Cocaine addict son

My son is heavily addicted to cocaine and has been for a few years. I don’t know how to help him and I’m desperate. He’s 25 and has a loving family with me, his dad and his sister. We need any advice on how to help him quit.
thankyou

Hi Wendy
you posted in our Forum Help section, so I moved your thread here to Newcomers forum - you will get more response here

Unfortunately the first step towards change really needs to come from your son - has he shown any desire to quit himself?

Glad you found us here at Sober Recovery!

Does he live at home? Does he work? Is he paying rent? Some things to be considered here. Usually recovery begins with ourselves wanting to be sober a bit more than we want to use or drink.

Have you considrered Al Anon or Nar Anon for families of addicts?
