How do you hide drug use from people?

I been trying to find friends but I feel like I have to hide my psychedelic use. I am going to not mention it to anyone in real life because the stuff I use will mess you up really hard. I don’t want to give the stuff to anyone until I really get to know them and I’m confident it won’t hurt them. I know I can handle any drug but I’m not sure everyone can. Like I would be fine with smoking weed with someone I don’t know but I wouldn’t feel comfortable giving them legit tryptamines. It’s hard because drugs are basically all I care about and I don’t know what to talk about with people.

Go to community college, find non-drug activities you enjoy.
There is more to life than getting high, it's just really easy to zoom way too far into getting high all the time because it's not all that challenging compared to actually living life.
I see people give you frequent guff online, but you seem a lot brighter than folks give you credit for.
Some activities such as art and music tend to go hand in hand with drug use, but I'm always surprised with how much fun they can be sober.
Also, you can't get fucked up if you stay fucked up. It may seem counter-intuitive, but the more breaks you take, the higher you can get in the long run.

Just don't talk about it. The only people that really know i get high are family and friends i have known most of my life. To the rest of the world i probably seem like i have the most boring life in history

You're very young right?
Try to do non - drug activities from time to time...

Then do just that. Keep it hidden.
Your drug use is for YOU and YOU only. Seeking out other 'like minded' folk (especially outside of the alkie/pothed crowd) is going to prove more difficult.
Find people that you enjoy (and trust) hanging out with enough while NOT under the influence, so that way when you DO hang out with them under the influence (whether it be with you or not) you will be that much safer and in good company.
Not everyone enjoys our vices. And thats okay. As long as they respect mine.

I don’t consider my drug use a vice, and I live in a part of the country where people are open minded and it is decriminalized, so I can talk about it.
I’m also middle aged, so most of my peers are not only open to psychedelics, but they’ve all done them, and the new resurgence makes it even more likely to be a topic of conversation. With michel Pollan and Paul Stamets on Netflix, it’s pretty haremless chatter around here.

Offline i work in a very professional field, so i fully live a double life. Pick and choose your words with whomever you're speaking. I very sparingly tell folks that i microdose, mostly to people when we are chatting about mental health and/or overall health+fitness. It's always been met with curiosity but i also know i'm telling the "right" people who would be receptive to that. If they prod further and ask if i trip, i am honest and again met with interest. But i certainly wouldn't bring it up to my manager because he's a beer and cigars kinda guy, he isn't even into weed, so he might not be as interested.
And that also applies to what drugs to talk about. I'll tell anyone i use weed because it's so accepted around my area, no one cares. Mushrooms i'm more cautious/picky with. Coke, i'll make jokes that imply i have used, but again REALLY read the room on that one. Personality also matter too, almost everyone that knows me well enough, and it slips out that i'm into drugs, they are completely unsurprised. Guess i just have the aura that tells people i'm a casual drug user  
As far as conversation topics go, do you have any hobbies? If not maybe find some that aren't drug-centric, and expand your friend group.

THIS is the way to go, 10/10 advice right here.

I don't. Frankly, at my age, my circle of friends has shrunk considerably but become tighter at the same time. None of them care much either way, and most would appreciate the opportunity to join me. I don't do well in crowds, straight, stoned, or otherwise, so I avoid them regardless of my mental status. If someone asks, I tell them the truth straight out. If my response bothers the questioner, we simply part ways peacefully. I've never had anyone get aggressive about it, but I have dealt with people who've gotten pushy about other things. They soon learn the folly of fucking with someone who's already pissed off about being old and doesn't see a life sentence as a deterrent. Besides, I'm just not clever enough to weave a web of lies and keep track of them well enough to avoid tripping (no pun intended) over them.
Before I retired, my work required a security clearance so it was necessary to be discreet to some degree. But even then, few people gave a shit one way or another in the Silicon Valley. As long as you can code cleanly and don't break any NDA's, no one's gonna cry foul.

You seem like u care which is cool. (Not everybody cares and not everybody is permanent)
Whatever it is that u do; do it with passion or love. For what u love to do.......
I used to be a competitive guy and be way far into sports until one day i had nothing and had to find happiness again.
Now that ive found hapiness (before) I now see competition as a little bit irrelevent.
At the end of the day i just want to be happy and have a good F-&@$in time.
What is in it for you and what do you want?
Hell if its hiding your drug use to family or friends for your own well being.... it dont make u a terrorist.
