When is it time to do an intervention?

 If you have been told to wait until your loved one hits "bottom" and is ready for help, you may be making a bad decision. By the time it is apparent that a person has a problem with drugs or alcohol they have already begun to damage themselves physically, their personal reputation, and their family relationships. Addiction is a progressive illness and the damages and consequences only increase as time passes.

What are the dangers of waiting for them to hit bottom?

Many who have contacted us for intervention have already waited to long. Their loved ones have lost their jobs, spouses have left them and children have suffered from the loss of a parent that although present is emotionally unavailable or worse. Many more have even more serious issues; arrests for dui and possesion, felony convictions, near death experiences from accidental overdose and more.

Will an intervention work for your loved one?

We often hear from the families we work with "You will never convince them to go to treatment". They say this because they have tried unsuccessfully to get the person the help they need.. Over 95% of interventions done by professional interventionists are successful and result in the addicted person going to treatment. Why? Because the majority of good interventionist are former addicts and alcoholics. They understand what the addict is experiencing having been there themselves. They know that an addicted person is not having fun anymore, they are in fact ashamed of thier situation and the fact that they cant stop. They also know that there is a way out and can relate that to the addict or alcoholic in a manner that is real to them.
