Facts

  • Studies have shown that individuals struggling with drug addiction often suffer from other health problems, including mental health issues and even occupational, legal, familial, and social problems; issues which should be addressed concurrent to any treatment when the individual is taking part in a drug rehab program.
  • Sudden stopping use of methadone at high doses can result in withdrawal symptoms described as "the worst withdrawal imaginable," which individuals will need to endure for weeks or even months.
  • Known side effects as a result of opiate use are slurred speech, diminished coordination and difficulty concentrating.
  • Men with a history of anabolic steroid use often report cases of impotence; a reduction in the amount of sperm has also been directly linked to short term steroid use.

Gays and Lesbians - Barnhart, Missouri

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the choice of going to a drug rehab program that is specifically intended for gays or lesbians. Deciding to enroll into one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also address other emotional and personal issues they are struggling with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment examine how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved. Counseling and/or therapy aids in resolving issues with isolation, shame, feelings of rejection, discomfort in one's own skin, etc. Once rehabilitation is complete they will be able to feel more secure about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
