My best friend is a dual citizen from Canada and lives with his mom, sister, stepdad and stepbrothers here in the US. His stepdad is very abusive and my friend (we’ll call him A), can’t do much about it because they can’t leave his stepdad- need the money, and if he leaves his house, his mom will get abused more. A also has lots of trauma as well as being diagnosed with ptsd, 3 different anxieties, bipolar, a few eating disorders (i think arfid) and I don’t know what else. Every night he stays up for hours with racing thoughts and almost delusion about why his life is like this and his past trauma and pain. He is addicted to drugs- usually xans. It’s an endless cycle and he can’t get any help. During the day he’s okay but he can’t even do schoolwork anymore. They don’t have health insurance because obama care fucked them over. His mom knows everything but they can’t do anything due to As step dad. And he is now staying with my family a few nights a week but I can’t tell my mom the extent or else legal shit might get involved. We are both 17 I forgot to mention. The cycle is endless and exhausting and I just don’t know what to do. I’m afraid I’ll lose him. Please please help this is an emergency. As of right now I’m in the basement with him at 2:30 while he is high. I think I just need to get him to see 18 years so he can be sober and go live his life. Idek anymore. Please please help me.
