There are many benefits of an alcohol intervention for family members. They get to release the frustration and anxiety they have been carrying with them for so long. It also allows them to accept they are not responsible for the decisions made by the person in the grips of alcohol addiction. Closure is not easy when you are watching a loved one fight a mental illness they don’t realize they have.
By participating in an alcohol abuse intervention, family members can clear the air. They can remain calm and speak their mind without fear of guilt or retaliation. They leave a successful intervention knowing they have done everything within their power to positively realign their loved one’s life. Family members must realize going into the intervention process that it is not up to them to decide between seeking treatment. The final choice is up to the person battling substance abuse. You can’t decide for them. The only thing you can do is make a convincing argument for a healthier, happier life after addiction treatment.
There are many benefits an alcoholic can gain from a successful intervention. During the intervention process, they may begin to exhibit a variety of emotions and reactions. Some may be angry and confrontational. Others may be spiteful or begin to make excuses. Many times, individuals realize their attempts are not having any type of effect, and they will begin to open their minds to the possibility that their substance abuse is destroying the lives of others. Once they begin to really listen to what is being said, they can begin considering treatment options.
Another benefit of an alcohol abuse intervention is that the person struggling with substance abuse can begin to see themselves through the lives of others. They can begin to experience a bit of what their loved ones go through each time they have to face a person who is altered by a substance abuse problem. While this may not be a pleasant experience, it is one they must face if they are truly sincere about taking their first steps toward alcohol treatment. For a person to truly commit to their recovery, they must face the good as well as the bad. An alcohol abuse intervention will make that happen.
