My friend has a history of doing crazy drugs.. things I'd never dream of doing. Such as crack, K, cocaine, E Etc. She was really into it.. and got semi-clean.Lately she has been getting into it again. Yesterday.. she calls me and tells me shes stranded in a town about an hour away.. and she can't get a ride. So i tell her if she can't reach anyone in a few hours i'd come get her.. because I had plans with my family. Anyways.. I drive and go get her.. shes all cracked out.. tells me all these crazy stories about the guys she fucked.. and all the drugs she did.. and how she hasnt slept or ate for 3 days straight.. and Im REALLY disappointed. But I listen because I want to be there for her.. i want to help her.Anyways.. we're at her house.. and she told me she thought a month ago she thought maybe she could have been pregnant.. (shes already had one abortion) and wouldnt know who the dad was.. and that she had her period about two weeks before. She said she had just gotten her period and her body was in sooo much pain.. that she was having really bad cramps and really weird discharge. She called telehealth ontario and they told her to go to the hospital.Do you think she will be ok?? What do u think was happening to her and what do u think i should do about her drug issue?

I don't know what was happening to your friend. She could have been having a miscarriage or she could have been feeling the effects from all the drugs she has been doing. Did she go to the hospital?
As for her drug issue, you could have an intervention with her. Get some of your friends or family and talk to her. Also, I know you want to be there to help her by giving her rides and things, but you really should stop doing that. She needs to 'hit rock bottom' before she will help herself. I know, that is easier said than done.
I had a girlfriend a few years ago that got into heavy drug use and put herself into some really scarey situations. I begged her to stop and eventually I had to cut her out of my life. She was living with a mutual friend of ours and our friend finally insisted that she go to rehab or she was kicking her out of the house. She went to rehab and continues to be sober to this day. Thank God she went because I can only imagine what would have happened to her if she continued down that path.

what do u think i should do about her drug issue? You can be there to support her and try to convince her to clean herself up. But if she's going to drag you down then it's not worth it. Until she decides she needs help herself, then there is not a whole lot you can do.
