Intervention on A&E

I hope it's okay to post this here

Anybody watch this show? There is a good episode on now about a man with a morphine addiction. He started his addiction like most of us did with a Dr's Rx. His case he broke his back at work.

I was in treatment with a girl that was on 'Intervention' recently. "Kristine"... cool chick.

Camera's would come into the treatment center about once every 2 weeks. They (A&E) said they'd block out our faces if they ended up catching us in background shots.

She did 90-days in that place. I only did 28-days myself, and that was plenty, although I think I'd have been okay staying a bit longer.

And the beat goes on...

It's a good show.  I used to watch it often but after extending my cable I have many more choices of what to watch.  The only thing I found about the show was that the people shown were really in their last case scenario and I found it difficult to relate. But I know that if I don't stop this madness I will be in the same boat.  My family is supportive and I know that a big part of addiction is denial--"Oh no, that's not me!"

I liked that show when I had cable, I first thought it would make me Jones for drugs, but the beauty of recovery is that I crossed that line that it doesn't look like pleasure any more, just misery. Thank god, Good luck Peace/ Love
