I am glad to see this topic being discussed.

First let me start by saying that it is a topic very important to me. I have never done an illegal drug in my life. However, I often visit the graves of close friends who I lost due to either the drugs themselves or the world of crap that seems to always come with them. Yes, I am aware that light use does not always get to be so dramatic. However, sometimes it does.

Also I am an engineer who used to be a counselor. I have a Masters in Counseling and have dealt with this topic on a professional level as well as a personal one.

I am not about to tell everyone how to handle it. This is a messy and a messed up situation to find yourself in.

What I do want to stress to everyone:
No one is ever alone when dealing with drugs.
This includes the user and the one they come to. If you do not know what to do you can ask a counselor (school or otherwise) in confidentiality for guidance. Don't be a hero (it never works). Don't be a Lone Ranger. Make use of the trained professionals that are there for you.

And the hardest lesson sometimes is that you may not be able to help.
