This is actually what the video addresses.
Interventions don't work for this exact reason, as the guy said himself. Putting pressure on those relationships someone does have, is not conducive to helping someone stop. In many senses it has little to do with wanting to stop, and a lot more with having the people around you who are supportive and give you a reason to.
