i've watched the show off and on, and i think that is the first time i've ever seen anybody actually refuse treatment! she didn't really seem to care what her family and friends had to say. but i think you have to want to go, if people try to force you , it just doesnt' work. the company i worked with 2 years ago said going to treatment was the only way to keep my job. they were very supportive, and looking back on it, i should have gone, but i wasn't ready. i went to outpatient and AA for about 1 week and decided it wasn't for me, and gave up a good job because "no one is gonna tell me what to do! and i'll drink if i want!"
and her boyfriend was just a total enabler, which i'm sure is the reason she was with him. they had only been together for 2 weeks!
