well he could be turning to drugs and alcohol from stress...you could sit down with him and tell him that you are here for him and that hes scaring you...something like that

He might be turning to that because he might be depressed.. not exactly the best way to solve it but some people turn to that.. like it comforts them or something. I would talk to him about telling him you care about him and point out all the bad things about that-trix (plz rate) happy new years

One of the best things you can do is talk to him and tell him how you feel. Maybe if he knew that one of his good friends cared so much about him, then he would stop.

Hope I helped,
Kits

People sometimes go to drugs and drinking as a escape to whats going on in the real world. maybe you could just be there for him, just keep being the good friend you have been to him. there's nothing much you can do since you cant make him stop. hope i helped.

Well it could be because of teasing but it also could be because of a probablem in his own house maybe someone died or he is getting hit by his parents. You should talk to him and show Him that that is not the best way. Tell him that he could talk to you if there is something wrong. He really needs help and you should do something

Dear Friends 'til the end,

You really need to talk to your friend. He could kill himself if he drinks too much alcohol. If he can change the way he acts, them tell him to change so people wont say anything. You can help him by whenever you hear someone teasing him, you can go and tell them off. If this problem progresses, you should try to get him some help. If hes a real friend, he'll understand. Hope i helped!

He probably does drugs and drinks a lot because he's depressed and it makes him forget about all his problems. *Everybodiiez_Fool*

just because noone teases him doesnt mean that he isnt sad... maybe something is going on at home or with his close friends... maybe he just feels like he needs freedom. sit down and talk with him and let him know that you are there for him if he needs anything hope I helped ♥ Lexi

yeah that could be the reason. How long has it been? If its just started recently..he might stop. maybe he just wanted to let it out..(although its not the best way to) and maybe hes done now. You could talk to him and tell him drinking and drugs arent worth it..and those dumb kids who tease him shouldnt drive him to that. tell him hes too good for that stuff..and hes has a bright future ahead. Hang out with him sometime..show him that stuff like hanging out ..going to the movies...is better than sitting around driking and smoking
