As a substance abuse counselor on Oahu, this is highly unethical. This isn't current. If I were her, I'd start legal action. Do you even know her current condition? No? You might want to follow up and investigate. This is potentially life ruination, and you should be held accountable. Sure, she might have signed a contract, but this doesn't make it right. Is she in recovery? Sober? Why release this again now?
I heard someone once say “it takes 30 days to make something a regular routine in your life, but it has to be done everyday for those 30 days” and that always sticks with me!!!!
It varies but science says about 2 months for it to become automatic. It’s important to those who at day 30 haven’t felt a real change when it may start there. Re-wiring the brain take time. But doing that particular thing you want to implement along with other things is good. Driving a new route to work, brushing teeth with the opposite hand, go for a walk after dinner if you usually don’t, read a book yes a real paper book if you’re always on a device etc
I’m an alcoholic and when I went into AA I was told I had to go to 90 meetings in 90 days because it takes 90 days to create a habit. I ended up going everyday for 6 months and now I’m 8 years sober.
@amez2987. I think for some it probably will be a daily struggle for years or forever. But addicts still need to aquire new habits if life has centered around drinking. Of course it takes healing the root cause as much as possible but staying stuck in traumatic experiences can’t be good either. The wounds are there and may occasionally need to be tended to but other than that it’s about learning how to live and not expect to never encounter problems, just dealing with them differently😊
I watch these videos every single day, not once do they not make me cry. As a person who comes from a line of addiction, unfortunately i too, became an alcoholic. It pushes me to stay sober when i watch these videos. I’m so proud of her.
Wow, I’m sorry to hear that… I’m glad you’ve decided to break the cycle & these vids motivate you. My dad’s an alcoholic along with some other people in my fam. I have the potential to become one as well, but I’m glad it hasn’t come to that point❤
@@tinicoleofficial thank you so much, that means so much to me. It is hard. I grew up watching it and i told myself “i will never ever drink” I said that for many years and well, here I am today, an alcoholic. I am getting better day one day at a time! I am rooting for you my friend ❤️
I know we’re strangers on the internet, but I am proud of you. It takes a lot of courage, strength, resilience, & emotional maturity to admit that you have a problem, do the necessary work to improve yourself, stay away from that problem, & share your experience with others. You are awesome!
@@Jasmine_Grace gosh my tears are flooding after reading that. You have no idea how much that means to me. Thank you so much for your kind words. I am doing the very best that I can every single day. I don’t know who you are, but I can tell you’re a beautiful person. Thank you for being so kind
When I saw "up to 12 beers a day", of course I was thinking, that's a lot of 12oz beers to drink every day... But they were 24oz cans!!! Good for her and the family that she not only made it through the treatment, but she never went down that path again.
That’s a lot of liquid. I’m surprised she’s not fatter with all those empty calories, beer is made from wheat it’s like drinking bread basically. Like just drink liquor at that point it’s cheaper with the number of beers she is drinking it’ll be cheaper and get the job done quicker
The boys chose to live with a man that abandoned the family and left her and them for some random woman. They found it joyous that he randomly showed up after conveniently being absent during the most crucial part of their growing years? No wonder she felt betrayed and turned to drink
Was thinking 🤔 that same 6, but much worse. He was nothing but a supermarket donor, mom didn't abandon them but her sons sur tossed her aside for that trash🤨
I mean it’s hard but a boy needs his father maybe they felt that longing for a male role model. I do get her being in pain though but it’s not the boys fault they wanted to be with their dad
@@maryjanedavis9033i agree to a certain extent…they could have least came every other weekend the summers or something. Then again we don’t know what all went on for them to make that decision…may be more to them just longing for their dad or male figure in their life.
I am a recovering addict & alcoholic. It is the roughest thing I have ever experienced. I suffered seizures trying to get off the alcohol & landed 3 weeks in the hospital bc of the detox. I pray for EVERYONE dealing with addiction ❤
The editing was so bad from ghost images between video cuts to ghost titles of individuals which you could barely see because they were gone in half a second.
I lost two family members to drinking. They were fine until they weren't. One fell down in the shower then passed a few days later. The other didn't feel good & passed a few days later. Also had a friend that died at only 40 years old from drinking. When it hits they go quickly.
Only a matter of time. It stops the pain for a moment but creates a life time of pain and misery. I've taken a lot of different substances and nothing was ever as insidious or harmful to my health and mental well being as the alcohol.
Yeah that's what I've noticed. They pass away in their sleep a lot. Do you know if any of your loved ones who passed away from drinking were diabetic?? Or possibly could have had high blood pressure?

