I saw this at her apartment when she was gone.Now she is very moody and snaps at you, cries a lot and never comes around like she did.She is also loosing weight. Never has money and had to move to a one room apt. to pay her rent recently.She lies a lot and is always clinging to this new b.friend.How do I approach her and does someone addicted to crack need a treatment center to get off of it?
