They dont want to go to treatment... it means they dont want help and so then you leave and go to co dependency meetings and learn to save yourself!How do you help someone you love, deal with a crack addiction when they dont want to go to treatment?
Unfortunately, you can't help someone who doesn't want to be helped. It's sad, but true.How do you help someone you love, deal with a crack addiction when they dont want to go to treatment?

tough love turn them in they go to jail or prison and have to do treatment.
They have to hit bottom. The bottom is different for everyone, hopefully the person you love will have a shallow bottom and will seek help soon.
You really can't do anything until this happens.
You can't. They must want to stop themselves. I would just tell them that I wan't nothing more to do with them until they get help and stop.Tough love.Bad situation, no easy way out.
They wont change until they want it. Prayer is the best action, love is the best response. Show them you are there and tell them your heart. They need to see how it affects those they love. No guilt trips though. Prayer is the best thing to do because they need supernatural strength. It starts with them, so pray for God to change their heart.
Addictions are very consuming to the individual. From what I have found addicts who do not want treatment are on a path for destruction. The people I have been around have stolen from loved ones, including me. The most recent person I know stole from his childrens child support checks and was bringing all his addict friends around. It was to the point where a 10 year old was able to tell me about how the adults were using these drugs. Sad right?
You can not help someone who doesn't want your help. The olnly thing you can do is to let them know if they ever decide to seek treatment you will be there for them and then let them go on their addict adventure. I know that it is hard but people are not themselves when they are addicts and they usually end up hurting and using the people around them.
I would say goodbye for now and hope they come to their senses.
i had a best friend who is addicted to speed, meth, whatever other names, and she is a mess.....she lost like three places to live, was on welfare, had three kids, lost her damn good job of like 9 years, switched job to job after that, gave her kids to the dad, moved in with her dealer, says she in love with him, says she so hurt by all of the wrong in her life caused by this drug, and i tried to help.....but she was bringing me down, i dont do drugs-any of them, but she would make me drive her places hang out with her and i would put off doing things in my life for her just to know she was still on the drugs.....i had two children that i dont want involved in her and his drama filled lifestyle so i distanced myself, i help her when i can but never give her money, if she wants something i go get it for her.....we were going to put her in a program but she said she would miss her dealer too much so i gave up....like the others say if they dont want the help, they wont appreciate the treatment. i love my friend and it hurts to see her that way and i just am flat out blunt when i talk to her and see her-like eww look at your face its all scarred, she has bruises from him grabbin on her, i always bring up the kids to snap her out of it but its only when THEY realize, which may be never........its been 5 or so years for her now
';How do you help someone you love, deal with a crack addiction when they dont want to go to treatment?';. sadly you cant they need to help themselves. walk away from this, its not your responsability to look after someone who wont look after themselves.
