Yes ther are many rehabilitation centers where the drugs addicts are deaddicted, thati smedications are given to stop the drugs. They also treat the with drawl symptoms of the drugs. They give counselling regatrding the stopage of the drugs and also see that they donot get readdicted

certainly it helps as I heard about their work in bringing the life back. choose a good centre near your area so that he should not feel as if he is abandoned. Give moral support.

choose a good and dedicated rehabilation center not the one which makes money.your responsibility will not end by joining him to the rehabilitation center but you have to co operate to the norms so that your child do not revet back to the drugs again

yes i was a drug addict, i use to take marijuana. the rehabiltation center is very good they boost you morale, give mental support, love and affection. so i advice every drug addict who has made the mind to quit drugs, to go for a rehabilitation centre.
