The documentary series Intervention returns with another powerful episode, ‘Tommy & Melly,’ airing on A&E on Monday, July 8, 2024, at 8:00 p.m. The episode centers around two 19-year-olds, Tommy and Melly, who are struggling with addictions to fentanyl and meth, respectively. As they confront their addictions, they also delve into the underlying sources of pain in their lives.
For Tommy, the loss of a beloved uncle to drugs is a significant factor in his addiction. He finds himself grappling with the same demons that took his uncle’s life, and now he must confront his own issues to break free from the cycle.
Melly’s journey is marked by a different kind of trauma; she experienced teen pregnancy and is now a mother. As a result, she faces unique challenges as she navigates young motherhood while battling her addiction.
During the episode, we witness the interventions staged by their loved ones, who present them with difficult choices. Will they choose to accept the help offered and embark on a path to recovery? Or will they resist and risk losing the support and privileges they currently have?
