"Addicted" on TLC

Anyone catch this new show? I think it's been on a week.

Along the lines of Intervention but seems to deal a lot more with the recovery aspect.

This show is on heroin addiction. Although that wasn't my doc, boy, we are all the same, aren't we?

Yeah, I just saw it for the first time tonight. One episode was about an alcoholic, another one was about a heroin addict.

I liked it better than Intervention - seems more 'realistic' - the interventionist tells it like it is - there was more insight and discussion on 'crossing that dangerous line' and the recovery process throughout the show instead of just at the end like Intervention does it.

I'm a bigger fan of pleasant "fluff: TV shows
Cooking-House buying/re decorating..they .give me a boost.....

Ah - can't wait to see it. I love these types of shows, as I am fascinated with how alike we alcoholics and addicts are. It helps me with my own self-realizations.
