Gays and Lesbians - Athol, Kansas

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug addiction have the option of going to a drug rehabilitation center that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Choosing to enroll into one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also address other emotional and personal issues 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, 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.
