No one else thinks this, but I think I act like I'm high on weed a lot of the time. Especially if I'm bored, tired, running on adrenaline or sick. When I read about the way people think like when they smoke weed I feel like I think like that naturally. I've never actually done any drugs so I don't really know what they're like. I sometimes act like the guy in this video if I'm in a boring class.

The only time I'm as restless as that is if I'm bored with what I'm supposed to be doing, but boredom can also make me sit very still because I'll be off in a daydream.

A few people have assumed I do drugs, so not sure if it's because of the way I behave. I don't think I've done a lot of the things the guy did in that video though, but guess everyone's different.
I just want to shout 'I'm just NATURALLY WEIRD' at them. :lol:

One time on vacation, two young adult males (maybe 18-22 years old) approached me and asked me what I was on/what I had taken. I had not taken anything (never have either). They did not seem convinced when I told them I'm just naturally spacey/weird. They finally left when I told them I'm autistic. They were the only people who ever assumed I was on drugs.

I have never pretended to be high however I've been told at times that I look as if I'm stoned. I'm not sure what to make of that.

Well, I think I do appear high to people... Since highschool, people have thought I was perpetually stoned. They also used to buy weed off me, but I've never touched the stuff.

I've had my roommate ask me if I'm baked when I actually wasn't. I guess it was the way I giggle sometimes, like I'll crack a joke that's funny only to me and I'll giggle the same way as I am when I'm baked. So I voted Yes, there was no Sometimes option, but I don't think I act like that all the time, just at times, as someone above said when they're tired, running on adrenaline or sick - basically applies to me too. Not so much when I'm bored though.

People have wondered if I was stoned before because of my facial expressions, I was slow to respond & comprehend, & laugh at odd things.
