How Do I Stage an Intervention for My Own Addiction?

Question by ApparentlyTransparent: How do I stage an intervention for my own addiction?
No kidding here. i amin the midst of inviting my close family and frineds to my home this evening to finally “come out of the closet” and come free regarding my drug related addictions. I have watched Intervention, and theres no swank rehab to be offered, no cameraman to publicize, just me and my best of the best, and my thoughts. Any ideas? I’m looking at around 7-7:30ish.

That isn’t an intervention.

That is a confession.

And just invite them over and pour out your heart and come clean.

You say you have a problem then get on the phone in front of them to book your rehab appointments. A crisis team is always available, you could even arrange for them to sit in and evaluate/moderate your intervention so there’s no going back..
