I have a new TV addiction - "Intervention" on A&E
OMG that show is hardcore!

Last night had me in tears. This guy was drinking half a case of beer and a few bottles of vodka everyday along with smoking crack and shooting heroin. What was really heartbreaking is this guy was the one that showed his younger sister and older brother how to shoot heroin and now both of his siblings are dead from drug overdoses. I suspect this guy will be dead pretty soon too because he only lasted in rehab for 8 days before leaving and going back to his old ways.

1. Do you have ANY idea how disturbingly ironic your OP is?
I think the DU community needs to set up intervention for you now.

2. Yes they do - after 3 episodes last night and a "Hoarders" tossed in for fun
:scared:

it's somehow reassuring that my life is not as *#%^ed up as those people's lives.

3. I used to watch that show, but it got a bit depressing.
Very few of the people on the show seemed to make it through rehab. Many of them went back to using their drug of choice.
