Help! I have a loved one in need of a Boston intervention because of their addiction to alcohol and drugs.
8.5 percent of those in Boston, MA have used illicit drugs in the last 30 days, among those, cocaine, heroin and illegal prescription drugs like OxyContin rank among the most prevalently abused. Of the 25 percent of people who regularly binge drink in Boston, it is estimated a third may be considered alcohol dependent. For those whose whose use spirals into abuse, dependency or addiction, help is available.
Although a small percentage of people are able to recover from drug or alcohol addiction without intervention, the majority of individuals addicted to alcohol need assistance. For most, simple 28 day rehabilitation is just not enough to maintain control over a powerful addiction; however, with intervention and support, many can learn to control their addiction to drugs or alcohol and rebuild their lives in Boston.
Many individuals have approached their loved one regarding his/her alcohol addiction, with no success. It may be helpful when talking with your loved one, to have a third party present that is professionally trained and knowledgeable about alcoholism and alcohol abuse.

Intervention is the best way to make help available to those struggling with an addiction. Of those participating in an AiR: Assistance in Recovery intervention, 92 percent go on to treatment, realizing the opportunity to change their lives.
Is now the time?
Ask yourself: How much worse will it have to get before you are willing to act?
If your current situation has you concerned enough to explore this option it’s time. If you are concerned about someone you love, nothing can be gained by waiting. Crisis comes and crisis goes, but with the disease of addiction, we don’t get to choose the consequences our loved ones will face the next time.
Will doing an intervention make matters worse?
No. Doing nothing only makes matters worse.
