There is a lot of media and press on the subject of substance abuse intervention these days, there are even television shows covering the topic. What happens in most cases of drug and alcohol addiction is the person ceases to track with reality to a greater or lesser degree. They simply don’t see the situations or consequences that are as clear as day to you or I. Their ability to move their attention away from their own drug induced mental and physical pain and out onto their environments is markedly reduced and they are not aware. This can be quite frustrating to loved ones trying to help, as what is obvious to us is simply not real to the addict in many cases. A substance abuse intervention should be designed to give the addict enough assistance with his external observations that the situations and consequences that his or her addiction is creating once again become real to him or her. When the addict feels the threat of pain and loss from his environment is greater than the threat of pain or loss from drugs he or she usually becomes willing to do something, thought this may be reluctantly.

In researching for an effective rehab facility for yourself or a loved one there are several factors that should be taken into consideration. Long-term facilities are statistically shown to produce more lasting results. There are a myriad of issues to handle in most addiction cases and is not achieved overnight. A drug free facility is another vital factor. Some initial medication may be called for in the withdrawal process as withdraw from many substances can be life threatening if the individual is not weaned of the drug or alcohol properly. Another important factor is a full and complete handling of the cravings, and feelings of guilt and depression resulting from addiction. Failure to fully handle these three factors is the number one reasons behind relapse or continued use following treatment.
