The thing I don't like about Intervention is that the addicts are sent SO FAR from home - sometimes across the country - for treatment. How does one begin to build a sober network when they are so far away from home unless they plan to stay in the area of the treatment facility? Important relationships are built in rehab. I just think it would be so difficult to go away for 60 or 90 or 120 days and then boom! Rehab's done now go home and continue in your recovery.
That would have been very, VERY hard for me.
Of course this is another 1 hour long tv show that's edited. So I'm only assuming this is what happens. Maybe the treatment facilities these folks are sent to arrange for outpatient or continuing care closer to home once they're discharged. I don't know?
