Facts
- Some Ecstasy users experience negative effects right away and may become anxious and agitated.
- When cocaine is smoked the high may last only five to 10 minutes, causing the user to want more cocaine more often to try to maintain that high.
- When Coca was first introduced the alkaloid cocaine was isolated, and it was used in medicine for its medicinal effects on depression, alcohol and morphine addiction, fatigue, and as a local anesthetic. The result was addiction and dependency to cocaine and its use in medicine was discontinued.
- Vomiting is the body's defense mechanism which prevents too much alcohol from being absorbed.
Gays and Lesbians - Mendocino, CaliforniaGays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the option of attending a drug rehab program that is specifically intended for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to go to one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only deal with their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on 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 aids 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.
