How Can I Help A Friend Who Started Smoking Crack Cocaine Again?

Question

I have a friend who was clean for a year and a half and recently she started using using crack cocaine again, How can I help her? What should I do? Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Turn her in ASAP. The sooner the better. You can't help her otherwise. This will be the biggest help. It's her life.

Answer 2

I don't know the answer. I recently heard that an old friend was smoking crack. I don't like cocaine at all but I found myself thinking about how I could help him. I know his father and I could go talk to him confidentially. It would allow an alternative to an aggressive punishment. I don't want to see him lose his job over such a waste. Perhaps you could find a person that could convince her that she is headed in the wrong direction. Remember some people have more power over certain individuals than others.

Answer 3

Start up by saying smoking is dangerous to her health. Secondly try to be by her most of the time to prevent her from smoking. Also advise her to know the type of friends she goes along with.

Answer 4

Well if she don't want the help you can't make her get help. She would have to want help in other for it to work. All you can do is stay away from your friend until she gets clean

Answer 5

you should talk to your local mental health center or other drug rehab therapists. maybe you can get some friends and family together, along with the professionals, and schedule and intervention. if your friend doesn't get help, well I don't have to tell you the consequences do I?

Answer 6

Tell her you can't watch her kill herself. You can't help her, only she can do that. Show your concern and hope she listens.
