Hello Fam!

This is something I wish I wouldn't have to do but I am left with no option as I am at the crossroads.

My brother started smoking lets say about 6-5 years ago, I only got to find out 3 years. He is my immediate elder brother so we are pretty much close, we are also from a Christian family and I can assure you that we were brought up very well. We have other elder siblings (boys).

From his story, I found out he started smoking when he got into University. He got into the federal university in my state and since we weren't based there, he lived alone in the family house.

This is someone who got into school and for his first year studying engineering, he had a very strong 2.1 and bagged Agbami scholarship. Fast forward to 3 years later, he dropped to a 2.2(which he later graduated with) and lost his Agbami scholarship. This same year he came home for hols and started being all by himself. One way or the other, my parents caught him smoking one day, dad scolded him, mum did same but later on went to plead with him to stop. He promised he would but still went back to smoking.

Right now before he goes to someone's house to maybe spend few days he would ask questions like: is there a backyard, is there a lone time in the house? Privacy etc, just so he would smoke.

He smokes weed EVERY single DAY!!!
And now he is getting really slim, anytime I try to talk to him about it he gets angry and walks away.

Just few days ago I noticed he has been drinking something he calls "purple"(he mixes it with maybe coke or ChiExotic). I went into his room and saw a bottle of tutolin which is obviously his "purple". I asked him why he was drinking it, he said he felt like and I told him I was gonna tell someone in the family.

NOW TO MY QUESTION

Should I go ahead and tell a family member/all or I should keep talking to him?


Check this page on IG @MyGanjaMind


Weed is not as bad as people make it look.

Weed is knowledge, it elevate and pronounces your thought. The problem with weed is that many has negative/bad thought. Check out the history of American president, all of them are weed smoker down to Obama and Trump.

My opinion, core weed smokers excel in their craft if given necessary too so just leave the young man, don't frustrate him... Check @MyGanjaMind on IG and learn from this guy.

When God created Adam and eve in the garden of Eden, the fruit (good and evil) he commanded them not to eat from Is weed! Weed back in days used to be a big tree that bear fruit, on Jan 1st, California legalize Cannabis/weed, Mike Tyson got 40arcres to grow weed, there are engineers already working to domesticate weed back to the stage where the leaves won't be smoke again but the fruit will be plucked and suck.


Leave your brother and let him reason his life joor. Besides, you've never stated that he display any form of lunanic... The young man has the most strongest element of knowledge, you can't understand.

Since u are from a Christian Family... Talk to a trusted Elder/Pastor in the Church about it.... if nothing is done Invite Him to The Lords Chosen.... THE GOD OF CHOSEN WILL DEFINITELY BREAK THE YOKE

If he's already an addict (and it looks like he is) then talking cannot make him stop. That's why it's an addiction.

There are two things that can help an addict:

1. Prayers (fasting and prayer)
2. Rehab (if you're not into prayers)

Good luck either way.

If you report him or tell ur parents, you will only make things worse & he will disassociate himself from you.
your brother is passing through a phase... let him be.
weed will either lead you to distinction or destruction. your brother is intelligent he's gonna b a success.

First and foremost, he is not to be vilified by anyone including you.

Secondly, be the one who he feels comfortable with. He will share his fear and worries to you and you will never antagonise him but watch out for him. You will know the root of his motivation for smoking weed instead of normal cigarette, by being there, listening and asking questions about his habits you may have a chance to save him. Suggest options and provide them. Example is,
instead of codeine, beer or refined whiskey is a viable option that you can make available for him. Smoking cigarettes is not a crime, but weed is.

Lastly, he needs to be engaged in something. An idle mind is the devils workshop. Job, hobby, business can take ones mind off some irregular activities.

Bottom line, no one can force another to quit a bad habit.

Take him to where people like him ends up... Let him see what become of them at the long run.. Use the holy book to talk to him.. Let him see he is hurting himself.. Tell him life has no duplicate.. Please talk sense to him. Get closer to him.. I hopes he falls in love with someone.. Have seen cases when it is the lady or person which they loves changes them..
I pray God intervene in his life....

The end is destruction if he doesn't change

That's one of the things I am thankful for, I am only a social smoker of Cuban cigarettes and that's it for me. Drugs ruin people slowly, It's one of the hardest addictions to curb, involve your family members and a larger audience to see if he will listen to wise counsel

Please and please, LISTEN to this advice..
boolet:
Don't look at rehab as an option, he will end up messed up. He needs to be willing to quit first, as in, realising the need to even though he is still into it. That is a first and most important step. Next he needs a girl, help him find one, whi will love him and nag him.... At first he will sneak around, slowly but gradually. Also register him in the gym, activities to take his time. Above all, PRAY. I smoked weed for 10yrs and I've been clean for 5years without no urge...
