big night, rang work early in the morning, before anyone would be in, and left a message saying she was not coming in.
BUT... didn't hang the phone up properly... and so the message contained, on the arse-end, a conversation about all the drugz she'd consumed the night before.
Her boss, quite convinced she was about to die, decided to contact her mother.
Now her parents and most of her old friends have totally rejected her... even being introduced to any of them means being judged... you can see it in their eyes "I think he's a druggy too..."
And, years later, she's still struggling to rebuild trust and respect.
Hmmm. As sad as suggesting hiding something from your parents may be, sometimes it seems like the only way.

So whats the overall belief?
Tell 'em or don't tell 'em?
I was in the year above anna wood @ skool, and my aunt works in the ER @ st vincents, therefore, my parents are totally bombarded with one-sided stories, bad media etc.
I have my own place, but still like visiting my parents, but i cant do it on the weekends! I wanna tell 'em, but dont want them sitting @ home on the weekends worrying?!?!?!
hmmmmmm...
concerned/confused
 
Being a user activist, its pretty hard to keep things hidden, but my mum knew I was a drug user a long time before I came out publicly.
She has always allowed me to smoke pot or use whatever my drug at the time is in the house.
Her main philosophy has always been that the potential harm that i'm likely to get into is heaps less if i have regular contact and support from her, and that if she was unwilling to acknowledge it as a valid lifestyle choice that our relationship, which has always been really close would have really deteriorated. I certainly don't tell her everything as its just likely to worry her, but i don't deliberately hided things either. i know times when i've been losing it would have been much much harder without her and i love her heaps for it (ohhhhh....)
------------------
 
So many things, have gone through with me and my parents and drugs.
They knew when I would smoke pot and didn't say much, except when I was sick one time my mum laughed at me and told me I'd feel better tommorrow.
As for chems, I always thought yeah they know, but they know I'm not stupid and they trust me, so its better not to bring it up cause my mum will freak.
Anyway things happened and I needed my best friends help, she freaked and told her mum, she had also told her mum everything else too though and her mum being my mums best friend thought it best to tell my mum.
Anyway, I was confronted and admitted trying it, my mum was kind of relaxed about it, sort of. She was worried because in her training to be a radiographer back in england she worked grave shift at a hospital and saw 2 of her friends come in overdosing on something, frothing at the mouth and die.
She had that in the back of her mind, I assured her I was fine and understood what I was doing, she has always been aware of other friends usin drugs and knows about the times I have looked after friends who have overdosed so she knew she could trust me, I got grounded for a month, and then all was fine, she leaves me to coem home when I am recovered now rather than pushing for sunday morning. She just tells me she loves me and to be careful before I go out, just in case, she knows she can't stop it so she might as well be there.
We don't talk about it, its still a touchy subject, but the bad thing is, if I am extra happy , like being stupid and continuously bouncing and giggling she will assk me to check my eyes to see if I am on anything..
Its terrible.. esp. that she knows what to check.

It seems like most people know how their parents will react to drug use before they actually have that first confessional. Sometimes, however, parents can be surprising. My admittance came on the heels of another, separate conversation I had with my mother about other very personal and "bad" issues in my life. So if she was disappointed in me before, I just gave her more reason for being so. Unfortunately, I have the tendency to hide somewhere between truth & lies, so my story of having tried E came out a lot more muddled than I would have liked. We eased into it by discussing the history/effects/chemistry of E, so maybe it helped disspell some of the media rumors a bit. I know that her biggest fears, being an immigrant from working-class Europe who was "never" exposed to these bad things, are much the same as most parents': that I can't trust the exact contents of a pill, and that this will eventually lead to becoming a heroin addict and death by overdosing. Cheering, her confidence in me.
I have a feeling she won't ask again. But like others have mentioned, good moods will probably be blamed on E from now on.
 
cicciolina: heh that's a name of an italian porno movie star...hahaha...died while having sex sith a horse...BWUAHAHAHAHA
smile.gif

uh...now...resompose urself...um...my verdict is don;t tell themn unless u have to!
 
so cicci, come back for more aye? Bend over and i'll do you twice as hard this time.
Dont mess with the horse.
bwa hahahahahaha *insert evil laugh and rolling hands together mr.burns style*
 
I havent told my parents, but if my mum came straight out and asked me I dont know what my response would be. I have a great relationship with her, and find it hard to lie to her. Now my dad.....thats a totally different story.
My mum mentions drugs every time I go out. Are there drugs there etc? I just tell her that I guess so. I say, not many people drink so I guess there is some on drugs. She askes me how I manage to stay up all night and I tell her its because I dont get drunk!! I say that the music and vibe etc get you going.
Its hard to lie - but then again would the truth be even harder?
 
Just a little funny story; I'd been pilling (quite regularly) for about 6 months last year, and my mum had been getting a bit suspicious about why i'd been coming home at 7am ,eyes wide as can be and not stumbling around, rather than coming home at 4am blind drunk. Then , just before heading off to NY2K she says " Have a good time, don't take any little pills.." bwwwwwuaahahaaaaa!!! My response was (cos i knew she knew about me Eing) " Well , i won't be drinking. Cya!
I tried sooo hard not to crack up , but as they say , ignorance is bliss....and i think she had a good night on the piss..
