Facts
- The psychological effects of crystal meth are the same as for the regular powder form of methamphetamine, although the side effects of violence and hostility are often more severe.
- Prescription opioids can produce drowsiness, constipation and, depending on amount taken, depressed breathing.
- Mild forms of alcohol withdrawal can cause serious symptoms such as the shakes, seizures, and hallucinations, which commonly occur within 6-48 hours after the last drink.
- Physical addiction to alcohol occurs in consistently heavy drinkers. Since their bodies have adapted to the presence of alcohol, they suffer alcohol addiction withdrawal symptoms if they suddenly stop drinking.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the choice of attending a drug treatment program that is specifically designed for them. Choosing to enroll into one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues they are having difficulties 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 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 know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
