- So the question is how many chances do you give someone

with an addiction or with an alcohol problem

and the answer is one more.

You never wanna give up hope.

We see all the time people who have had multiple,

multiple, multiple times of going through treatment

and not getting it and then they come

and one time they do get it.

Sometimes, honestly, it's with us

and sometimes it's with other people.

It's not like there's any magic cure.

We do a great job of getting people detoxed

and give them a chance to being on recovery.

We use Naltrexone implants and Vivitrol.

We make the detox relatively easy and successful

and we give them a chance, one more chance at recovery

but at the end of the day,

it's up to them to work a program,

to listen to what's being told, to follow the directions,

to stay on the right track

and make sure that they turn this chance

into the time that they are gonna stay

in long-term recovery.

We've seen it over and over

where we almost gave up on people and guess what?

They're now doing,

I can think of a patient right now with an alcohol problem

that we've been through probably 20

or 30 different treatment programs

and now she's got nine months of sobriety,

she's happy and everything's going well and God bless her.

I hope that she stays on that path.

She certainly knows what she needs to do

and right now she says she's willing

and she's actually doing it.

The key is people have to really work

their recovery program.

It's not something passive.

It's not something you say you'd like to do.

It's something you have to do.

I tell patients it's a little bit

like having a gym membership.

The gym membership doesn't actually do you any good at all

unless you actually go and lift the weights

and do the exercises then you start seeing the results.

So do you ever give up on people?

No.

What you should listen for is what their motivation level is

and what they're saying about what they'll do differently.

If I've got a loved one that I'm thinking

should I go and put myself out

and maybe pay some money to help him get treatment

and they're not telling me

that they're gonna really take it seriously

and tell me exactly how they're going

to work a program differently

then I'm not really and nearly as inclined

to put myself out to help them and put my time out

when it's pretty clear they're not gonna do their piece.

So it's the effort that counts.

They need to learn what to do

and then they need to actually do it.

So bottom line is never give up hope.

We've seen miracles and we've seen people do well.

The key is the work that they do.

Five Alive Ronaldo reminds Atletico fans how many times he's won Champions League on return to Madri - Duration: 2:57.

THIS is the brilliant moment Cristiano Ronaldo reminded Atletico Madrid fans just how many Champions League titles he's won

 The former Real Madrid star made an unhappy return to the Spanish capital as Juventus lost 2-0 in the last-16 first-leg clash on Wednesday night

 Ronaldo was subject to jeers and boos throughout the game, having terrorised Atletico on countless occasions with Real

 And the Portuguese superstar could not keep his cool for the entire 90 minutes as he started to flash five fingers at supporters in the stands

 Of course, the five fingers refer to the five Champions League titles he's won as a player

 Ronaldo lifted his first title with Manchester United during their famous penalty shoot-out win over Chelsea in Moscow

 And he went on to win four more at Real, including three on the bounce under Zinedine Zidane

 But there could have been a further dig at Atletico as well.  They have lost their last five European finals, including two painful defeats to Real this decade

 And despite suffering defeat at the Wanda Metropolitano, Ronaldo continued his taunts in when speaking to journalists at full-time

 Without pausing to answer questions, the Los Blancos legend repeated: "I have five Champions Leagues, and Atletico have none
