Why would you invest a lot of emotional resources into a situation where you have little to no control over the person's life?
Isn't that just an invitation to pain?
I mean if you have the extra cash, send him to rehab.
If he is a recreational user, its on him to stop. If he is an addict, he is probbaly going to need meds to stop, because he won't like the pain. Most people fear and hate pain.
I mean what kind of support can you possibly offer when its basically up to him?

i agree. take it from someone who knows. do not involve yourself with him. it will do you no good and it will do him no good. support him in his addiction? is he serious? say no. i went out with a guy who was an addict. not a good idea. if the addict is not willing to quit then he is of no benefit to you. why are you there if he doesnt want treatment? YOU deserve better than that. tell him when he wants help then he can have your support. other than that, you are wasting your time.
