Help...? My world... kind of got shattered... a friend told me that a close friend of mine is addicted to ecstasy.
You guys know me. I'm innocent. I'm an idealist... I really really really hope it isn't true... but what do I do? He's a good friend of mine, he ditched a lot of classes last year, but this year he hasn't been ditching, he's been coming to me for help with homework, talking to me quite a bit... and I really don't know what to think v.v;;
Help...

first id make sure it wasnt just gossip, if its true, i would anonymously turn him in, he might change his mind about taking it if he knows theres consequences to his behavior like spending time in jail or rehab

The only way to know for sure is to ask him yourself. Just find a way to do it that doesn't make it seem like you are judging him.

If you can genuinely help them by helping them with their homework that is great. If you are merely giving them the solutions, then that is worthless. Whenever dealing with an addict of any variety, they have to be the ones that seek out help.

Ecstasy is not an addictive drug, he may well like the way it feels but if he wants to come off it he will, its not a drug that pulls you back physically

I have quite a few friends on drugs, although im not. I often wonder what i could do to get them off, but drugs are stronger than people. You have to accept the fact that you cant make decisions for your friends. All you can do is show them that you are there for them, and hope they get better...

Ecstasy isn't an addictive drug...If he's not been ditching classes,and paying more attention to the quality of the homework he submits,then it sounds like its just the teenage rumourmill looking for a bit of drama to get worked up over..

Life is just full of little gems like this, isn't it? Don't try to take this all on yourself though...maybe he needs an intervention, but you probably can't get him off that **** by yourself.

You should try to get it out of him in a way or another. Talk to him about it and see if thats really true. He'll be alright dont worry..

I think you should talk to each other. It may not be true. It may be true. Either way there's not much you can do other than be a friend. It may just be he enjoys it at parties and someone else considers this addiction. I was taking the stuff every day for a while so I think I was probably addicted, but not on the level I was addicted to nicotine.
