Okay, so I just found out that my friend is doing drugs. She doesn't know that I know, and I don't know how to approach her about this. I've talked to my role-model about all this, because I tell her EVERYTHING, but I really want to bring it up with my friend. I just don't know what to say to her. I mean, I am "good girl," and I would NEVER EVER do drugs, drink, or ANY of that stuff. I really disapprove of her doing this, and it scares me because it's the first time I've had to deal with this kind of stuff, but like....any advice? Thanks guys!

But um, just make sure that when you talk to her, she is not high or else she will not understand what you are saying to her.

do you know this from experience? You talk a lot for having nothing to say.

im so glad you did not fall victim to one of the world's temptations. Drugs are definitely a way to get yourself depressed and its ver Unhealthy for us.
I think that you should talk to your friend, and tell that friend of yours that what she is doing is not ok and she is probably just ruining her health. But um, just make sure that when you talk to her, she is not high or else she will not understand what you are saying to her.

if you arent her friend anymore it just shows you werent real friends in the first place.

i've done cocaine many times, its not bad at all. just think about drinking 3 cups of coffee, and your face is numb.

WELL, to update....she's been doing drugs for a year now.....she's having sex.....making out with her sister.....looking at porn in class....all kinds of really dumb stuff....so we aren't really friends anymore. Thanks to everyone who replied though!

I don't know if this should really be that big of a deal, unless it's a really serious drug, like heroin or cocaine (both of which are ridiculously dangerous) I understand that you're concerned about your friend (congrats to you for being a great friend, by the way), but I don't know if you should be quite this worried, especially if you're not even 100% certain this isn't just some stupid rumor.

There are a lot of resources you can point her towards, just drop little hints, like joke about it with her or something, see if she gets mad or gets serious and wants to talk to you first....

Good luck.

hey.. i have a problem with one of my friends like that.. i approched him and asked him if he was doing that.. he said yes and i asked him how long.. we talked about it for a while.. i asked him if he really wanted to throw his life away on doin somthing stupid like that.. his is now quit drinking and comes to church with me and young life he gave up achool for God.. so maybe you just need to talk to your friend and just tell her you are there for her if she needs you.. stay by her side all the way... and if it gets to crazy get more help

it depends on what the drug is. marijuana has no risks, so if that is what she is doing, then let her be. but if it really bothers you, then talk to her. just say "we need to talk" first ASK her if she is really doing drugs. we all know how the rumor system works. then go from there. tell her how you feel, and do resarch on the drug, then bring this to her, and let her know what she's getting into. if she is doing other drugs, like cocaine or heroine or shrooms or something like that, get her some help. she is your friend, and and why would you let her hanging in a time when she REALLY needs your help? TALK TO YOUR FRIEND!!!!

your welcome im happy to helo
