[QUOTE="exhausted, post: 541914, member: 11001"] I think you did great. You got the car,good step for his safety and others'. I read a book recently called "Love First, a family's guide to intervention" by Jeff and Debra Jay. They also have a website. I saw them on Oprah once. They have a pretty well thought out plan to intervention. They believe we have to raise the bottom so when our loved ones "hit bottom"-it's not the bottom that totally messes up their lives. My daughter will be 18 soon and I want to be prepared should she go further down this path of drug abuse. It might be helpful. They dispell some of the myths about treatment and one of them is the belief that a person has to want help. I know that some of the kids at my daughter's first Residential Treatment Center (RTC) were drug into the program (literally) and ended up really doing well. I recommend reading it. Keep us posted.