Alcohol is the hardest thing to quit. You can find it anywhere at every gas station grocery store. It is so hard to get away from. I really hope she stays sober though.
No kidding. I was able to quit so many drugs because I had to go seek them out. Eventually, I got tired of dealing with scary people. All I have to do to avoid alcohol is lock myself in my house 24-7-365.
I disagree. Food is the hardest addiction to quit. You HAVE to eat or you’ll die. It’s like letting a tiger out of a cage three times a day and having to wrestle it.
She probably had felt betrayed when her sons left with the man that had caused her so much pain… I know I would be hurt and furious.. she needed to talk to someone to work things through.. therapy with a good counsellor helped me out of my misery. I used to drive everyone around me away and chose substances because its easier than talking and expressing my true feelings, cause I thought no one would get it or they should know to read me…. counsellors and psychologists helped me see things and work through those issues… I am glad I got out of it and I pray she will too ❤ and to anyone out there going through life’s pain and problems ❤
This was a totally touching episode. What a really wonderful and warm family this was. Im SO happy to see Penny lee got clean and sober, her hub quit drinking, and I hope things move foreword from here on in. Penny Lee, you are so fortunate to have this wonderful, loving family surrounding you!
I remember when liquor was fun, now it isn't and does nothing but make me fall asleep. Im so glad I gave it up, also glad I never became too dependent on it to where I couldn't stop.

This fills my heart with absolute joy, admiration, blessings and love. I wish her and family all the very best always moving forward. Well done, very very well done to both of you. Congratulations ❤️
I started "bartending" for my teenage brothers house parties and had my first hangover at 10. Started buying booze every weekend when I was 13. By 17, I was experiencing the shakes without it. I stopped drinking for two years and have changed my dynamic with alcohol and was able to enjoy a glass of wine this year without having to buy an extra bottle to hide. I am pregnant now and am proof, it can all change if you are willing to CHANGE IT.
I had a substance abuse problem. There’s always a root of where this unhappiness comes from. I had childhood trauma. Then I was in 2 relationship that were abusive. Mentally physically, emotionally Bc of my addiction, I gave my son to his father to take care of. I was not stable at all. I wanted him to have a good upbringing and have some discipline. That backfired. My ex basically turned him against me. I know it’s not my son , it’s all his father’s doing. He is now 19. Hopefully soon he will contact me. I pray he does. He’s my only baby ❤❤❤ there’s not one day that I don’t cry for him. I made mistakes but to get this punishment? After all I’ve been through? How evil and cruel .
I'm glad Penny Lee got sober and she seems so much better and healthier to. I hope she's doing much better these days. I admit I didn't care for intervention years ago but now I'm into it because I used to be an alcoholic until I quit 3 years and 5 months ago. I'm still staying strong and I haven't had any alcohol since December of 2020. Invervention is a interesting show and it's about people that are addicted to drugs and not all of them get sober but most of the cases do but it depends on the person.
Most of us only drink coffee ☕️ when we first get up and need to get awake, not 12 cups all day long x You are an alcoholic like my step dad was. You are going for organ failure, then will you listen?
Idc if someone’s family. Leaving your kids w/ a CHRONIC alcoholic is INSANELY DANGEROUS & irresponsible. If she blacked out & the kids could get hurt or worse.
Alcohol is a monster, when i met.my.ex it was either her or the alcohol cause i had a really bad drinking problem and i chose to quit drinking and havent had any for 5 years now, it makes my stomach hurt if i even take a sip of a beer
You can quit. If you need a friend to talk to I’ve been an alcoholic, kinda hard to admit that but if it helps anyone there is a way out I promise it will get better and you will be happier.
i drink because i dont want to think or remember my past, its easier to drink since you cant change the past....only time i stop is when the hungover is so bad that im shaking...
@queenbabybee1508. But you can heal from anything if you get the right therapy and find a support system. Talk therapy can work for some but your body has a memory too so focusing on that is very important also. There are two good authors Gabor Maté and Bessel Van De Kolk. They also do interviews on YT. It’s personal what’ll work for you but you can absolutely change your direction and find a new identify/path so to speak😊
@@queenbabybee1508 and has any of those drinks made your life better? You know your life can't improve with that daily lifestyle. If you don't see yourself wanting to change then ... just be prepared for things to get worse, and worse. Good luck sweetheart
It doesn’t matter if she’s stops or not depending on how long she drank like that she will have cirrhosis of the liver my mom died from it and she quit drinking after over 30 years
All she wanted was for you guys to be back in her life. That's all you had to do. The drinking was only the symptom. Hopefully you're there for your Mom more. I wish I had that chance again with mine.
