Tonight Intervention Episode #31 "Cristy" will reair, the story of a 24-year-old stripper and hard-core crystal meth addict/alcoholic.

This episode is said to be one of the most startling, difficult-to-watch episodes the show has ever aired.

A brief description from IMDB:

Cristy is a 24 year old stripper who is an alcoholic and meth addict.  She lives rent-free in a trashed-out guest house behind her father's rental property. When she doesn't have money for alcohol, she hangs around liquor stores asking men to buy her vodka. Her parents separated when she was nine and she seems to use that as an excuse to live life without any limits. Her only family member who doesn't seem to be enabling her is her half-brother Ryan. She has warrants for her arrest and says she would rather go to jail than get treatment.

Ken Seeley is the Inteventionist and also a recovering crystal meth and cocaine addict.

The Intervention episode of "Cristy", will air: Monday, October 26 at 9 P.M. and Tuesday, October 27 at 1:01 AM On A&E.

"Cristy" first aired on Intervention August 27, 2006.
