Hi all,
I don't know whether this is the right place to ask for advice, or whether there is even any advice to be given.
Basically my oldest and dearest friend (we've known each other since being 1!) has always lived life on the edge a bit. Our friendship group always drank alot and experimented with recreational drugs.
Now we're all 30 most have settled down, got married and had kids etc. My friend however has become worse and worse, and is now regularly smoking crack and heroin.
She is a very stubborn person and would never admit she has a problem (she says she is in control and knows what she's doing), and assures me she is not addicted and that it is no different from drinking alcohol.
I am now pregnant with my first child and would have always imagined her being a big part of the pregnancy and my child's life, possibly godmother. Now though I just don't know how that could possibly be.
I worry about her day and night and when I voice my concerns she just backs off away from me.
I don't really know what the solution is if she doesn't see how detrimental her behaviour is to her life?? Sorry this is a bit ranty, but don't know how to (or if I can) make her see how dangerous it is...help!!