Statistically six people a day die from alcohol poisoning. I have personally known four people die of alcohol poisoning. The closest was my youngest brother at the young age of 38. I think that a person should only be able to buy three 12 oz beers a day. After your license is scanned it keeps track of the remainder of your alcohol.
My mom, my step dad, my birth dad, my oder brother, and three deceased younger brothers were all alcoholics. Only my older brother,(on the wagon for years) is still alive. The three younger brothers died of being in their "Beer Belly Crew" and being "poorly educated". Why am I not an alcoholic? Don't want to live like them. Didn't go home for holidays. lol Serious drama.
@@pohakumana4288 It sounds like you've endured a lot within your family, and I commend you for breaking away from that cycle. Choosing not to follow in their footsteps takes immense strength and determination. Your resolve to live differently despite the challenges is truly admirable. It's okay to distance yourself from toxic environments, especially when it's for the sake of your own well-being. Your decision to prioritize your own path is something to be proud of.
@@SoraFan23 Nah LOL pride? on of the 7 Syns. It was nothing. I drink. I don't drink to stupidity. It's not my on daily menu since my 20-30s. I just never got addicted. I know my limit. Moderation is key.
The word of God explains it all, if people just listen to sound doctrine,; its key 🔐 to unlocking the mystery as to why it's all happening in the first place 😔. **Through knowledge shall the JUST be delivered 🤍**" the Bible says"
I watch these videos every so often, and my question is how on earth do they not know they are on 'Intervention '? You have a TV crew, you are being interviewed, etc. What do they think they are being interviewed for? This show is not new. JA
The Concrete Confessional blog guy just dropped a piece on the ethics of filming people while they're this f*cked up... A lot of keyboard warrior drama over it, but it was pretty balanced IMO
Family. You don’t get to pick your family. When you’re an adult you don’t associate with family anymore. You can move to a place far away from them and enjoy your peace and life
Just don't touch the stuff to begin with. I grew up with people who drank and never touched the stuff. I have no desire to. If you don't start, you will not have the issue.
@@simsimahI can hike 2 hours a day , bike 1 hr a day, kayak, ....water cannot do it. I need carbs. I'm very active, I'm moving all day except to sleep. I need a beer while I'm being active, and another one after the activity is over

@@queenbabybee1508 and has any of those drinks made your life better? You know your life can't improve with that daily lifestyle. If you don't see yourself wanting to change then ... just be prepared for things to get worse, and worse. Good luck sweetheart
Brilliant idea ending so happy she got help
I knew someone that used to drink so much beer, that they had to make themselves vomit just so they could drink more
Wow
My Grandpa died from drinking. He was in a bar fight and died before being thrown in a ditch. My alcoholic uncle died as well.
This is a very old episode, I hope she's still sober 🤙
I’m crying this episode is sad. I feel bad for her.
A dozen!!!!¡ Holy F!
What a beautiful lady….i know how alcoholics work…I married one….some are happy but for the angry ones, it just GETS WORSE…..GET OUT FAST!!!
This is old. Why do A&E keep uploading old episodes?
That's what I thought too.
Nothing new.
I was stationed in Hawaii.There is a lot of drugs and drinking.I use to see my ex in Waianae every weekend after formation.I miss HI.
who edited this?

It’s so bad I thought I was the only one who noticed help 😭
Massive layoffs
Those are massive beers too! Poor thing.
Make sure you don't meet the Dog my brudda... "GET HER LELAND GET HER!!!"
It doesn’t matter if she’s stops or not depending on how long she drank like that she will have cirrhosis of the liver my mom died from it and she quit drinking after over 30 years
I am a big guy and i am well on my way after 2 of those big cans.
Sober living yall
Brah,,, Its beer
All she wanted was for you guys to be back in her life. That's all you had to do. The drinking was only the symptom. Hopefully you're there for your Mom more. I wish I had that chance again with mine.
Statistically six people a day die from alcohol poisoning.
I have personally known four people die of alcohol poisoning.
The closest was my youngest brother at the young age of 38.
I think that a person should only be able to buy three 12 oz beers a day.
After your license is scanned it keeps track of the remainder of your alcohol.
My dad was an alocholic and he said that whenever he was in Trinidad he can drink all the beer he wanted. He was out of control.
My mom, my step dad, my birth dad, my oder brother, and three deceased younger brothers were all alcoholics. Only my older brother,(on the wagon for years) is still alive. The three younger brothers died of being in their "Beer Belly Crew" and being "poorly educated".
Why am I not an alcoholic?
Don't want to live like them.
