Is Intervention Treatment for Drugs and Alcohol?
Intervention isn't a form a treatment for the addiction to drugs and alcohol. However, the goal of intervention is to help people admit themselves into a treatment center for their dependency.
If you have a friend or family member who is addicted to substances and refuse to get help, you may consider staging an intervention for them. Typically, substance abusers will avoid treatment because they don't believe they have a problem, they aren't ready to quit, or they may be afraid of the withdrawal symptoms if they do quit.
An intervention is a gathering of friends and loved ones who attempt to sway the substance abuser to enter a treatment facility. The participants should be composed of people who have influence over the substance abuser.
It is also recommended to have an interventionist lead the intervention. An interventionist is an addiction specialist who facilitates interventions. The interventionist also works with the participants in advance to prepare and rehearse for the intervention.
