    Default Please help, friend is addicted to opiates, need advice on treatment

    He is a great guy, loves his family and would do anything for them plus give you the shirt off his back. I mean he and I used to push old peoples carts on the green when they were out of juice, basically he is a stand up guy and I love em' to death, but I DON'T WANT HIM TO DIE. He was involved in a horrific industrial accident where he was electricuted by 480 volts two phase, so 240 grounded and hit him. He has seven destroyed nerves in his hand, but I am worried that his is overboard, vicodin, lortab and now oxycotin/mscotin. Please any advice would help. Please remember, he has never touched a street drug and many of you know him and I am sure he has helped a few or more of the people on this site out. I am at a lose. Robi I love my boy with all my heart and I want to get him help and "just rehab" is so clechea< spelling. I know he can quit, he is such a ****ing strong person, he has been through mad **** in his life and always no matter what is optimistic for everyone else. Until now he has always put friends family and stranger before himself, he is trying to detox himself and man it is ****ing horrible, this man has been to war, was a captain in my fighter squadrin in the 192nd. Please help me.

    As cliche'd as it may sound; People can't be helped until they want it for themselves.
