Facts

  • Fevers associated with drug withdrawal must be closely monitored to make sure that they are not the result of an underlying infection, which should be treated immediately.
  • When a prescription medication is stopped, withdrawal from the drug causes a return of the original symptom the medication was used for, often in a much worse degree.
  • Persons with HIV who consume alcohol and fail to take their medications or do not take them correctly, it increases the likelihood that the virus will become resistant to any form of therapy.
  • One study in a state prison found that prisoners who participated in a drug rehab program and continued to receive treatment in a work-release program after prison were 70 percent less likely than nonparticipants to return to drug use and be re-arrested.

Gays and Lesbians - Avondale Estates, Georgia

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drugs and alcohol have the option of going to a drug treatment center that is specifically designed for them. Making the decision to enroll into one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their problems 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 aids 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 know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
