[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did nobody intervene (or did someone?) after this video?

Yes she was sober after this. She lost her battle with sobriety over a month ago. Now she’s gone.

None of this is new. She had been struggling for years before that video[/quote]

People probably tried to intervene after the video. I don't think you understand what it is like to deal with an addict. Every expert will tell you that if they won't go back for help, you detach with love and let them deal with their consequences and hit rock bottom. I know people would like to think you get a group of people together and stage an intervention and the person gets help and we all live happily ever after. Many addicts burn bridge after bridge. They can seem vulnerable and doe like to the outside world while they are downright abusive to loved ones trying to push them to get help. I am not saying this Dooce, but I am saying addiction is quite a beast.[/quote]
