Why Choose an Intervention?
You’ve most likely seen an intervention take place on TV. In many cases it is a serious situation, while in other cases some comedy shows have had entire episodes make fun of interventions. However, a real intervention is a very serious situation. After all, the health and well-being of someone you love is at stake; in fact their life could be on the line.
Interventions (when conducted correctly by a professional) work well partially because of a strength in numbers approach. One-on-one conversations are easy for a person who needs help to ignore, but when several friends, family members or co-workers have taken time out of their busy lives to meet with the addicted individual in a friendly, compassionate, and yet very serious atmosphere, it is much harder for the person to ignore that he or she needs help.
Substance Dependence is an Addiction that Needs Professional Help
In most circumstances, before the intervention is done, we have arranged help in the form of a rehabilitation or treatment facility if the person will agree to get the help he or she needs. Toward the end of an intervention, everyone involved will encourage the individual to seek treatment immediately to stop his or her self-destructive behavior.
Many people often mistake substance abuse problems for a “mid-life crisis” or a way of coping with a stressful situation or life circumstance, but a drug or alcohol problem is a much more serious situation than buying an over-priced sports car.
If the person makes one bad decision while under the influence of the substance they are addicted to, they could harm themselves or others and turn their world upside down in seconds.
