    I'm really worried about my friend. I love this person so much but he has been abusing oxycontin. He was already in rehab for it but apparently rehab didn't help. He isn't the same person at all anymore. He's turned into an asshole who is always drunk or high and treats the people in his life terribly. I'm probably the only person who hasn't given up on him. I don't know what I should do. I don't know how to help him. I'm so worried about him and it hurts me to worry about him hurting himself all the time. I want to suggest rehab but I feel like if it didn't work before, it probably wouldn't now... especially if he doesn't want to quit/doesn't think his drug and alcohol problem is out of control. Advice?

    I supose there really is nothing you can do, he has to want to quit. I'm sure you heard this before but seriously when he gets good and sick of it then he will be ready to hear how much you care and want to be there for him when he is ready. maybe pray about it for now.

    Let him do his thing. Maybe you should give it a try, it's good shit :). Plus there's nothing that pisses off a user more then having a friend/family critisize them on it, take it from me.

    Yeah let your buddy hit rock bottom. You cant become addicted to helping him thats just as bad.

    yea, all you can do at this point is voice your opinion to him so that hes aware of how you feel. and the longer he continues the worse he will get. the cons slowly start to outweigh the pros. it wont take long for him to hit bottom. then you can suggest a way to get him off the oxys or rehab might be beneficial if he truly realizes his physical addiction to ocs. but all you can do is wait until he comes looking for help. i hope everything turns out good.
