Facts

  • The excessive release of dopamine and stimulation of the brain and central nervous system's natural reward system as a result of opiate use is what leads to addiction.
  • Many parents are unaware of the fact that their adolescent child may be abusing prescription drugs, and may frequently leave unused prescription drugs in open medicine cabinets which can lead to youth prescription drug abuse.
  • Most methadone clinics don't take an individual completely off the drug and actually work to stabilize them at a certain dose for an indefinite amount of time which leaves them dependent to methadone.
  • PCP users may experience memory loss and depression, which may persist for as long as a year after a chronic user stops taking PCP.

Princeton, Maine - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the choice of attending a drug rehabilitation facility that is specifically intended for gays or lesbians. Choosing to go to one of these programs is a great 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 problems 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 rehabilitation is complete they will be able to feel stronger about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