Didn't go home for holidays. lol Serious drama.
@@pohakumana4288 It sounds like you've endured a lot within your family, and I commend you for breaking away from that cycle. Choosing not to follow in their footsteps takes immense strength and determination. Your resolve to live differently despite the challenges is truly admirable. It's okay to distance yourself from toxic environments, especially when it's for the sake of your own well-being. Your decision to prioritize your own path is something to be proud of.
@@SoraFan23 Nah LOL pride? on of the 7 Syns.
It was nothing. I drink. I don't drink to stupidity.
It's not my on daily menu since my 20-30s.
I just never got addicted.
I know my limit.
Moderation is key.
The word of God explains it all, if people just listen to sound doctrine,; its key 🔐 to unlocking the mystery as to why it's all happening in the first place 😔.
**Through knowledge shall the JUST be delivered 🤍**" the Bible says"
Yeah that's pretty much the culture there is to drink....
😢Dam alcohol.. i wish them the best
Force à elle 💪🏿
Whatever it is your trying to block out you just need to learn to accept
It's a lady I live with has same problem makes me uncomfortable seeing her kill herself with alcohol.
Get em help
@@oppkxmods3153 GROWN people don't listen man can't tell people nothing I'm 27 and try to tell her GET help won't listen so I stay out of it.
What did her sons think would happen to her?
Here in Keny our beers ae nit past 250ml or 500ml
I watch these videos every so often, and my question is how on earth do they not know they are on 'Intervention '? You have a TV crew, you are being interviewed, etc. What do they think they are being interviewed for? This show is not new. JA
To see her becoming an alcoholic just like her own mother, becoming the very thing she feared growing up, is quite sad.
Drinking is fun until the liver dies.
🙏
Not to sound inconsiderate but i crave a ice cold tall can of micholbe ultra right now
I think living in Hawaii would always be lovely
It is until you realize how expensive it is to live there especially if you dont have a military salary.
You ever heard of Dog the Bounty Hunter Lauren?!?!
I love beer
I use too until my liver paid the price.
full of GMO corn syrup dats why
Is it mutual?
@@sandylynn1912 I never really liked it. B52s are my drink. Grand Marnier
I'm drinking right now. lol!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🥰👍
Who on earth did this crappy editing? Things flashing on and off the screen before you can read them. Do better, A&E.
Layoffs
12 24 ounces y'all.. not the small ones.
Can't believe Hawaii hasn't legalized weed yet.
en español por fa😊
If i lived in Hawaii i would learn to Surf and live in a Van on the beach
The Concrete Confessional blog guy just dropped a piece on the ethics of filming people while they're this f*cked up... A lot of keyboard warrior drama over it, but it was pretty balanced IMO
Family.
You don’t get to pick your family.
When you’re an adult you don’t associate with family anymore. You can move to a place far away from them and enjoy your peace and life
Nobody took your kids . You took your own kids away from you with your choices . I am an addict and i don’t blame other people for my choices.
Joshua do you want to play a game?
They're letting her watch the kids but they don't trust her with money that doesn't sound right at all?
They rarely ever agree on the first try
1:48 24 ounce lol
770ml x 12 = 9240mL a day
💕👍
This one isn’t even dramatic, this one is plain out sad. :/
A dozen a day is pretty normal most days i have 12 today i had none lol
Just don't touch the stuff to begin with. I grew up with people who drank and never touched the stuff. I have no desire to. If you don't start, you will not have the issue.
Exactly that’s how drugs work once you try it you’ll always remember how good it felt ..everyone reacts differently
Why does beer-only alcoholism never seem like it's legit? It reminds me of the South Park Randy episode where he acts like he has a disease. Lol
I can’t wait to move off island Jesus Christ
I need to show my wife. My 3 beer a day isn't bad
How about three waters a day.
@@simsimahI can hike 2 hours a day , bike 1 hr a day, kayak, ....water cannot do it. I need carbs. I'm very active, I'm moving all day except to sleep. I need a beer while I'm being active, and another one after the activity is over
@@simsimahI easily drink a gallon of water a day or more!
Is she don’t stop drinking and feeling like she’s on top of the world she will be below the earth
a dozen? That's it!?
lmfaooo riggghhttt
A & E is pretty pathetic to use copyright takedowns on smaller channels that not only transform their videos for fair use, but also channels that use bodycam footage which doesn't belong to A&E in the first place, they are public record. Real nice!
“ I’ll just have one drink ! said no Hawaiian Indian ever “
Honestly, leave her. Leave her be by herself. The longer you stay and keep giving the worse she’ll get
Drink for the good times
Beer ..lol 🍺
