    Yes talk to him about getting help otherwise it will not only ruin his life but yours in the future also . Life with a drug addict is not FUN .....

    Sunny is right, he needs to seek medical attention ASAP. If he is still a minor, then his parents need to know. If he puts up a fight, then honestly the best thing you can do is walk away.

    And I'll be the first to not agree with Sunny.

    If he's your boyfriend and you love him, then I think you should stay by his side. Someday he'll be thankfull. And he'll never be able to pay you back for what you did for him.

    You should just tell the truth and scream it in his ear. He'll get mad, and probably kick you out the door. But the next day you just pound on his door again and scream it even louder so even the deaf will hear you scream.

    The truth can be very painfull. But he has to realize that he's got a serious problem.

    And if when he realized you can go and get some pro. help.

    And I'm the second one not agree with Sunny... but I don't completly agree with Mona either.

    first off, how serious is the drug? how serious is his addiction? is he a show off drug addict or what type? all these questions should be answered in order to know the correct solution...

    but parents telling them will only cuase more problems then needed, and to tell him to go to rehab he'll probably just become more violent then we want him to be....

    Now, you have to understand what type of drug Meth is... i'm sorry i'm unfamiler with that drug... but the more serious the drug is the worse the side effects are and the more strain you'll put on yourself... even if you love someone, I'll only encourage you to be a push-over if he's a family member, other than that, it's not worth it.

    Now: you'll ask me why it's not worth it? becuase the more violent the side effects are the more you're going to get harmed, and it might reach physical state were he'll literaly use physical violence...

    then you have what type he is? believe it or not, some are actually drug users who were start as they're showing off they can take it and stop it whenever they want, which is the saddest of all cases, now, in that case, it's best to adress the manner cleverly and deciptively... what i mean by deciptivly is indirectly trying to make him "show-off" that he has stopped it, that'll help him...

    Now, you must adress to the root of the problem of why he began it... you might need pro help in it... I'm not that familer with most things...

    In the end... you must answer the questions before rushing in to the rescue... the only case you'll rush in for the escue is a family member or your fincee/husband and that's it.... becuase believe it or not, and take that from someone who seen it happen a kazillion time... I've seen people sacrificing a lot of things to be there with their loved ones and at the first chance of betrayal, their loved ones betray them... only family members and fiancee/husband are not prone to betray you (but for every rule there is an exception)

    Hope this helps

    like Sunny, I think you should walk away. Take it from someone who has been there. Don't stay because you love him, Leave because you do. It may just be the wake up call he needs. Don't think I'm being harsh, but to stay with him would be enabling him to continue. Just tell him that you love him and that you refuse to stand by and watch him die.

    This is not a discussion... but mere stating opinions...

    I think the only two type of people you should no matter the consequences are family and who will be your fiancee... other than that, the others are mere waste of time and effort...

    Meth is a serious drug - I know all are serious but the consequences physcially and mentally of using meth even on a moderated basis are shocking

    www.facesofmeth.com

    Now have a look at that site and let me know how you feel about not seeking professional help.

    It can deteriorate people and personalities, and LIVES so quickly...

    I agree with Sunny. Unless he WANTS help he will just bring you down as well. Been there, done that. You can not make someone change if they don't want to. Most of the people I know LIKE doing the drugs they do..so good luck... Another way to look at this is if he loves you and is aware that this bothers you so much he would be willing to at least work on it, if not, I wouldn't stay with him. If he chooses the drug over you so be it..let him have it. Just my opinion :)

    Tell him it bothers you
    Tell him if he loves you he will repect you and stop
    Tell his parents or someone you trust
    Tell him you love him but he needs to get help.
