How can drug intervention help an addict?

What happens in an intervention and how does this affect the addict? I’ve been hearing about this, but I don’t really know how it goes.

What is the point of that Intervention TV show?

I watched the TV show Intervention for the first time last night, and I can’t help but wonder why it’s even a show in the first place! Last night, Christi was the “star” of the show. She was heavily into meth and alcohol. It was unbelievable seeing somebody like that. She lost her car and her job due to her abuse. She worked as a stripper and lived in a horrible, nasty apartment. Very serious addiction. The family was weak with rules, and all of them disgusted me in the way they acted. Anyway, Christi went to rehab only to leave after 30 days. She then went to jail and served 90 days. What happened after jail you ask? The text lines at the end of the show said she went back to doing meth and alcohol 6 weeks afterwards! It didn’t say anything about continued help or support from her family! So what the heck was the point of the show!?! Nobody improved and the show didn’t prove anything positive! What an excuse just for entertainment.

Two questions about A&E’s Intervention?

First, do you think that Gail Vaz-Oxlade would make a good interventionist if someone would recommend her to the show? In case you don’t know who she is, she is the host of a syndicated show called “Til Debt Do Us Part” (which can be seen on the Slice Channel, and also my local Global station in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada before the Canadian episode of Young and the Restless.) She does a really good job of getting couples in financial and relationship crisis out of their troubles by making them perform tasks that she decides. If they complete all her tasks, they get up to $5000 to help pay off their debt. I think that if someone – probably a “success story” from her show – were to recommend her to the A&E show “Intervention,” she would be a great help for anyone who is coping with an addiction to gambling or shopping.

Second question, in all these addictions to alcohol and drugs, do you think there should be a “documentary” episode where the subject is addicted to sex? I don’t think I’ve seen an episode like it

She Needs An Intervention?

I have a friend that is addicted to perscription pills. She has recently found a connection that allows her to obtain methadone. Along with taking the pills she also drinks heavly and uses marijuanna. Its so hard to watch her destroy her self.
I have tried to help her, but she has pushed me away. I told her a week ago that i love and care for her very much, and that i donot want to see her hurt herself anylonger. She has since stopped talking to me or anyone who tries to help her. She only allows people around her that contribute to her addiction.
how can i helper if she doesnt want the help??????? Im trying to be there for her but, she no longer wants me around.
