Facts

  • The withdrawal symptoms with barbiturates and benzodiazepines can be worse than withdrawal from heroin.
  • More and more opiate users are turning to sniffing and smoking opiates instead of injection them, because of increased purity and the misconception that these forms of administration are safer.
  • On rare occasions, sudden death can occur on the first use of cocaine or unexpectedly thereafter. However, there is no way to determine who is prone to sudden death.
  • Many school districts in the United States have begun to test for abuse of illicit drugs, including steroids, and studies are currently underway to determine whether such testing reduces drug abuse.

Gays and Lesbians - Remsenburg, NY.

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the choice of attending a drug treatment program that is specially designed for them. Deciding to go to one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their issues 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 aids in resolving issues with isolation, shame, feelings of rejection, discomfort in one's own skin, etc. Once rehabilitation 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.
