My girlfriend started smoking drugs a couple of weeks ago, since then she has been moody and rude to everyone?

Question

Is it the drugs doing this? she is very hard to be around at the moment. she used to do it years ago but stopped when we got together. Any help much appriciated

Answer 1

What kind of drugs? Maybe she's smoking drugs because she's feeling moody? Maybe there's something that's bothering her.

I've never seen anybody become moody or rude from drug abuse... Unless you're counting booze.

Answer 2

It could be the drugs however she might also be experiencing guilt which causes her to be angry with herself. I'm assuming she stopped doing drugs years ago at her own will. Since she backslided a little bit she probably feels pathetic, remorseful and weak. The anger she feels towards herself is probably the thing that is causing her to be moody and rude. If I were you I would sit her down and say, "I know you started doing drugs again and I am a little disappointed but it's okay. I still want you to be my girlfriend. We can work together to try and get you to quit." Just let her know that you still really care about her.

Answer 3

Subtle changes in mood behavior, irrationality and prone to get angry easily, overall personality changes, withdrawal,excitability followed by periods of depression irritabilityto mention a few, are all typical signs of a drug addiction. Once a drug addict will always be one unless she gets help and kicks the habit totally.And this treatment will only if effective if the drug addict herself desires it. As this requires total behavior modification. I suggest you strongly encourage her to get help and that you'll be there to support her. Otherwise she's on her own, because dealing with somebody like that spells trouble. It can be an arduous journey and very emotionally draining. Is she worth it, is the main question you should ask yourself. And from the looks of things, with her past history; most likely she won't be willing to change and kick the habit.

Answer 4

You deserve a healthy, wholesome girlfriend in your life and you should seek her out.
But, your ARE morally obligated to help this person get back to her drug free state because you should have left her immediately as soon as she started up again. Because you didn't leave she took is as a signal of approval. Now, weeks later, you can't stand the situation.
Contact someone with professional help for an intervention and then you can be free to move on and do what's best for you.

Answer 5

i feel alot of empathy for the "younger generation". current planetary events are not exactly the stuff dreams are made of, and i'm sure they're not feeling too optomistic about their future. i'm quite a bit older, and even the benefit of experience and the bit of detachment that it provides, doesn't totally offset some pangs of anxiety. perhaps she's feeling somewhat overwhelmed "by it all". she has the world situation plus the confusion, etc. that goes with "youth" to contend with. nevertheless, she still needs to make wiser choices regarding her health and well-being. i would suppose some type of "intervention" plus rehab/counseling is called for here. especially as it sound like she's using "the bad stuff", which could completely ruin her health, at least. best of luck!

Answer 6

Most likely
She's probably being difficult bcuz she's reintro'ing old drugs into her bod
Of course, if she would like to reach middle age, I would suggest stopping the drug (ab)use and NOW.
Ask her to stop for, say, a week and see how she acts then(after the withdrawal period, naturally)

Answer 7

I know you love her and would do anything for her, so the best thing you can do is, call the narcotics squad and tell them u suspect shes got drugs in the house and that shes using, or tell her that u called them and give her a choice, rehab or jail

Answer 8

Its not too late to intervene again. She might go back to the habit once more. Drugs affect every aspect of our personality. You better seek help from competent people or if its that worst,have her rehabilitated right away.

Answer 9

If she is smoking pot, who cares? Unless it gets "out of hand". If she is doing ANYTHING else and it makes you feel uncomfortable, you need to take the necessary steps to help her or leave her. If she was an addict before you met her, well surprise...you are an addict for life.

Answer 10

you should convince her to stop because sooner or later overdose on drugs are going to kill her and yes drugs are doing this to her. you should try to talk to her as soon as possible.
