Facts

  • 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.
  • The acetaminophen component in Lortab can on its own cause a fatal overdose. High doses of acetaminophen can cause liver damage, and dosages should never exceed 4000 mg a day. Acetaminophen is metabolized solely by the liver, so there is a risk of fatal overdose due to hepatotoxicity when Lortab is mixed with alcohol.
  • Inhaling propane to get high, a substance found in lighter fluid and hair spray, can cause sudden sniffing death syndrome due to the cardiac effects and serious burn injuries due to the flammability factor.
  • The current increase in the use of GHB adolescents in the United States is associated with increase in reports of GHB-related injuries and deaths.

Yaphank - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the choice of attending a drug treatment center that is specially designed for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to go to one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle 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 helps in resolving issues with shame, Isolation, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, 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.
