Facts

  • The withdrawal symptoms with barbiturates and benzodiazepines can be worse than withdrawal from heroin.
  • Most opiate addicted individuals are no longer capable of holding down a job which often leads to loss of health insurance coverage. Diseases and conditions that develop as a result of opiate addiction are therefore often paid for through public funds because these individuals cannot pay for their own treatment.
  • Many workplaces offer and support Employee Assistance Programs that offer short-term counseling and/or assistance for individuals with drug or alcohol problems, which gets drug addicted employees connected to local drug rehab resources, including peer support/recovery groups.
  • Studies indicate that drug rehab treatment can cut drug abuse in half, reduce criminal activity up to 80 percent, and reduce arrests as much as 64 percent.

De Soto - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the option of going to a drug rehabilitation facility that is specially designed for them. Deciding to go to one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues they are struggling with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery take a closer look at how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved. Counseling and/or therapy helps 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 stronger about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
