Facts

  • Methamphetamine withdrawal can be more pronounced, painful, and longer lasting than withdrawal from cocaine or amphetamine.
  • The euphoria from amphetamines often doesn't last very long and individuals soon experience an intense mental depression and fatigue.
  • Vicodin increases levels of dopamine in the brain, which produces an intense euphoria or what is known as a high when it is abused.
  • Short-term residential drug rehab was first designed to address alcohol problems, and then transitioned into a multi-faceted program during the cocaine epidemic in the mid-1980s, at which point many began to treat other types of addiction.

Irwin, Iowa - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drugs and alcohol have the option of attending a drug rehab facility that is specifically intended for them. Making the decision 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 issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also address other emotional and personal problems they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery examine how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved. Counseling and/or therapy helps in resolving issues with isolation, shame, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, 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.
