alcohol Drug Intervention

Why do people with addictions have a choice of treatment?

I watch Intervention on TV, and it amazes me that people with drug and alcohol problems are given the choice to go to rehab…..Obviously these people are not in their right mind…..so why do they get the choice? I am not saying food addictions or smoking should lead to your rights being taken away, but drugs and alcohol alter a persons mind to the point where I believe they can not be considered competent to make choices.

Because a person needs to want the help. Also the beds that are available don’t meet the demand. Programs want to take those that want to be there to be successful rather than give a bed away to a person who is coerced, and likely to break rules, and wreak havoc by sneaking in contraband, and its negative to those who want the help that are there. You need to change people places and things.

In my state, DE there are 200 beds for drug/alcohol, the need for beds is 4000.

You are a model. Teens are watching you and how you handle crisis situations in your life. alcohol drug intervention They look at your problem solving skills and often times use them as their own. So if you solve your problems with alcohol, they may do the same.
