  • The signs and symptoms of a Lortab overdose are similar to that of a heroin overdose, and the individual will become extremely sleepy and may struggle to stay conscious.

Afton - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of attending a drug rehabilitation facility that is specially designed for gays or lesbians. Deciding 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 work on 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, 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 know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
