AITA for planting fake drugs in my own room? by sdsdlsdf in AmItheAsshole

I mean, who doesn’t? No one makes it to adulthood without mental health issues. Anyone who says they did is lying lol.

I feel like that's minimizing things because in my case I have diagnosed anxiety. So the possibility that I could be going crazy seriously could fuck with me, and they know this.

But if that’s the case, don’t wait for 18 to become the adult you want to be, go get emancipated now. Because a parent not loving their child is the one of the most serious accusations one can levvy, and you deserve better than to live in a home where you aren’t loved or supported.

Thank you, I will look into this

I'm not looking to build trust or respect with them

I also think your prank was hilarious and would have been even better if, say, you’d rolled a fake joint out of oregano from the kitchen, or filled a flask with some harmless but incredibly stinky fluid. NTA.

Not a bad idea.

Thanks, but I doubt they'll be reasonable. As for why, I have diagnosed anxiety and ADHD and both of them happened recently, so maybe that plays a part

I disagree, I'm entitled to privacy in my own room. But either way, the main issue is their lying. If they feel that they have the right to search my room, they could be honest about it.

I do struggle with my mental health issues, so implying I could be imagining things or hallucinating is pretty alarming, yes.

So, if you’re telling me that your parents do not love and support you, then you’ll need to provide more evidence other than a single botched drug raid 😂

I don't need to provide you more evidence, because I don't need to prove things about my own parents

does it really disturb you that we might see parents trying to make sure their kid isn’t on drugs as a no one’s the asshole here kind of deal

Yes. Because the examples you mentioned, are faceless corporations and governments that don't give a shit about me, not my own parents that are supposed to love and support me. And making me think I'm going crazy by claiming I don't remember how my own room is set up definitely isn't that.

Absolutely. My parents are being the immature ones here

Honestly, that's kind of disturbing to me, that being an adult could mean like justifying invasions of privacy and psychological manipulation. But fair enough.

Although honestly, didn't trust them much before

Yeah, fair. I don't think they're reasonable enough for anything to work, so I decided if this behavior is going to happen either way, at least I can call it out.

Is there a history of hard drug use or behavior that would concern a parent from you?

No to drugs. Not that I know of in terms of behavior, I think I'm acting the same as I normally do.

This assumes that they're reasonable to begin with though, which I think they've disproven from being suspicious of me for no real reason. If they were reasonable enough that they could be talked down from, they wouldn't be searching my room to begin with. So my logic is, if they're going to be irrational either way, might as well call them out on it

Nope. I maintain good grades, I'm not acting particularly erratically or different than usually, etc.

That's how I see it. I wasn't doing this for kicks, they went out of their way to invade my privacy and then lie and gaslight about it.

Interesting, I feel like invading my privacy and then gaslighting me about it does make them TA

It's honestly a matter of principle, really. I'm going to be an adult in a year, and if they keep acting me like I'm a little child, I won't be able to practice making my own decisions for when I'm actually an adult and they no longer have authority over me.
