My parents think i’m lying but i’m not! what do I do?

my parents called me to the kitchen and said that when i went out with some friends last night i was drinking. i told my mom when she picked me up what happened how there was some teenagers drinking and that i didn’t know who and how the manager of the establishment questioned me and asked if i was drinking. i said no, and i walked in a straight line when she asked me to. they say i had a shot of rum and then ran to the restroom and threw up but that’s not true. i only drank a bottle of water that i bought and at three points i ran to the bathroom but the first time was because i had an anxiety attack, the second time was because i was having an emotional break down and i was crying, and the third time was because i was calling someone. i don’t drink at all. one of the kids that i actually did know who was drinking has been snitching on everyone saying that me and a bunch of my friends who were there were drinking when we weren’t. the manager claims that she has photographed and video proof that i ran to the restroom with my hand around my throat but i assume that she’s thinking of when i was crying i had my hand covering my mouth and i was shaking. i pushed passed a bunch of people and then came out a few minutes later when i called down. i don’t know how i’m supposed to convince them i’m telling the truth when they’re dead set on the fact i’m lying.

Stick to your story. Sound convincing. Answer questions fully and without drama. Challenge them to provide creditable evidence or credible accounts. Explain just how stressed you were at the time.
May help, may not.

Don't fight it, they are wanting the best of you. Your account is troubling of keep running to the restroom. Its that you need to sort out...

These things happen to me and no one believes me. I have the same issues.
Try drilling your facts, the truth, in there minds. If that doesn’t work then I can be no use.

Call their bluff get them to have a forensic examination of the video and photos. Remind them, too, it may be illegal to photograph minors. It can be very suspect in UK!

Also these vids and pics are not conclusive evidence. There are many legitimate reasons for someone to rush to the ladies loo clutching their throat! A really hot peppermint sweet?

There must be actual vid or pics of you drinking what is unmistakably an alcoholic drink.

there isn’t. theyre just basing it on what people are saying. and the only think i drank was a bottle of water i bought from a vending machine

Tell them they must provide concrete evidence. They must not rely on anecdotal evidence from what people say.

prove it by having them take your blood hair or pee test that will make them. see the truth

Have them take you to get a lie detector test.

They can buy a breathalyzer to prove you’re telling the truth, they have no proof that you were drinking so they should trust you unless otherwise

Do you have a bad past with lying?

Meaning, are you trustworthy?
