My best friend needs help, and I need help getting her help!?

Question by a.kranz: My best friend needs help, and I need help getting her help!?
I know my best friend has a cocaine problem. I DO NOT like the fact that she does it. She is in complete denial. She thinks I don’t know when she’s on it, unless she actually admits it once and a while. (I’m not stupid, I can always tell when she’s coked up.) Unfortunately she is a habitual liar to her husband and family. However I know there is no other person in this world that she trusts other than myself (Believe me, I know things no one else would or could ever know, we are like sisters) She has 2 small children at home and an unsupportive husband who knows about the addiction but is going about “trying to help her” the wrong way. I’m worried that she’s gotten to far into the stuff. I want her to get help but I don’t know how to get her help. What can you do when a person is over the age of 18 and you can’t force them to rehab? She won’t go willingly because she doesn’t think she has a problem. She cries wolf a lot about suicide, but I’m really scared this time! Please Help!!!!!
SERIOUS ANSWERS PEOPLE!
She’s my best friend and has been for a while so its my duty to help her if no one else will!
