No offence bro, what did he graduate with? I mean his grade, since he got addicted because of wanting to read well.

Best observation and question I've seen this year. I'm waiting for the answer too

Hello good evening guys hope we good?
let me go straight to the point I've got this friend of mine who stays in the same estate her with me in ibeju-lekki area this young man is in his late twenties and also a graduate, this his addiction started way back when we were still undergraduate.

He used to use this particular drug just because of reading sake Co's he once told me his brain it's always at it's peak whenever his on this drug and he tends to assimilate anything he reads, now he's outta school though he got side hustle put guys my guy is outta hand the rate at which he takes this drugs now is alarming the reason I'm saying this is simply on the fact that I was with him yesterday evening and I needed him to enter d number of a mechanic he recommended for me to fix ma car,... his hand was really shaking badly that I noticed he had to quickly adjust by using the other hand to hold on to the phone, I tried engaging him into a man on man conversation but he reluctantly snapped out! so when we drove to his apartment I noticed just when his was about to take a leak just outta curiosity I entered his room and saw lots of sachets of these particular drugs I mean lots of it, so I confronted him and there he goes telling me he can't go a day without taking nothing less than 800-1000mg I didn't know when I said Jesus, and he is always aggressive I'm just feeling very concerned the thing is that he doesn't listen to me on matters like this, and he's fiance is a nurse and she's also not aware of his addiction

His mother too isn't aware although both his mum and girl are close to me I'm thinking of bringing them into talking to him especially his fiance Co's I know he loves and respects her and would most likely listen to her, but at the same time I don't want to be seeing as a snitch and end up spoiling our relationship he'll never tell me anything and most likely won't trust me! how Do I bring them to know about this without making it all pointing to me, note I'm the only one he opened up to.. even he's fiance as close as she is she has no idle about his addiction and seriously assuming he's only taking it occasionally I won't mind or maybe taking it on a low quantity I'll just be about fine but a thousand mills daily hahba he needs help!
for God sake allow him to die so other young guy can learn

Convince him to go to a good hospital for medical help and make sure you go together, he needs to be examined and detoxified. If he is left like this, he could just slump and die one day oh!

Tramadol that even the hawkers in Tata buses will advise that it should be taken every other day is what someone is taking as much as 800 - 1,000mg daily?

Pls open up to both the fiancee and the mom. If you succeed in saving him today and temporarily destroys the relationship, the same relationship can be mended later when he becomes a normal human being again rather than keeping quiet and destroying him for ever!

Bunch of iniquitous people! Bunch of confused hypocrites! You will all destroy your lives except you become real! The Op is probably a beneficiary of the sex orgies which tramadol promotes. You hate truth and anyone who peddle it... but only the truth will make you free

I need your help guys. I have been diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis based on my chest X-ray result.
At the T. B center, I was given a container to collect my sputum for sputum test. But the major problem, I have now is that when I cough I don't normally bring out sputum.
How do I induce myself, to produce sputum.
Advice urgently needed

At this level, he cannot possibly stop by himself, he needs medical help and constant monitoring of his vital signs while he is slowly weaned off it.

Involve the decision makers in his family so that they can commit him to a rehab centre. He may be pissed at you initially, but he will surely be grateful to you later (if he has any sense at all). A friend deserves loyalty, and normally you should keep his secrets, but not at the expense of his life or anyone else's. The fact that he got hooked on a drug shows that he is not responsible enough to be left alone to handle his affairs successfully. Reporting him is the best help you can offer him.

he needs tobbe admitted in a hospital especially a psychiatric one. in six weeks they will detox it out of his system.

Bro this is the best advice u can get here. U need to have a down to earth conversation with him and possibly invite a 3rd party or else u might end up losing that friend of yours.. i have seen people die from substance/alcohol abuse.
There are now psychiatric hospitals in lagos that can help give proper therapy to addicts like your friend.

What does kolanut do?


Kolanut works almost the same way as tramadol, it strengthens you, kills hunger, chase away sleep and helps with assimilation

He is an addict if you understood the pathology of addiction you would not have said that.

Trust me, i've been there, done that. I've had to deal with several addictions in the past and one thing they all have in common is, they rarely pop up when your hands are filled, so, instead of lazying around, I prefer to get busy and with this simple method, i am a survivor of cigarette, alcohol and pornography addiction. I hope you understand where I am coming from now

It takes just two weeks to stop the drug and its withdrawal effect. Most opiate users wants to stop but the withdrawal effect is not easy, but there are drugs that can help him out of it if he had made a decision to stop.

Bro, save his life today. Another day's cover up would move his life nearer to grave. He needs serious rehabilitation... like serious one. I'm talking from experience. Cheap drugs kills faster.
I was a big time drug addict. Name the drug, tramz,swinol,reph,smoke anything...I mean smoke anything and drink like I'm about to be executed. All these in one day. I fight anybody who try to convince me to stop but nobody tell me when I eventually fall sick.
These shits Bleep with your liver, kidney, lung, heart, sight, respiration, and even your brain.


He needs serious help. He might hate you for it but just do what you gotta do for him. You owe him dat one. He has Sign of parkinson disease already
