this has been a ongoing problem. Its hard to know what addiction is until you see somebody you care about going through it. I finally got his mom to help me and we took him to a crisis center last night. This whole situation has took a tole on me mentally physically and emontionally.. i live in canton ohio.. and i was wondering if there was any groups that i could go to and talk to somebody? like a group for friends and familys of addicts.. PLEASE HELP!

Sorry to hear about your friend, but asking for help for youself–definitely asking the right question!! Al-anon is especially for friends and families of alcoholics/addicts. I went for a few years and was really helpful. al-anon is worldwide and there should be a few in your area. Hope it helps you.
