Facts

  • One treatment approach that is used for managing opiate withdrawal is to treat the symptoms of the withdrawal with appropriate medication. Clondine, an antihypertensive drug, is sometimes used to reduce muscle pain and cramping.
  • It can take as long as three days for the liver to recover and get back to normal functioning after a binge drinking episode.
  • Some crack cocaine users claim that they are unable to duplicate the intensity of the first time they used the drug with subsequent use.
  • Methadone withdrawal is so burdensome to those who are addicted and dependent to it, that someone who is using it may think that they will be on it for the rest of their lives, or at least for many years.

Green Ridge - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug addiction have the choice of going to a drug rehabilitation facility that is specially intended for them. Making the decision to go to one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on other emotional and personal issues they are struggling with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment take a closer look at 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 treatment is complete they will be able to feel more secure about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
