Usually a group of people who care about the person involved get together to tell the addict how their behavior is ruining their life, as a result of whichever substance they are abusing. The desired result is that they will seek help.

People normally stage an intervention when they want to get an addict to realize what’s going on, before (or sometimes when they have) reach rock bottom. This process is normally managed by family, friends and sometimes includes a medical professional.
