Facts

  • Women and low-body-weight males are more likely to have higher blood alcohol concentration due to the fact that they will generally have less blood volume to dilute alcohol.
  • Opiates such as heroin convert to morphine in the body which then activates opiate receptors located throughout the brain and central nervous system, including within the reward system.
  • Nearly 70 percent of State and 57 percent of Federal prisoners have used drugs regularly prior to incarceration.
  • The use of amphetamine during strenuous physical activity is very dangerous, particularly when combined with alcohol, and athletes have died as a result.

Derby - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug addiction have the option of going to a drug rehab facility that is specifically intended for them. Making the decision to attend one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on other emotional and personal problems they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment examine 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 treatment is complete they will be able to feel stronger about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
