I know that tftv isnt the best place for this, but i would prefer somewhere thats a little more personal, and has a lot of my peers for this discussion. I hope I dont catch any flak for this, but im really worried about my friend matt. hes sort of a close internet friend, in that he hangs out with a lot of my real life friends on line. he and i get along pretty well. we play a lot of csgo together and he snipes on my highlander team. but he has a bit of a substance abuse problem, specifically with prescription drugs. it was never a big problem, maybe wed get occasionally pissed at him because he took sleeping pills before a match, or something like that. its important to note that he has chronic depression, but hes always a fun guy in teamspeak. cracks jokes and such, and we all have fun.
But last night he had a schizophrenia level breakdown. started seeing shit, people, and it was pretty awful to have to listen to, and probably pretty rough for him. he said he was completely sober, which worries me. he claims to not be suicidal, but when i get messages like
4:13 AM - [omitted]: 150mg of xanex 300mg if prozac 300mg of ambien 1.5 grams of vyvanse down le shoot
4:13 AM - [omitted]: See you in hell
it really starts to worry me. and then earlier today, when i found out he was alright, he starts going on drugs.com to see which ones he shouldnt take together, specifially so he can. And the entire time i know i cant do anything. ive been telling him that he shouldnt do this stuff, and that i dont want him to die, but he seems like hes having fun and thats what worries me the most. i dont know what i expect to get out of this thread, because it doesnt seem like he can be stopped, but i just wanted to get this off my chest. maybe some suggestions would be nice.
sorry for ranting
