Facts

  • When cocaine users stop using cocaine, or when they end a cocaine binge, they almost immediately feel the "crash" which includes depression, fatigue, lack of pleasure, anxiety, irritability, sleepiness and a strong craving for more cocaine.
  • Taking only a small dose of LSD may not reduce the possibility of an individual having a negative reaction or bad trip
  • The abuse of prescription drugs such as OxyContin is responsible for a great deal of health care fraud, such as corrupt physicians writing prescriptions for OxyContin for nonexistent injuries. The patient in this circumstance will often use a portion of the prescribed pills and then sell the rest for a substantial profit.
  • Lortab and is extremely easy to get, a primary reason it is abused, and an estimated 136 million prescriptions for hydrocodone products such as Lortab were dispensed in 2008 alone.

Thornton - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the option of attending a drug rehab program that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to attend one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on other emotional and personal problems they are struggling 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 treatment 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.
