They think I'm heavy into drugs, which isn't true, I smoke weed, and I think they've known that for some time, but they're under the impretion recently that I'm into hard drugs, which isn't the case.They also think I'm an Alcoholic, all because they catch me drunk once a month or so, I drink on weekends, which really isn't that uncommon at my age, but my entire family is very straight-edge so they really can't relate at all when I tell them I'm not addicted.And recently some asshole has been caling my house (prank calls) asking for me then leaving fake names and stuff, so my mother thinks I'm selling drugs.They never believe a word I say and I'm pretty sure they're ashamed of me, even when I come home sober I feel uncomfortable because they will accuse me of being drunk.Any advice on what I can do to get them to relax a bit? (and please don't suggest I stop smoking/drinking), Thanks.

Well, I don't know what would happen to you legally since you smoke pot, but volunteering to take a drug test might work so they can at least see you aren't doing hard drugs, but confirm the suspicion that you smoke pot (or maybe don't do it for a while and then volunteer). The alcohol thing might be tricky, but you could get one of those home breathalizers and show them when you come home sober.
The problem is that these might open a new can of worms and they may want to do these things regularly and will eventually catch you up.
