Families of Alcoholics: For Alchoholic Abuse, Do Interventions Work for Everyone?
Question by Jim: For Alchoholic Abuse, Do Interventions Work for Everyone?
My family is considering doing an intervention for my uncle who’s an alcoholic.
Do you think it’s going to be a good idea to have my uncle come home from the bar to find his home filled with ex or recovering alcoholics “for a chat”.
I have heard interventions work wonders for people, but then I have also heard where the intervention caused permanent friction within the family with the alcoholic not liking the feeling of “being ambushed” and not trusting the family members ever again.
