Hello,

I am so sorry to hear what you are going through. I am going through the exact same with my brother who is not willing to follow through with any help or stick to anything. My brother is in a lot o debt too which we have been paying and now drug dealers are threatening us. My advice would be run he won’t change anytime soon I know you love him but you need to put yourself first and shouldn’t let someone treat you like that. Unless he is willing to get help then there’s no point in you being there for him and ruining your own life as it will only get worse as cocaine is the devil. This is the harsh reality 🙁 we’ve been living this nightmare for almost two years and are no further forward xx

Hello,

My brother is in a similar situation running up thousands of pounds of drug debt for cocaine. Me and my mum and sister have been paying it but physically cannot anymore. My brother lies all the time so we never know the exact amount. It feels like a never ending circle where he keeps getting into debt. He has no money as he has just lost his job as well due to his cocaine use stopping him from being able to hold down a job. We are all out of our depth and it is a constant worry about what these dealers will do if they don’t get their money 🙁 I’ve thought about the police as well but I don’t know if it’s too dangerous informing them:(

Hello,

My brother is a cocaine addict and me and my family do not know what to do anymore. He has lost his job, his girlfriend, his friends and owes so much money on cocaine.

We cannot afford rehab and he is in denial as he recognises that he’s an addict however he is not willing to make any steps to get better. We are having to bribe him to go to CA meetings and even at that he is horrible and tries to manipulate us all. He is vile and nasty and threatens us all the time with suicide.

We really can’t cope anymore and don’t know what the next steps are. We try and tell him that he needs to go to meetings as they will help him and he shuts them down and says they won’t when he has barley even tried!

Really don’t see a way out 🙁

Hello,

I am so sorry to hear that about your sister and your partner. Are you ok?

It is exactly like living in hell and I don’t know what it is going to take for my bother to help himself. When do think our loved ones will!? I hear stories of people who do come out the other end and recover and wonder if that is ever even possible 🙁

I feel better knowing I’m not alone because it does feel lonely feeling like you are the only family going though this when it is everywhere xx

Hi,

My brother is a cocaine addict and myself and my family are really struggling. We have been out of thousands of pounds worth of money paying his debts and it has got to the point where we cannot anymore. He keeps saying he wants to help himself however I don’t believe he is actually trying. I also think he is in deeper than we know with the drug dealers and I am scared for myself and my family. I don’t know what to do anymore as he is so horrible to us all and manipulative and also a compulsive lier.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
