"Intervention" profiles people whose addictions or other compulsive behaviors have brought them to a point of personal crisis, and the friends and family members who come together to help them.

“Are you using drugs”
“No. But I will take a drink of alcohol and a hit of meth”

[ontheroadwithrvsh]

I feel sorry for the youngest. Imagine all the people you’re supposed to look up to are addicted to drugs. As much as it’s a choice to start, he’s forced to be surrounded by them and eventually the pressure was too much. He is doing better than the rest of the family which is amazing and well deserved

[stevenduhon]

Never seen so many people so willing to go to treatment. That was amazing. I know my intervention did not go like this but I can say that I’ll be seven years clean and sober this October

[maryaguirre]

I just want to give a huge shoutout to the mom’s boyfriend Tim, who was the only one who took the program seriously. He didn’t have the kind of support that the family had, but he took it upon himself to get better. What a guy! I hope wherever he is, he is happy and healthy 🎉

[JA-rsos]

Mad respect for the one daughter who is clean and trying to help. God bless and keep her safe from these people.

[Sarah-dqfm]

First time I’ve seen an episode based on an entire family. This is incredibly sad…

[SandiByrd]

Sad ending but I knew that Dad wasn't going to take recovery seriously. He didn't even want to admit he was an addict.

[dle.todayy]

This is a great example of why invitations should be extended without making assumptions. The person they had the least faith in is the one who completed treatment and remained sober.

As a boy who lost his mom to addiction, but first lost her for 14 years to drugs, this hits hard. I pray they all get clean and make an appearance in their children’s lives.

[Delicate_Disaster]

Dylann seems like an absolute angel. The words she chose and how she said it was beautiful.

[kingatheist]

"Are you on drugs right now?"
"That's a difficult question to answer"
No it isn't lol.

[jas]

Go for Tim, but it’s crazy that Joey was the one who seemed like he really didn’t want to go and was stayed the longest

[margaret]

I’ve been through this with my Son too. And, ONE THING that I learned is: that it has to come from the person. Meaning.. this will ONLY WORK if that person is 110% without a DOUBT, ready to get help. It’s not something you can force, it HAS TO COME FROM THEM, period. My Son came to me when HE was READY and said to me, “Mom, I need help.” So, WE immediately got him help. He’s been CLEAN for 10 years now.😘GOD BLESS ALL🙏

[xdirtyrandyx]

BRUH it hurts to hear that almost everyone left but the actual outcome of who stayed shocked me in a really positive way.
The brother everyone assumed would refuse and the moms BF? They took their gifts to heart and I wish the rest of their family would follow suit.

[mickeyarmstrong]

i’m so scared for the brother who’s actually working the program to return back home. he seems like the most strong willed and they’re all going to drag him down

[Anakaraya]

The speed at which every single member of this family said yes, not a single one (except for maybe Joey who seemed out of it) was under any delusion about what was happening with their addiction. I hope they all do well eventually. It must be incredibly tough to be in an entire family dealing with the same addictions. I hope Christine realizes that the pain of losing her son will only continue if she doesn’t get help. It’s a vicious cycle.

[sborton]

That is a hard one. Part of addiction is the people that you get high with. So getting away from them is crucial to recovery. But when it is your family that you get high with you are hit with a double whammy. You need them to support you but they are also the ones that will lead you back to using.

[ZekeThePlumber]

The one person none of them really cared about, is the one doing good. Let's Go Tim!

[NoDeathforDinner]

Had a relapse last year after 10 years clean, but proud to say its been over a year since the last time I used and I'm not going back! I hope this family finds peace and sobriety. Wishing them all the best.

[mandynicole]

Its so sad to see addiction run through a family like this. I wish them all the best. Also I love seeing Sylvia as an interventionist. She's such a sweet lady.
