You opened the post by saying there is no good way to help someone addicted to drugs. I love everyone regardless so sure I have loved those addicted to drugs. First you need to expand your worldview quite a bit. A giant reality check on your part would be a good way to start, You may just find out that your an addict also. Addictions run deep in our society and fall under 2 main categories, accepted and unaccepted. Our society for example accepts sugar addictions. This addiction is incredibly harmful, it damages relationships, stunts the growth of kids, raises health insurance costs, makes people miserable, is linked to many diseases, can reduce mobility, can result in obesity, and so on. All this damage and yet our society doesn’t care at all, yet they are quick to attack the unaccepted addictions. Smoking cigs for example. Everyone is quick to attack that because it’s known to cause problems. Sugar is known to cause problems but because a small amount is ok in a diet the majority accept and practice often it’s abuse. These are just a few examples but addictions often take other forms. Music for example. I’ve heard many say they can’t live without music. They must have music on, some even when they are sleeping. My guess is it’s because if the music stops they have to actually face themselves and the scary silence that demands answers. So as Christ said, first deal with the log in your own eye before you can see clearly to remove the speck from your brothers eye. 

Drugs or addictions of any kind can be “cured” but for more powerful addictions more dramatic measures are often a necessity. Our society makes it difficult because the value of a person is often defined by the amount of money they make and the status symbols they own. I’ve seen incredibly gifted talented people cast by the wayside because what they bring to the table isn’t valued. A devalued person, particularly a talented one typically becomes depressed and apathetic. Why bother when the cards are stacked against you and what your good at isn’t valued? On the other end of the spectrum I’ve seen these same people placed in a setting where they had value again and it changed who they were seemingly overnight. Drug addicts as well as other addicts are a symptom of a larger problem. Just like fever is a symptom of the flu. If we address the fundamental issues that are destroying all of our society then we will see a shift and far less drug addicts. The fundamental issues are up to each individual. The real question here is are you willing to do the right thing or do you want to continue to blame all those around you for your problems? Don’t like that we use slave labor to create many of our goods? Do you still buy those goods? Don’t like that many here are in poor health. Do you continue to eat the same processed foods sold in nearly every store and restaurant? Unhappy with the fact that we are destroying our natural resources at an alarming rate? Are you making moves to obtain what you actually need vs excess? Are you making moves to live a more natural sustainable life? Are you building water catchments and finding ways to generate any electric you might need? Do you not like all the deaths, wrecks, and high insurance rates that drivers on cell phones have caused? Do you talk on your cell while you drive? Don’t like BP or other big oil companies due to the wars and spills? Do you still buy gas? Do you like violence, lying, stealing, cheating, and devaluing of human life? Do you watch nearly any tv show? Most promote and teach all these things. Yes we are in a changing world, which way do you want to change it?  Do you support all the things you say your against? Most do, some directly, some indirectly. Fix your side of things and quit waiting for everyone else to do it first or do it for you. Blunt words but lets get real. A lot of people tend to think we are so much better than the drug addicts but are we really? I’m working on a solution to this and many other issues, are you doing the same or simply saying there isn’t any good ways to address it? Do you want people to feel sorry for you because you choose to love a drug addict? I’ve got some real solutions that i’m working on for addicts of every kind, Solutions that will treat the cause of the problem rather than the symptoms. Hope you find this comment eye opening. True love does what’s in the best interest of all all the time.
