[quote=Anonymous]Agree with the PPs who say this is more complex than just telling the person how you feel and cutting ties if they won't go to rehab. In fact, if they go to rehab but aren't ready for it, you're probably wasting thousands of dollars. People who do intervention like this are trying to to make themselves feel less guilt. They say, "at least I tried!" Real intervention is very slow and very time consuming/emotionally consuming. Many people wallow in a stage where they are not ready for change - even if they know there is a problem. So if it doesn't work out, instead of paying for rehab for someone who doesn't want it, pay for therapy for yourself to learn how to manage the feelings that come with all of this. This is a long, horrible road to go down and I'm sorry you have to deal with it. [/quote]
