Welcome Thorns325,
We can not tell you how to handle or help an addict find recovery. For each person, every situation, each drug is different. Sometimes in trying to help, we wind up enabling them to do it even more and for more reasons. The best any of us can do is share our own experiences and you can decide what what might work for your situation.
Read through some posts and some older ones too. then read through some of the addicts posts and see how hard the struggle is for them. You'll here more truths here than you will here from your own addict. Keep reading and posting here.
I will tell you this; if it is a family member, friend, or lover you will be too close to them to help they need professional help. There are 12 step programs for both the addict and the addicts family, seek one out near you.
