The Interventionist: Revival Maybe

http://kenwilliamsrecovery.blogspot.com/2015/04/revival-maybe.html

Information and opinion by a longtime advocate for recovery from addictions. Thursday, April 16, 2015. So,  how come you stopped writing that great little blog, The Interventionist? Did you stop doing interventions? Go out of business? Dry up and have nothing to say? What is this,  multiple choice? Okay, so I stopped writing for a while. What's the big deal? It's time to begin looking at addiction and recovery in a new context. May 4, 2015 at 1:10 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). History repeats i...

The Interventionist: May 2015

http://kenwilliamsrecovery.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html

Information and opinion by a longtime advocate for recovery from addictions. Monday, May 25, 2015. Let's take a moment, as we engage in our patriotic hoo-hah, to remember that conditions in most Veterans Hospitals are terrible, most Veterans benefits are all but decimated, mental health benefits for Veterans are either scarce to the point of non-existence or buried under so many layers of red tape that one has to wonder if it isn't intentional. Look for the one to give a damn. Links to this post. I wrote...

The Interventionist: April 2015

http://kenwilliamsrecovery.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html

Information and opinion by a longtime advocate for recovery from addictions. Wednesday, April 29, 2015. History repeats itself, and somehow were shocked by it. I posted on Facebook today that we would do well to remember the peaceful nebbishes of Occupy Wall Street, because the next group that shows up to protest is usually not so polite. At least that's what history tells us. Of course, we ignore that. We ignore at our own peril, but ignore we do. How quaint. How '60s. Who could take them seriously?

The Interventionist: December 2012

http://kenwilliamsrecovery.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html

Information and opinion by a longtime advocate for recovery from addictions. Saturday, December 29, 2012. What Are You Doing New Years Eve? Now, I have to admit that like a lot of ex-drunks and pillheads, I never spent much time thinking about New Years Eve. (Or Christmas, or Labor Day, or Arbor Day for that matter.) After all, in an addiction it's just another day, right? Happy (Sober) New Year! Links to this post. Tuesday, December 25, 2012. A Very Merry Christmas! Now get another day! And after Step 6...

The Interventionist: Addict To Addict Prejudices

http://kenwilliamsrecovery.blogspot.com/2015/05/addict-to-addict-prejudices.html

Information and opinion by a longtime advocate for recovery from addictions. Saturday, May 2, 2015. Addict To Addict Prejudices. I had a friend ran methadone clinics for years. She used to say that her clients were the "lepers of the Recovery Movement." At the time I thought she was being a little dramatic, but now, I'm not so sure. Of all the things I write or speak about related to addiction and recovery, the use of medications as recovery aids is the most controversial. No contest. I share this becaus...

Information and opinion by a longtime advocate for recovery from addictions. Sunday, March 16, 2014. An Old Man's Winter Night. What's the first thing you think of when you see a homeless kid on the street? Where are their parents? Why aren't they in school? Am I about to get robbed? What so you feel? Well, guess what? If you thought or felt anything, you are in the minority. Most of us see or think or feel nothing when we walk past a homeless kid, because we don't even see them. The facts about homeless...
