Adam & Michael is the 15th episode of the first season of the reality TV show Intervention. The episode follows Adam and Michael, two young men who struggle with addiction to prescription drugs and alcohol respectively.

Adam, a 28-year-old married father of two, started taking prescription painkillers after a back injury and quickly became addicted. He turned to heroin when his prescriptions ran out and has since lost everything, including his job, his house, and his family. Adam's addiction has also put him in dangerous situations, including a run-in with the law.

Michael, a 21-year-old college student, started drinking heavily in high school and soon developed an addiction to alcohol. His drinking has caused him to drop out of college, lose his job, and alienate his family and friends. Michael's addiction has also led to serious health problems, including seizures and hospitalizations.

The episode starts with Adam and Michael's families gathering for an intervention with the help of a professional interventionist. The families share their concerns about the men's addictions and their hope for them to get help.

Adam initially resists the idea of going to rehab, insisting that he can get clean on his own. However, after hearing the heartfelt pleas of his family, he agrees to go to treatment.

Michael is also resistant at first, insisting that he doesn't have a problem with alcohol. However, after seeing the impact his addiction has had on his loved ones, he agrees to go to rehab as well.

The rest of the episode follows Adam and Michael's journey through treatment. It is clear that both men are dedicated to getting clean and improving their lives. They attend therapy sessions, participate in group activities, and receive support from their families.

However, both men also face challenges during their stay in rehab. Adam struggles with withdrawal symptoms and his cravings for drugs, while Michael faces the reality of his past behavior and the damage it has caused.

Despite these challenges, both men make progress in their recovery. They learn coping skills and gain a better understanding of their addictions. They also gain the support of their families, who are hopeful for their future.

The episode ends with Adam and Michael successfully completing their rehab programs and returning home. They both express gratitude for the opportunity to get help and are committed to staying clean and sober.

Overall, Adam & Michael is a powerful episode that showcases the impact of addiction on individuals and their families. It also highlights the importance of seeking help and the hope that recovery can bring.
