    Some of you people have really showed your asses in this thread......I just watched 'The Mist' today and if any of you have seen it, you're acting just like those jesus freaks in the grocery store.

    For one....How the fuck is there going to be an 'intervention' when some of the people who will be there will ALREADY BE HIGH??? It's like a bro is going to do a rail in his hotel room and then try to tell somebody else to get off the coke?

    For two, unless this person is a COMPLETE idiot, it isn't like he's actually going to walk into the convention and be surprised about the intervention....Even if he really is too stupid to figure it out, SOMEBODY is going to warn this person beforehand...I can almost guarantee it...

    And for three, why in the FUCK is this thread even here when the intervention hasn't even been done yet?....And why does person after person feel the need to come in here and type the same paragraph of how they were against it until they talked and blah blah and now that they know who the person is, they really need it?

    What's funny is that a lot of you are in this bubble and you actually believe that this bullshit that you're planning is going to go swell....All you're going to do is ruin everybody's vacation and further isolate this man or woman....

                        I still don't know if this thread is a joke or for real.

                        If it's for real, I'm really shocked. As someone who has had two friends deal with major drug issues, I've seen how hard it is to get them to stop. While the intentions may be good, the plan is absolutely absurd.

                        1) Having this at a convention is questionable at best. You want to take them out of their element and away from temptation for this. You are not going to be able to do that with booze, drugs, and hot women a few steps away. You also are going to have a tough time coming across serious with a guy you've been partying with during the week.

                        2) Posting it on a message board is one of the most ridiculous things I've seen. An intervention is supposed to be private and personal. It's not supposed to have some press release on a message board. It's not about "hitting people up on ICQ" to let them know. It's a small group of close friends who sit down and tell a person they need help. All this does is give advance notice to the person and/or embarass them in front of the people they have to do business with in the future. Publically humiliating and blackballing someone is not an ample way to get someone off drugs.

                        3) If you're raising $40,000, why would you not spend $500-$1000 to get a professional to do this?

                        I seriously hope this is a joke. If not, get a mod to delete this thread and do it the correct way.

Most do not stay clean or sober. With 9 years sober, I am one of the lucky ones that made it this far.

                            It has been my experience that interventions do NOT work. An intervention means that the friends and family are ready for the addict to quit; it does not mean the _addict_ is ready to quit. Interventions usually result in hard feelings HOWEVER it does get the addict to start thinking about it. The intervention probably won't work, but it might speed up his realization that he has hit bottom.

                            You are not in a good spot. I think the best way to show an addict how much you care is to push them away from you. An intervention may not get the addict to agree to get into treatment but it gives the friends and family the opportunity to say "We love you but we just cannot be around you when you are using". That is what really needs to happen -- ALL means of support need to be removed so that the only choice left and that is to get clean and sober.
                            However, this is the only guy that I agree with. Trust me, xxxjay is a light-weight compared to what I have done and seen over the years. So I have been very close to a lot of addicts, and pushing them away is the only thing that works.

                            It is called 'tough love."

                            They will thank you later.

                                        I'm not a big fan of pushy stuff like interventions. Some people react just to the being pushed around and make the bad choice. Definitely, you should say something to your friend though.

                                            Its a great idea, set up a rehab sponsored by pillbucks.com and have a livewebcam in there cabana18 style. Its going to be busier than an avn show floor.

                                                I don't think this show is good place to start rehab.

                                                It is, however, a great place to relapse!

                                                    rehab doesn't start at the show.

                                                    intervention starts at the show.

                                                    rehab is the weeks and months afterwards!

                                                        Well, I'm still iffy on the whole intervention concept, but, having talked about who it is on ICQ, I guess it might be the only way to reach them. Hopefully having law enforcement there will help save someone who needs help without getting anyone in trouble at any of the parties.

There are some safe folks who are clean in the industry (I know Chad's outed himself, so have I, and if I recall correctly, a bunch in the "Who Doesn't Drink" thread) - so there are always people to hang with and feel secure.

                                                                                                    Many that will offer their help on this is not his friend neither, they just want in on the action so they feel important since they got some stories to tell.
                                                                                                    Not to mention the chances of such things going wrong at a show is big, especially if the guy is already on something, it could destroy or tarnish his online business as well assuming he got one.

You wouldn't be doing this at the Forum if you didn't know this person well enough to know that it will have the biggest impact and best odds of acceptance at the show. If the industry is the only family your friend has, they may have a slightly better chance of recovery feeling accountable to so many at this point. I guess if your friend has any doubt that their drug use is perceived as a serious problem you can always open this thread for them. Best of luck to everyone involved in keeping your good friend above ground.

People create their own realities good or bad. Also if you haven't been there yourself your not going to be much help.
