sounds like they will probably end up in jail eventually.

but yeah they have to want to change their life.

It sounds like they are unhappy, so they have to change the part of their life making them miserable and want to use, in order to get and stay clean.

People who just agree to go to a rehab, come home, and go back to their same shitty life, usually fall.

I recommend a major life change. Moving, back to school, job change, break up a relationship, get rid of your loser friends... things like that. You can't just quit, you have to change your entire world for the better.
