Facts

  • Individuals who are addicted to heroin will endure many of the withdrawal symptoms to reduce their tolerance for the drug, only so they can once again experience the rush.
  • The FDA has urged physicians to use great caution when prescribing methadone, because of the potential for respiratory distress and dangerous changes in an individual's heart beat that cannot be felt by the patient.
  • Non-medical and illicit use of oxycodone (alone or in combination with other drugs) accounted for 175,949 emergency room visits in 2009.
  • Methamphetamine labs seized by law enforcement officials must be cleaned up, expenses which are a significant drain on regional and federal resources.

Ruston - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the choice of attending a drug treatment center that is specially designed for them. Choosing to enroll into one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also address other emotional and personal problems 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 aids 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 more secure about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
