my guess your friend is getting worse- i feel this -i am an addict and am on this forum to help me keep my sanity and to stay sober- you may not be able to do anything. once a person is on a path it is almost impossible to stop them -

You may not be able to stop her without losing a friend, but the most important issue is that she just stop.  I think you should tell her parents. Someday she will thank you for it.  I had a friend once who was being physically abused by her husband and she begged me not to tell anyone, but I was afraid for her life and decided I would rather her still be alive even if we were not friends anymore. So I told her parents and they were able to convince her to leave her husband and move in with them for a while to get her life in order.  Well, my friend came to me one day and thanked me for what I did.  That is what you have to do now, put your friend's life ahead of everything else and do the right thing.
