Im assuming you are wanting to help your mate quit these drugs since your here.
Depending on his dependence on his drug he may need medical help during withdrawls. The side effects of cold turkey on high amount users are brutal and can include death. Im not a Dr , Get him to one. That call is between you and he.
The vast majority of addicts ( my opinion ) quit on thier own. Its sickening . Its hard but can be done.
There are sticky note threads on this board. one says narcotics anonymous links. Use that to start finding a meeting in your area. That may be the most important first step. Get him to a meeting fast.
I was just thinking. trying to keep it simple. Does your mate want to quit drugs ?
Its nice of you tostep up for him. best of luck to you.
Im an addict named anthony

When we hit our bottom and realize we have no power over our drugs use and we're sick and tired of being ruled by drugs and our lives are shambles, that is the point where we find a place of surrender and become willing to do whatever is nessecary to get and stay clean.
get to some meetings if you have them in your area, get the NA book and start reading but above all stop using keep posting here letting us know more about yourself and you situation so we might help mate
