One of my bestest friends is hooked on dilaudids(hydromorphone) and its starting to really bad...he's not a mainliner, just sniffs them but he's sniffing like 30-42 mg's a day.Anyways, i'm the only one who can go to the dealer to get them for him and now i'm thinking about not gettin them for him anymore...i don't want him to fuck his life up because of the shit(i've seen it happen to a couple old buddys of mine).I know without them he'll get sick and probably hate me for not getting them for him...i'm just trying to save his life though. So do you think i'd be a better friend to keep getting them for him or would i be a better friend if i ended his supply and tried to talk him into getting detox?

Tell him why you're ending his supply, if you do.
I don't know about immediately putting him in detox.
When he wakes up and feels like he can't move 'cuz it hurts too much, punch him in the stomach and say "That's what you get!"

Well if you are a friend you will definately stop supplying him. He will hate you for a while, but if your friendship is stong, he will thank you in the end.

Detox works.. To cleanse the system anyways. If you're lucky they will hook you up with some good meds. I went to a detox after being very addicted to heroin. They gave me an opiate that dissolved under the tongue - then tapered off. I've been clean since

how long has he had a steady supply for / how long has he been addicted?
i view my friends in almost the same regard as my brothers. if my brother were to be addicted on a damaging substance like that, i would be damned sure not to continue his supply. you dont have to be truthful in this case, just tell him your supplier isnt supplying anymore, cuz the cops are hot on his ass.

I still owe lots of people money. I was really in bad shape in the past. Being severely addicted to heroin and crack.. borrowing money, losing trust, losing friends, wandering the ghetto bumming cash to get my next fix. I wasn't like myself. I'd spend all day making sure I had my daily H fix and that i still had enough cash left over to go buy some rocks on the corner. Good thing I have straightened my life up and regained most of the trust I lost. Life can slip or degrade down into that place very quickly if you aren't careful. Only the addict can stop it from happening. You can talk to your friend but ultimately it will be up to him whether he wants to be clean of opiates or not.
