Good day everyone.

Just as everyday come and go,I Just can't help it but keep thinking about how hard drugs has turned my friend to a complete junkie.

This dude was my primary school classmate and at a time ago we were even considered as best friends. Somehow along the way we got admissions into different higher institutions. At first during holidays when we returned home from our different schools,I used to noticed how strange he had become. Someone who used to be very robust suddenly emaciated and I knew it wasn't as a result of hunger because his family made sure he got everything he needed in school,unlike myself who signed MoU with sapa.

Fast forward to 2019,after graduation,it all got worse. And he made his smoking habit public to the extent that he smoked on the streets. That was when his elder siblings and I had to advise him, about the damages weed and other drugs he was taking were doing to him. But it all seemed every advice we were giving him were falling upon deaf ears.

What really broke our friendship was when he was trying to lure me into weed. That was when I started to avoid him. The adage which says --"Show me your friend and I shall tell you who you are" kept ringing in my head and tho I did everything to talk him through,out of that bad habit but he wasn't getting any of it.

Just last week,when I paid my dad a visit,I saw this dude, now looking so unkept and rolling with street urchins. I only waived him and went my way.

Please guys out there,let's say no to hard drugs because it doesn't have any good effects on the human body.

What are you saying?

How do you know that he is mentally ill?

Have you conducted a psychological test on him?

Do you know that as you are there, that you've driven nuts?

Almost everyone has gone wako and not just only Jacko.

Stop puffing balderdash here.

Who still remember the dude who created a thread here about himself battling drug abuse with a very nasty and graphic wound in his hand as a result of constant needle prick? I really wanted to check up him here last week to see if he's still around and getting well but can't remember his username.
I remember him, the title of the thread is: I'm addicted to pentazocine, please help me. Search nairaland for it.

Be here thinking that posting a vague article on Nairaland will change things. The drug employed in this forum is sports gambling. Hunger na Nairaland disease.

I've a friend who recked family business because of cocaine. There's this stuff smoked in glass pipes shocked
Crack is the greatest destroyer, only extreme rehab can save, but not assured tho, some go bk to it.

Lol.
Sometimes, some of them do have moment of clarity and still go back to the business of being mad. Treatment is key

Help the guy . Wetin ur wave wan do for him..Talk to him and his family,and move him to rehab. When he is done there,help him change location.. Guide him to being a worker in church.. A bible believing church o,not like the church of Amos in Abuja or the one that says Gogberd is enjoyment to him.
The addict's family should be the one to do all those. He's done his best for his friend to stay away from hard drugs. Him go kill himself for the guy? The family no see am to carry am go rehab?

It is not too late to take him to rehabilitation centre, 6 months there his brain will reset to factory settings when he doesn't have access to weed that period

It’s truly heartbreaking to watch someone you once shared dreams and classrooms with slowly lose themselves to destructive choices. Addiction doesn’t just change habits. it alters personality, priorities, and sometimes even identity. You did what a real friend should do: you advised him, you tried to guide him, and you protected yourself when he began to influence you negatively. That shows maturity, not betrayal.

Sometimes love from a distance is the only safe option. You can care about someone’s well-being without allowing their lifestyle to pull you down. I hope one day he finds the strength to seek help and rediscover the person he used to be. Until then, protect your peace and keep growing.
