Yes...but I was so I guess they were spot on. :P Even so, having stopped more than a few years ago, some people still think I am, and my friends tell me I've got some kinda perma high going on.

Once in grade 11 I was in math class and my contacts were really bothering me. They made my eyes look bright red and they kept tearing. A girl in my class kept bugging me about it and saying I was stoned. I just said I wasn't and it was my contacts and I ignored her.

One time I visited my friend's house a couple of years ago and her dad thought that I was on drugs just because I was so shy, I didn't like looking into peoples eyes and I was really avoidant plus we spend a lot of time in her bedroom. He asked if we were smoking in there and we weren't. He doesn't like me because I'm so shy. Actually that goes for a lot of my friends parents, a lot of them don't like me because of my low self-esteem and shyness. It was cute when I was younger, all of the parents loved me but now that I'm older they all seem to be suspicious of me.

I've always had bags under my eyes even though I sleep normally, and had always ahd a laid back personality, some people back in high school commented asking if I was high, lol. xD

I got high on caffeine yesterday, drinking too much tea.
My mom had on blue sparkly eye shadow.
I told her she was a beautiful mermaid.

Me too. Even if I was interested which I'm not I wouldn't want to go into some bad neighborhood to find some random guy on the street that may or may not be an undercover cop and I'm too socially phobic to approach a random stranger anyways.

I might know of a friend of a friend that smokes and maybe I could ask them to hook me up but I'm not interested and probably wouldn't ask even if I was.

I don't go out much and as far as I know no one thought I was on drugs for a long time but when I was a teenager there were times that people thought I looked high when I wasn't. Once when I was going to school in a day treatment program in a mental hospital they even forced me and another girl to do drug tests because of the way we were acting. Mine actually came up positive. Either it was a false positive or they got the samples mixed up because I had never done any drug of any kind at that point and had never even been drunk.

My first probation officer asked me if I ever "took a hit off a joint" and got mad at me when I didn't know what she meant.

Might I suggest a Photobucket account? You can upload with your phone and access the photos on the website.

Had that happen too. Yay. I probably get asked if I'm on drugs like once every 2 months, if I were to average it out. Yay.

Yeah, the police. Pulled me over, so I was feeling a fair amount of anxiety. Accused me of being high because I was all fidgety and wouldn't meet their eyes for more than a second or two. Kept calling me a liar when I told them I wasn't on anything.

Cuffed me and searched me, and sat me on the curb (this was in front of my apartment building, so all my neighbors could see the whole thing which didn't exactly help with the anxiety) while they searched my car.

By the time they gave up on that, I'd been in the cuffs for over half an hour. They came back to me, started asking again what I was on. Then one said (bear in mind that I'm already cuffed and seated, not being uncooperative in any way) "please don't make me use force sir," and I just lost it. Couldn't hold back the panic attack anymore, started hyperventilating, couldn't speak, couldn't stand when they pulled me to my feet.

They called an ambulance. By the time it showed up, the panic attack had faded somewhat and been replaced by anger. Told them I didn't want to go to the hospital. They tried to force me into the ambulance. Started screaming at them "I'm not on anything, I haven't done s**t and you know it, now take these f*****g cuffs off and let me go!"

Took me to the hospital. Almost an hour cuffed to a gurney in the hall. Talked with a doctor for a bit. Explained that it was a panic attack, explained that they'd been threatening me (god bless him for taking my side). Was tested for drugs, test came back clean. Doctor explained to cops that I was clean, that I was mentally sound, that my reaction was due to the stressful situation I'd been put in.

I'm pretty sure that, at this point, the cops were realizing their mistake. Feared a lawsuit. So they let me go. Took the cuffs off and left. Hospital gave me bus tokens to get home.

Unfortunately, not my only encounter like this with police. Just the worst one.

Hmm people always asked me that almost every day in high school because of my eyes, apparently it looks like i'm always smoking weed. I still think its pretty weird i mean everyone has different eyes right?
