GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the choice of going to a drug rehab program that is specially designed for them. Deciding to attend one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on other emotional and personal issues they are struggling 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 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 more secure about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
