Intervention


Intervention airs on A&E Monday’s at 8pm est. time. I’ve been an avid viewer since the show began in 2005. Intervention gives you an insight into the mind of a drug addict, alcoholic and people who have other addictive behaviors. The most interesting part of the show is when they tell the story from birth until there current state. It frightens me to see how these people have hit rock bottom. It doesn’t matter your class in society you are susceptible to becoming an addict. You don’t only hurt yourself as an addict but also your family. They show all types of addicts from a young girl addicted to compressed air, to heroin addicts to pill poppers. It’s fucking bonkers and sad. So the family gets together and tries an intervention to get their loved ones help. Sometimes it works, and then other times it doesn’t. I think this show should be shown at schools on a weekly basis to shows the true effects of drugs and alcohol. To watch people killing them self slowing and hopefully being rescued watch Intervention.
