Have any of y'all seen the show intervention on A&E? If you have seen the show, have you ever seen someone on there b/c of their MJ addiction?

There are always alcholoics, meth addicts, herion, etc.

It's so strange.

"Marijuana is not a drug. I used to suck dick for coke. Now that's an addiction. You ever suck some dick for marijuana?"
I love you Bob Saget. (sp)

all of them i have seen have been because of hard drugs. meth and heroin i think. there is probably no show for weed because they haven't been able to find anyone thats fucked their life up really bad by only smoking weed.

Yeah, they're into more serious, addictive drugs on that show. I have seen episodes where they're profiling a heroin or meth user who happens to be smoking a J in an occasional scene. But no, they're not likely to focus on weed as the substance driving the intervention. People do develop psychological dependence on weed at times, and I'm sure there have been weed "psych" addicts in rehab facilities before, but lots more are addicted to physically addictive drugs.

I think "Intervention" is a really good show. I'm betting it helps a lot of people in the viewing audience. Sometimes it breaks my heart to watch.

ive actually seen shows where cocaine, meth, or heroine addicts would actually use weed to help them stop doing the more dangerous drugs and the show portrayed it as a positive thing...I thought it was smart

I don't think it would make very good tv...it would mostly be ignorant parents and theyre stoner kids. Most people don't view trees as a serious addiction.



I have to go to rehab for marijuana because i peed dirty :(

i agree with bob sagat. marijuana is not a home wrecker.

i watch this show as well, and its almost always meth, heroin, coke, alcohol or a mix. id like to see some people coming off steroids or shopping addiction or something ya know?

ive been thinking of getting a degree in drug counseling actualy. im only going to a jr college right now but eventually when i get to a 4 year id like to get into drug counseling and addiction and try to show the benefits of cannabis to get people off the hard shit. just an idea ive had...
