Intervention for me 26 yrs ago by my family
saved my life. It actually gave me a second
chance to start my life over learning healthier
ways to live my life without the use of a
poisonous substance that was ultimately
killing every inch of me inside and out.
My family didn't know what to do with
me when I took too many pills and refused
to be taken to the hospital voluntarily. So
with some phone calls and guidance I
was placed in the hands of those capable
of getting me professional help for my
addiction and state of mind at that time.
Once I was settled in rehab I took that
opportunity to do what I could do so that
I wouldn't loose my family. To do whatever
I needed to do to not return to the insanity
of my addiction each day I remained sober.
Yes, intervention saved my life and helped
me rebuild it to live a healthy, honest, happier
state incorporating a program of recovery
taught to me and use to live by for many
one days sober down the road.
To know that I/we never have to tackle
recovery alone was and still is comforting.
