Need Help - Am Not Educated
Hi. I have read through much of this forum to try and get an idea as to what he is going through. But I still do not know that there is anything I can do. About three months ago I met this man, I like him very much. He is trying to get clean from Heroin after 30+ years. He is taking Methadone, but lowering his dose (I think by 5mg every week). He is also still using about once a week and sometimes more. I think this week he said three days he used. I try and do everything I can to make him more comfortable. I buy him food, bring him water and juice and milk. I ask him if there is anything I can do for him, but I think he is reluctant to ask for too much. Today he is very sick. I don't live terribly close to him, so it is hard to keep an eye on him. I am very worried. I wonder what I can do?, if anything. Should I stay at his house with him, shoud I totally leave him alone? Should I do what he asks? Please any advice from some people who know what it is like.
