I think you and your friend definately need some professional help, you both cannot do this alone. Firstly you need to go along to your doctors and explain to him. Secondly, get your friend to go and have a word with the doctor and i am sure they will be able to help him, if he wants help. But you need help to get strong before you are capable of helping others. I wish you well, and sorry that you have had to go through so much pain at such a young age. Hugs sent to you.
take care

Well in order to help anyone else in life you FIRST have to help yourself, otherwise you are either dead or are not strong enough to really help them....put the oxygen mask on yourself first get help, stay away and leave this other drug addicted person to their own devices, then if you are strong and drug free, you can go and be able to talk to him about how you helped yourself and inspire him to do the same work on himself....everyone makes their OWN choices in life regardless of who they may want to point the finger at......I hope you will get help soon before it is too late for you...god, bless.

HiThats a hell of a lot to deal with at your age.Your friend has turned to drugs the same way you turned to alcohol, because he lost his friend, not because of you. Having you will of eased it a little for him if anything.But getting him off them, thats something you cant do alone. He needs to have more downs and hit rock bottom before he can get up from this.My brother was hooked on coke, i know, thats rare, but he was. And he said he had to have enough bad come downs before he realised it wasnt worth it.Your friend needs to be put in touch with talktofrank.com or uk national drugs helpline.You might benefit from some bereavment counselling, try looking at... http://www.hospicenet.org/html/teenager.htmlYou cant do this alone.Good luck.C xxxxx
