'Do you watch the tv show Intervention?'

Loopy from The Big D -

I love watching this show. I feel so sad for the families that are affected by addiction. It is so sad to see that most of the people are teens. Our kids are growing up in a cruel world where drugs are widely used. I am always rooting for the addicts to finish their intervention and stay clean. But, the odds are not good. So so sad!

I've seen a couple of people who were on the show appear on Oprah. I was really moved by some of the courage that these people faced. It was amazing. It's so sad to see some of the innocent kids that get affected by their parents' addiction as well.

That's so funny! I *just* finished watching that show! It was the one about that girl who was a crystal meth addict, and kept laughing at her family while they tried to tell her how her drug abuse was affecting them. So sad. My boyfriend is a recovering meth addict so it was really bothersome for him and said he could see how she could be so 'far off' to do that to her family. Thankfully he has been clean for a long while but i sometimes get nervous. How can you not?

When I am channel flipping I will watch it when I come across it. I like the show. I only wish it was around when my mother was alive.

I first found out about this show when I was struggling with an Oxycontin addiction (and still am), and I also got my parents into it as well. I'm 20 years old and have been an addict since I was about 17-18 years old, and this show moved me to the point of checking myself into treatment. It has been over a year since I was in treatment, and I'm amazed to see how well most of these people do while combating their addictions. While opiates are so incredibly difficult to kick, the support from my family (thanks to this show) has been enough to keep me clean for over a year now. I urge anyone with a drug/alcohol problem to watch this show and actually WATCH. Absorb what the interventionists have to say.

I MISSED THE SHOW AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT AFTER HAVING HEARD ABOUT THE CONTENT HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?

I like this show as well. It is nice to see people in need of a drug rehab facility getting help, and having some hoe in the future. But too bad that it`s not anymore.
