Do People Forced Into Treatment Stay Sober?

In this thought-provoking episode, we tackle the controversial topic of forced addiction treatment. From involuntary commitment to court-mandated programs and family interventions, we examine whether these approaches help or hinder recovery. Join us as we unpack the complexities of these scenarios and offer real-life insights into their effectiveness.

What we’re covering:
Involuntary Commitment: We break down the 5150, Baker Act, 304 Commitment, and Pink Papers—exploring how being deemed a danger to oneself or others can lead to mandatory treatment and its impact on recovery.

Court-Mandated Treatment: Learn how addiction-related legal troubles are shifting offenders from jail time to treatment programs and the challenges this brings.

Family Pressure: Does forcing a loved one into treatment out of concern help or harm? We’ll discuss the role family plays in these tough decisions.

Expect real-life stories, expert advice, and an open dialogue about the implications of forced treatment.
