So I have had this family friend who is best friends with my sister, they have been friends since they were in middle school years and years ago. He had been snorting cocaine occasionally for years but didn't do it every single day to where it affected his daily life, he mainly smoked everyday for the most part and has not had any addictions before besides that. I myself have never seen him do cocaine before nor have I ever done cocaine because it is one of the scariest molecules to me.
A few months ago he started smoking Crack Cocaine, at first nobody noticed but after a couple weeks or so of indulging it began to affect him externally. He was in a full blown cocaine addiction, he wouldn't make food, he wouldn't take care of himself, and he wouldn't leave his house unless he needed cigarettes. Though he never got to the point of being homeless, it was still clear that he was suffering from a full blown Cocaine addiction.
About two months ago he ended up turning himself into the police because he had a warrant, he has been in jail for about a month, and has now been in inpatient so he is now clean. He wants to go to a halfway house to be able to continue his sobriety and is doing that through the inpatient system.
What are his chances of staying clean if the only addiction he had was cocaine? I have heard from plenty of people before that used to be addicted to Cocaine and end up getting their act together after a while.
What advice would you give to him about staying clean, this question is more for people who have been down this path before.
Could Salvia or a very strong Mushroom trip be able to help him in a positive way for his sobriety?
Are there any particular medications that may help with normalizing his brain?

I will be very clear and thorough on this subject, there is No Rehab for crack cocaine, I am not new to this subject (50 yrs old) My closest friends though the 1980s fell down this path and nearly 20 of them through the years have gone back over and over again losing everything/everyone who cared for them. Unlike heroin where a physical illness follows WD, crack cravings are in there head, and its fulfilling an emptiness inside from a personal issue, its not a recreational drug or even social where you have friends and party, its a lonely mans drug usually used alone or with a person who scores it for you or helps obtain it by whoring themselves for you/it. There is no way to get better unless you find whats missing in there life and fix that, then the desire to escape goes away. Crack heads are almost always the nicest people that would do anything for you when straight, usually the best salesman, they are so convincing to get what they need that you fall into the trap over and over again and you become a victim as opposed to the person who helped them, you end up needing the help, they are relentless to get more, a heroin addict will try and likely succeed in getting your money/help but after a while youll see its just the drug because they will get physically ill when out, but a crackhead never gets sick, he will be desperate and there is no end to his/her persuit of the drug, rob steal sex acts violence, straight man sucking cock for more, housewives getting gang fucked in public for more, sex acts with animals, they do not care , they just want more, all morals/dignity is gone, theres no limit to get more when they are high!, atleast at some point the Heroin addict will get sick/give up hope, the crackhead is relentless and very convincing, would beat his mother for another hit! so heed my words, zero trust especially when they are high and fiending for more, the desire to get high is bad enough, but once high there is no stopping them from continuing, nothing/no one will take away that craving and nothing worth money/drugs is off limits to them, they will steal there grandmothers walker and trade her home for just another hit!!! stay clear of them cut ties and let them solve it themselves, its not worth the losses youll be forced to live with.
