No, I think you're right. I started doing drugs at the same age you did, and it took me a long time to finally quit. I was forced into treatment plenty of times, but it never worked. I think you have to want it in order for it to work. Forcing it on someone might work temporarily, but I think ultimately the person has to want to get sober in order for it to stick. That's why I can't really do much. I can give her cousin the information and hope that she'll take it, but that's really all there is to do. You can't make someone get clean if they don't want to. I hope she'll do something about it, but I kind of don't think she will right now. It's worth a try though.
