Question

Drug abuse

Asked for Male, 22 Years

My son is studying in final year of designing course and is unfortunately under influence of drugs. I tried to counsel, confront him but he keeps on denying. But i can see it clearly that he cannot come out of it. Some of his friends also confirmed that he is into it. They also tried to speak to him. Pls advice a treatment or doctor as i have to get him out of this.
