my close friend nick has recently ODed on prescription drugs. he first told me that he thought it would help his headache if he took a few extra, but that was before i found out he did it on purpose. usually nick is full of energy sure, but he also has an addiction to burning his body and also cutting gashes into his palms. as i am a cutter, yes i admit.. but it just makes me upset knowing nick ruins his beautiful body and has trouble telling me why. i completely respect this, as he doesn’t see his father, and his mother has told him to his face that she no longer wanted him. i’m worried about nick, and i’m not ready to lose him. please will someone help me?
thank you, morgan.

I think, that you should get to talk to nick and find out how many times he burns and cut and takes drugs or drinks and see what the fuck is making him do this, dig deep. im sure itll help. u needa really try anf figure out what is up. and make him find a different outlet or something or talk to him a lot and comfort him and make him not be so sad and destruct his body. pce. be strong bby. love jess <3 (:
ah 😛 haha thank you jess, i’ve tried. but i think he’s passed out or something, he won’t answer phone calls nor texts. i’ll try and hold it together until later, and hopefully i’ll get something back. i hope everything’s okay, i really do. thanks for your advice hun<3.
OH UR WELCOME. i hope nick is ok… ): lets keep on texting him. luck again!! jezz <3
(:
😀
i’ll try and not lose it, :p well thanks so much for the support.
I am in a situation much like that- my friend cuts, drinks, pops pills… and I am a cutter myself, so I can’t tell him to stop because that would make me a hypocrite. I wish both you and your friend the best of luck.
ty. and that’s exactly what i say to myself. i want myself to tell him not to do it, but in reality.. i can’t control his life. i can’t make decisions for him. if it’s what he wants to do.. it’s what he wants to do. i wish it wasn’t his first choice, but it is.
i agree with color, its really not very effective to try to get someone to get clean (stop cutting, burning, etc.) if you arent yourself. if you want to help him best morgan i suggest you stop cutting too. never let people take extra perscription drugs, they are dosed that way for a reason. i hope he pulls through, and if he does you need to be there for him as his friend. dont be judgemental, just supportive. work on convincing him not to cut, help him find reasons to enjoy life. it could help you too. im also a masochist, i bite myself, and i know its really really hard to stop but im 2 weeks clean and counting…. and it really helps to have supportive friends like you. the best thing you can do for him is just be there.
