Love First Intervention
create a pathway to yes
What does it take for a person to accept help?
The most damaging myth
“You can’t help someone who doesn’t want help. They just need to hit bottom.”
Many families are sadly told they must wait for alcoholics to hit bottom before there is any hope for recovery. But do we realize this myth dooms families to years of unhappiness and devastation? No one ever mentions that when the alcoholic or addict hits bottom, they take the family along for the ride — even the smallest children. A Love First clinical intervention is the answer.
Ask a different question
“If you can’t help an alcoholic until he wants help, what will get him to want help?”
When we ask what will it take, we change our thinking. We stop focusing on the problem, and start working on the solution. Love First intervention uses the power of love and concern in a specific and organized way to break through denial, so we can help our loved ones get the help they need.
