Facts

  • 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.
  • Marijuana use and early use of other illicit drugs during adolescence make an individual more likely to continue using marijuana in their mid-30s or beyond.
  • The Drug Abuse Warning Network lists opiates among the four most frequently mentioned drugs reported in drug-related death cases.
  • It has been proven that drug rehab reduces costs associated with health and social costs of addiction, by far more than the cost of the treatment itself.

Avoca, NY. - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the choice of going to a drug treatment center that is specially intended 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 address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also address other emotional and personal problems they are struggling with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery examine how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved. Counseling and/or therapy aids 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 be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
