CVSA disaster

[newcomer]

Hi everyone,

I am new to this site.  Before I went to take my CVSA for a LE position I found your site and read what everyone had to say about it.    

I want to share my experience with you.  I was a little nervous but was going to be telling the truth so, I thought I had nothing to worry about.  Boy, was I wrong.  I was found deceptive in a few areas.  1) IV drug use 2) selling drugs 3) fired from job.  These results blew me away.  I have never been fired from a job, this they can verify.  I have never sold drugs and have never used them IV.  

My mother is a heroin user and my father is no better.  Could this have been what they were reading in my voice when they asked these questions?  I have worked my whole life to be nothing like them and now I feel that my dignity is under attack.  I am heart broken and confused any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

The CVSA is more of a sham than polygraphy.  You probably understand this considering the result of your "test."  The fact that your parents were users is irrelevant.  These tests are bogus and wouldn't hold up to the slightest scientific scrutiny.  Probably your only recourse is to appeal the result.  Good luck.
