The unfortunate truth is that most addicts aren't ready to receive help yet. It's not because they don't want to stop taking drugs (because they do), it's just because they are so caught in the trap of addiction that they cannot make any rational decisions and are afraid to confront life. The only thing that makes them feel better in their mind is to continue taking drugs.

There is a harmful line that has been accepted as sort of a falsified universal truth that says an addict has to reach bottom before he or she can be helped. Well, bottom for most people is losing their family, all of their possessions, their health, their freedom and even their life. Common sense asks, "Why would you wait until someone gets locked up for a long time to try to help them?" Unfortunately, there are really only three things that happen to a drug addicted person in the long run - they stop using, or they go to prison or they eventually die from it.

We are firm believers that you have the power and ability to bring that bottom up to the addict so he or she doesn't have to fall any further, lose any more, or cause any more harm. As you'll read below, there are several ways to make this happen. The fact of the matter is that the wrong thing to do is nothing.

Drug interventions can come in many forms. Some happen to be more successful depending on the individual, and it may be necessary to use several types before someone finally agrees to get help.

One very common form is the family intervention. This is where one or more family members simply talk to the addicted person and convince them to go and get help. It may sound over simplified, but it doesn't have to be a complex family gethering to be effective. In many cases, we've found that nobody from the family has insisted that the person get help, but instead have 'enabled' the person in some manner or another. When simply talking about it isn't enough, then starting to apply pressure is necessary. This pressure can come in the form of no further financial assistance or place to live or car to drive. It could also mean loss of communication with other family members, including children, until he or she agrees to get help.

If a family intervention doesn't work, or if the family would like assistance, there are very successful professional interventionists that work with specific programs. These professionals are experts at communicating with addicted individuals and at getting their agreement to go to a drug rehabilitation center. The cost for a professional intervention can often range between $1,500 and $7,500 plus expenses. We can help find professionals that are very effectrive that are in the lower end of that range if you are searching for someone to assist you.

Another form of intervention can be a legal one. This is where law enforcement or the judicial system is used to your advantage to get the person to go to treatment, with the other option being much stiffer consequences. While some people say that people forced into treatment can't get well, that is definitely not always the case, since most addicts require a form of intervention. Being sentenced to a long-term facility, especially one with a good success rate, allows ample time to work with professionals to get their lives turned around and to break the old habits and routines that led them to continued drug use and addiction.
