FAQ's

An intervention is a gentle confrontation of a person and their self-destructive behaviors. This is done in a non-threatening meeting and environment, by a trained professional, family, and close friends. It’s a chance to express honestly how damaging behavior is negatively affecting the lives of those close to them.

The first stage of recovery is understanding when an intervention may be necessary for a loved one. An intervention is commonly required when a person with substance abuse issues has lost the ability to function normally on a daily basis.

• An inability to keep up with work, school, and any other personal responsibilities due to their substance use.
• Complete loss of interest in activities and topics they used to enjoy.
  
• Resources and time spent on seeking out a dangerous substance.
  
• Damage to personal and professional relationships because of substance use.
  
• Inability to cease using a substance, even when risk and consequences of continuing are weighed.
  
• Intense craving for a substance(s).
  
• Withdrawal symptoms when use of a substance is stopped.
