Facts

  • Percocet addiction can develop without the individual even being aware that it is happening, until they come to realize that their dependence to the drug has begun to control their life.
  • Fevers associated with drug withdrawal must be closely monitored to make sure that they are not the result of an underlying infection, which should be treated immediately.
  • Without medical supervision, seizures as a result of Valium withdrawal can result in death, so do not attempt to come off of Valium on your own without medical assistance.
  • When a prescription medication is stopped, withdrawal from the drug causes a return of the original symptom the medication was used for, often in a much worse degree.

Gays and Lesbians - La Place, Louisiana

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug addiction have the choice of going to a drug rehabilitation program that is specially intended for gays or lesbians. Deciding to go to one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues 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 aids in resolving issues with shame, Isolation, 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 be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
