[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 166425, member: 1514"] I watch this show pretty regularly especially now that the new season has started. In fact I roped the family into watching an episode last night of a previous show that featured a bipolar/substance abuser guy who reminded me eerily of Cory. It is odd how many times I can see Cory in the people on the show. It shocked me that he sat there to watch the show really but he did. I asked him point blank if anything hit home...did he see anything of himself in that episode. He tried to play it off but I wonder. The episode was complete with cops at the house and the kid attempting to run. The "funny" thing was Cory did ask me if I had taken down the number to the show...lol. I told him only worry if he starts being followed around by a camera crew. I do think these shows...this one in particular can work if the entire family is behind the plan. You have to be ready to completely detach from the addict. No more enabling them. You cant allow them to pull you in anymore. No more supporting their addictive lifestyles. Like the Interventioner says...its either Yes or all noise. If they say NO, then you make life miserable for them until they agree. The bipolar boy said No to all his family and in fact told the cops in front of them to take him to jail...the cops took him in his bedroom and told him he was facing prison and he agreed to go to treatment...lol.
