Facts

  • The largest increases in prescription drug related emergency room visits between 2004 and 2009 were for oxycodone products (242.2 percent increase), alprazolam (148.3 percent increase), and hydrocodone products (124.5 percent).
  • Antidepressant withdrawal symptoms can last one to two weeks, and are rapidly extinguished with reinstitution of antidepressant medication which is one of the reasons individuals become dependent to these drugs.
  • Non-medical and illicit use of hydrocodone (alone or in combination with other drugs) accounted for 104,490 emergency room visits in 2009.
  • PCP users may experience feelings of invulnerability and exaggerated strength, and some users may become severely disoriented, violent, or suicidal.

Gays and Lesbians - Swain

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drugs and alcohol have the option of attending a drug treatment facility that is specially intended for them. Deciding to enroll into one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation 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 treatment 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, 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 know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
