Have any of you been accused of being on drugs when you weren’t under the influence?
When I got a job as an intern , one day my blood sugar began to drop and I wasn’t feeling all that great(I’m also kinda eccentric).
A coworker saw me and went behind my back to my boss to badmouth me.
Later, The boss told me that the coworker told him that I was “walking funny” and that “something was wrong with me” . The boss also told me the coworker sounded very angry. I get the feeling my coworker was accusing me of being on drugs .
I had a false positive on a drug test. A second test cleared me.
My mom did. Really pissed me off because I had never even smoked a cigarette. I showed her though, I started taking drugs.
Kind of. When I was a kid, maybe 12ish, my mom found cigatette butts in the attic and asked if I was smoking. I wasn’t but it turned out my dad had reacquired the habit.
I listened to Pink Floyd in the mid seventies, so, yes.
Not me, but the guy who worked at our work gym became a friend, and he was telling me that he applied to the FBI to become an agent. It wasn’t even a test, but based on the interview, they decided he wasn’t honest about never using drugs. DQ’d him on the spot.
This guy was a total straight arrow. I doubt he’d even ever had a contact high. He was so disappointed. I wondered if it was because he was a minority? But I didn’t think Japanese-Americans had a rep for being stoners.
Yeah, once or twice. But most of the time, the accusations were true. Happily, I’ve been off them now for over 3 decades.
When falsely accused, I just provided urine for a drug screen, showing I wasn’t using. When justly accused, I got even more depressed. Glad that’s all done.
A few times. My eyes dilate… more than average, I guess, in low light conditions, and a few times I’ve had people ask me if I’m on something in fairly dark conditions because my pupils look huge. The other annoying side effect of this was that I couldn’t drive at night when I had hard contact lenses because my pupil would get big enough for weird blurry refractory effects around the edges.
Unrelated to that, once in college a literature instructor was sure she had seen me that weekend doing something and that we’d had a conversation, and she mentioned it in class and whoever she had talked to that weekend, it was not me. She got frustrated with my continued assertions that I hadn’t seen her that weekend nor taken part in the conversation she was recounting and she said “Are you high?” “No. Are you?” I responded. It sounds tense when I write it but it was a pretty light-hearted misunderstanding and we both laughed it off.
Yes, at a Con. I ran into a con security guy I had reported for bad behavior at a previous con. It was very late at nite, I was tired, but also full of caffeine. He insisted he had to look inside my oversized cup.
I refused, we argued, and a real cop who happened to be at the front desk wandered over. He asked me 'well, why don’t you let him check your cup?" I said “he never asked nice”, the cop chuckled , asked nice and I handed him my cup, which he said was full of watered down diet cola and mostly melted ice. The security guy insisted that I was on drugs too, and the cop said “No, he is just tired, it is 4 AM”. and I went to bed.
You seem to have many problems with other people treating you badly and underhandedly, or at least you feel that this is the case.
Caused about $60,000 damage to a wing flap on a 737, I ran a rolling ladder into it. Immediately told my supervisor. Soon a couple upper management types were looking at what I did. I had known one of them for years, he told me to go pass the drug test and I would be back to work within an hour. The other upper management type, a guy I really didn’t know, suggested I just clean out my locker and leave my badge at the badge office. I was back on the job 45 minutes later.
To the OP. Judging from this and other threads.
I was once falsely accused of being drunk. Not of acting drunk or otherwise appearing drunk, but I was at a party where someone thought they saw me downing drink after drink and prevailed on another person to seize my car keys to prevent me from driving home. (In reality I had had one small and mild drink - probably the equivalent of about 1/3 of an ounce of alcohol.) The guy - who was frankly a bit drunk himself, and thus difficult to deal with - refused to give back my keys and I had to call my wife to pick me up. Very annoying.
I have, to my knowledge, never consciously and deliberately partaken of an illegal drug in my life, not even one joint (I have drunk coca tea on multiple occasions in the Czech Republic - and I am not aware of it being banned by law here, though I could be wrong). However, at times when I was nervous, tired or depressed, my mother asked me if I was on any drugs. What wasn’t clear to her was that it was HER bullying and narcissistic behavior that was largely responsible for my being in that state, not any drug.
I once had someone call the flight school I was taking lessons at and claim I was a drug addict and an alcoholic. Fortunately, they laughed their asses off at him.
When I was in high school, because my clothes and hair reeked of tobacco due to my parents’ smoking habits I was frequently accused of being a smoker although I have never smoked. At all. Never even tried cigarettes once. But I wasn’t believed. Thanks mom and dad. 
Dad apologized once or twice about it, mom never did.
I got pulled over by the stateys for suspicion of DUI around 11pm one Friday night last fall. Cop said I swerved. I really don’t think I did. I’m guessing having out of (neighboring, < 10 miles from the border) state plates may also have had something to do with it
I did the maths; I did have one, single 12oz beer…13 days earlier.
As a freshman in HS, I went to a buddy’s house at lunch, and came in contact with pet dander, which made me have a terrible allergic reaction - including blazing red eyes. I went to the office to get permission to go home to get some antihistamine and of course, the people there saw the red eyes just after lunch and of course thought I was baked.
Most any time after that year, they’d have been right, but not that day.
They told him? When I got rejected, they didn’t even bother to tell me why.
Condsidering the times i applied in, it probably wasn’t drugs. It wasn’t LSD - I wasn’t LDS enough.
Forty years later, yea I’m still a bit bitter…
One day when I was in high school, I think Junior year, I was called to the Vice Principal’s office. He started taking really vaguely about how sometimes he’d have a student who would come in and tell him about classmates who they thought were doing drugs. In my mind I’m thinking, “I’m not going to narc on my friends!”
Turns out someone else had told him they thought I was doing drugs. Funny thing was I had never even smoked a cigarette or had a can of beer at that point.
My best friend’s mom, who happened to be a guidance counselor at the school, asked him about it and he just laughed out loud.
