Facts

  • The individual who has become physically as well as psychologically dependent on heroin will experience heroin addiction withdrawal with an abrupt discontinuation of use or even a decrease in their daily amount of heroin taken.
  • Major heroin withdrawal symptoms peek about 48 and 72 hours after the last heroin dose and subside after about a week.
  • Rapid opiate detoxification (ROD) is an emerging treatment option for opiate withdrawal that is reportedly faster and causes less physical discomfort than traditional forms of opiate detoxification.
  • Opiate withdrawal symptoms are often described as similar to the flu but much worse and can cause aching, fever, sweating, shaking, or chills.

Sea Cliff, NY. - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of going to a drug rehab facility that is specially designed for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to enroll into one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues they are struggling with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery examine 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.
