It is often hardest to see your loved ones struggle with a problem and know that there is nothing you can do to make it any better. Drug use is one of these problems, because it is very hard to force someone to get help. Even though it is certainly true that a person will recover much better when treatment is their own idea, it is sometimes important for you as a parent or spouse of someone with a drug problem to step in and take the decision out of their hands. They might not realize that they have a problem right away, and therefore they might balk at the idea of treatment. They also might refuse treatment, and if this is the case, there is very little that you can do for the person. However, in some cases, you as a parent or spouse can force your loved one into a drug rehab program. In these certain cases, the person you love might enter the program completely unaware that they have a problem, and they might seem to resent you for putting them into this program. However, with the right treatment and the right frame of mind, most of the time, your loved one is going to find out that they do indeed have a problem. Once they can admit this, they can truly begin to heal.
