Lakeside - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the option of attending a drug rehab program that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Deciding to attend 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 having difficulties 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, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, etc. Once treatment is complete they will be able to feel more secure about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
