I've gotten "you look like you're on drugs" countless times.

Actually yes. I go off on tangents if you engage me. Spitting vicious outlandish theories that most people take as weird, yet they make perfect sense to me.

They're other times I've been pretty high on DXM and people have taken it as the normal me. I puts me in a good mood, and everything I say is pretty positive, so people enjoy my company when I'm on it. Maybe they think I'm high, just don't want to say anything because they are afraid I'll snap and murder them or something. Rolling Eyes

The funny thing is, I don't even know how to get drugs. If you told me to go get some weed, I wouldn't know where to go. All I know is that you need to know a guy who knows a guy, and I don't even know the first guy. My drug dealer was always the liquor store. (Or in Reno, K-Mart. Gotta love those Nevada liquor laws. Jim Beam, Jack Daniels, and Absolut right next to the breakfast cereal aisle.)

Yes. I'm hyper and all fidgety and say a bunch of random nonsense things. People ask me if I'm high.

Yep. I've been refused proper medical treatment because of it before.

I don't usually get accused of using drugs, my family is used to me being rather weird so even if I am on drugs its not likely they would ask if I was, because I am already weird so they never know quite what to expect. Then on my dads side of the family most of them probably know I have used drugs and don't really care.

Usually at school people just called me retarded and thought I was either a psychopath or retarded, it would have probably been better if they thought I was on drugs.

Wow I can imagine cops searching through my house excessively because of my provoking facial expressions when they see me walking on the street on a random day and later thanking me for wasting their time when they found nothing at all.

I've been asked by some girls at the factory if I was on drugs, if I smoked any drugs or if I ever got high. They'd ask me those questions over and over again. They also called me a hippie as well because I had hair like the young Dave Davies at one point working there. Everything that I told them went in one ear and out the other. I got my hair cut because summer was coming and it was getting hot out. It didn't take those girls too long to find out that I wasn't interested in drugs or sex after that.

Yes, a few times and got asked if I knew a Guy etc..
However, they weren't always wrong so it was never much of a concern.
