Data has shown over the years that if you force treatment, or a treatment is done when people aren't ready, that can leave them more at risk when they have relapses or when they leave treatment. As well, doing that undermines the relationship of trust they may have, particularly with their health care providers.
We say all the time that the opposite of addiction is connection. Having a trusting relationship with their health care provider is what people tell me they crave, they want and they need to help them on their road to recovery.
