Facts
- Methamphetamine impairs the ability and the desire to be safe which could lead to riskier activity and behaviors, not just sexually but in general.
- LSD use reached its highest peak during the 1960s and '70s, where it was typically used by those in the "hippie" youth culture during that time.
- When Dilaudid is injected individuals feel an initial surge of pleasure, which then proceeds into a state of gratification into which hunger, pain, and sexual urges do not intrude.
- One study found that individuals who had used Ecstasy just a few times had levels of depression that were up to four times greater than those who had never taken the drug.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the option of attending a drug rehabilitation facility that is specifically designed for them. Choosing 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 address other emotional and personal issues they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment examine 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 stronger about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
