Intervention: The Man Eating Himself to Death
Addiction has the power to rip people apart, ruin lives, and in some cases even end them.
For the past five years, millions in the US have tuned in to A & E’s gripping series, “Intervention,” which tackles addiction head-on with dramatic, last-chance, life-saving confrontations.
Oprah talks to 24-year-old Josh, who has struggled with an addiction to food, and was literally eating himself to death. At his heaviest, he weighed more than 547 pounds. He turned his life around though - Oprah reveals the transformation he’s made in the last two years.
Then, Oprah speaks to a former PTA mom whose rock bottom came when she started guzzling mouthwash in a desperate attempt to get drunk. Also, a man who self-destructed and became addicted to heroin and cocaine after the deadly shootings at Columbine. Can they stay clean and make a full recovery?
