stop being their friend, and if they ask why your treating them like crap, just say “I just wish you wouldn’t smoke…”

let her decide who she likes more, you, or her dope.

Tell her parents.If she is a teen they can cut off her funding and send her to a rehabilitation center.Talk to her parents about the cause of her drug addiction.She is trying to get away from the pain of her life so you need to find the cause and try to remove it if you really are her friend.

My dear Nicole….

First of all : congratulations to Y O U for being such a concerned & true FRIEND!!!! GREAT!!!
Second… – and I speak out of…experience… all “restrictiocs” or whatever was mentioned before is NONSENCE & will N O T work!!! I’ve been through … all of that…. – One MUST go to the :ROOT of the problem, because ANY time one uses any type of …”substance”…there is something DEEP within the person that he/she is… “longing” for….

You must understand, that…substance abuse is ALWAYS a way to overcome some ….”inadequacies” of live…(most likely, she has “difficulties” with her parents, siblings – or – life in general)….- Now to the …”treatment”… For a therapy she must be : WILLING ! Otherwise, it’s of NO USE !!! What I can suggest is: regular sessions with a : Psycho-therapist are advisable, because a competent therapist CAN get to the “ROOT” Of her problem & solve it professionally!!!

Wish you the BEST of success – greetings from Germany -Annette***
