Answer by cailey n
An intervention is a process specially done to help someone who is substance dependent to realize what he is doing and help him recover from his addiction. This is done so that he could learn to accept treatment. Interventions can be done by family members along with close friends, but there are times wherein an intervention specialist is called on to facilitate the proceedings because an expert will be more adept at handling cases of substance abuse.

How to Recover From Emotional Abuse?

Question by Alexa7575: How to recover from emotional abuse?
I was emotionally abused by my parents as a child and had a pretty messed up childhood. My first year in college really helped me to heal, but now that I am home for the summer, I keep having terrible flashbacks. I’m like that, like sometimes it takes even something little, like a sentence on a slide in class, that triggers an extreme emotional response (like sadness and crying). How can I come to terms with my past and learn to love myself?

What Is a Succesful Music Career That I Can Give My Character?

Question by ~>DeLySia ToWEr<~: What is a succesful Music Career that i can give my character?
He is 29, and successfully rich. I want this character to be a lyricist but as a part time job. I need to find a career, which makes him close to famous rock bands (which explains his parting habits and drug addictions) But i don’t want him to be a rock star ( a little too corny for a book).

So please, i need a MUSIC job that will make this character rich, and is plausible with his age. (29)
Thank You!
