It’s hard to focus on the future when someone you care about is mired in the depths of drug abuse or alcoholism. Indeed, the challenge for anyone conducting an intervention concerns itself mostly with hope: You’ve got to keep your focus trained on the prospect of a brighter tomorrow, even as today seems so impossibly broken. A successful intervention, in the end, is one that’s built on faith, and on optimism. If the addict you care about is going to get better, he’s got to be able to see the daylight through the gloom.

It is very difficult for most people to admit that they are different in any way from everyone else; it is even more difficult if that difference carries with it a sense of shame.
