Intervention Principles for Beginners

The key to conducting an intervention is to create a rock bottom for the addict by forcing them into a choice, life or death. First, I will talk about life. Life is a precious gift from God that many people misuse. Instead of living for God and following Jesus they choose to do drugs until they finally drop and then wake up (unless they don’t wake up dead) and focus instead on their own interests, often a hoard pile of wires, broken electronics, unpaid bills and sometimes someone of the opposite sex who has the same habits as them. Forcing people to give up their own plans (or affections) is the most critical step… but first you must convince as many people as possible that the party is over. No more cake; time for heartbreak.

Try to get in contact with everyone they know, family members, friends, roommates, etc. Describe to them how this person is doing a terrible job of running their life and how it is time for the group (or just you) to make their choices, instead of them making the choices, which clearly, they can’t do.
 
If they were making good choices none of this would be necessary. Don't feel bad that you need to take time out of your day to temporarily (hopefully only temporarily) halt this person's free will. Always remember to blame this intervention on the person who the intervention is for. If they didn't do drugs or drink so much, you wouldn't have this new problem that now will also affect many other people. Once you have bad-mouthed the addict to everyone they know, you will need to find a way push death, so they will choose life. No matter how smart they are, they are not qualified to choose their own path that might lead to death.

Creating a rock bottom for someone is much more fun than you might expect. It is a team building activity.  You will be the leader. The key to making this artificial rock bottom of death is to make it as serious, harmful, and permanent as possible. Choose the leverage that is the most serious to quickly force the addict into making a choice. If they have young children, kidnap them to upset the addict quickly and efficiently. If they get mad you have kidnapped their offspring, threaten to report their illegal drug use to the police so they go to jail.

If they are addicted to a specific drug throw it away. Do not worry about them crying and talking about how they will get sick or will need the drugs to perform at work. If they had a job they really enjoyed, they wouldn't use illegal drugs to cope with their unhappiness anyway. Throwing their drugs away and kidnapping their children now will make them happy in the future. They won't know this yet. Therefore, you will need to ignore every emotion they have and everything they say. The person you used to know is gone. You must force their return at all cost. Breaking the law will show them how serious your death option is. Breaking the law for a short period of time is better than a life of drug use.

If the rock bottom you create for them with all their family and friends isn't serious, they won't change. Make sure the situation you create for them is completely impossible. They want to drive your car to get drugs, then hide the keys. They want to walk to get drugs, tie their shoe laces together. If that doesn't work, breaking a leg with a rock should fix the problem. This operation doesn't use the term "rock bottom" for no reason. Sometimes a rock is necessary. First you must break them, so you can heal them. Remember they made the choice to use drugs and alcohol. Nobody will blame you for any harm you do to the addict; they are the ones causing the harm to themselves. You are just a facilitator who is helping them get well. If you start to feel bad about the pain you caused, remember the sacrifice you are making to help them. Always remember it is their fault for putting you in the situation where you had no choice but to make their choice for them.

In order to provide great help, you must do great harm. If you can’t understand how you are forced to force them, how will they understand why they need to be forced to receive this great help that carries the price of great harm.
