Stop a Drug Addict From Leaving Home?
Question by Blaire: Stop a drug addict from leaving home?
I am 14 years old and my brother will be 16 next month.
He is addicted to drugs and my family has done everything we can to get him to stop but he will not listen.
Everyone thinks about the parents but no one ever thinks about his younger sister. I know, my parents are going through hell at the moment but at least they have each other to talk about it! I have no one! I love my friends but I feel like they would judge me and my family.
Anyway, my parents have said if he doesnt get clean (and they will help him) by the time he has finished his exams then they will buy him a flat and he has to move out.
I love him so much and I cant stand the thought of him leaving us and never seeing him again, anything could happen to him.
I feel helpless because me and him and not close, we never talk, we ignore each other.
Is there anything I can do? I need help.
Please
Thank you so much if you read all that I need any advice I can get.
He used to just do weed but he has moved on to harder drugs, such as ketamine and MDMA.

What drugs are he doing? If he using weed then you and your parents are REALLY over reacting because you guys read what the government has to say about weed even though there all lies.

Do not let your parents kick him out. If he moves he will get much worse.
start talking to him and don’t ignore. Don’t give up on him.
