Interventions:
In the effort to help as many as possible …
Please note that the intervention steps below are only meant to be used as guidelines.
It is advised that anyone who wishes to perform an intervention hires a professional
interventionist or seeks help from someone who has experience with this complicated
process.
Planning An Intervention
1. Take Control Of Your Fear!
An intervention is a positive confrontation, not a fight with your loved one. The goal is
to get him help by getting him to agree to go into a treatment program. Always remind
yourself of the following when you become afraid of the intervention process:
If you prolong doing an intervention to help your loved one, remember that the addiction
will only get increasingly worse! The sooner you get this show on the road, the less
chance there is the addict will harm himself or someone else. Moreover, the longer you
wait to help him, the less chance there may be for a recovery and the tougher the
intervention process may become!
If you think perhaps someone else is better suited for the intervention, remember that
you may have a better understanding of addiction, especially since you are doing
research on the internet. Also, fear has most likely stopped others who have noticed
the destructive behavior from approaching you about doing something to help your
loved one. If you truly love the person who needs your help and you believe he loves
you, you may possess the needed motivation and leverage to organize an effective
intervention.
If you are afraid about planning something behind the addict's back, remember that the
purpose of the intervention is to put all your cards out on the table. It is difficult do this
without the intervention process! A drug intervention allows you to control the time and
place to positively confront an addict, with the right people present to support you.
While there is a chance that the addict may feel tricked by some of the deceit you will
have to engage in prior to the intervention, this is not necessarily a giant obstacle if
everything has been arranged in advance.
