Facts

  • Rapid opiate detoxification (ROD) is an emerging treatment option for opiate withdrawal that is reportedly faster and causes less physical discomfort than traditional forms of opiate detoxification.
  • Withdrawal symptoms from hypnotic drugs such as barbiturates and benzodiazepines include shakiness and tremor, nervousness and anxiety, panic, hyperactivity and increased reflexes, rapid heart rate, and epileptic seizures and death in the most severe cases.
  • One treatment approach that is used for managing opiate withdrawal is to treat the symptoms of the withdrawal with appropriate medication. Clondine, an antihypertensive drug, is sometimes used to reduce muscle pain and cramping.
  • The psychological effects of crystal meth are the same as for the regular powder form of methamphetamine, although the side effects of violence and hostility are often more severe.

Babcock, Wisconsin - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of going to a drug rehabilitation center that is specifically intended for gays or lesbians. Deciding to go to one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal problems they are struggling 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 aids in resolving issues with isolation, shame, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, etc. Once treatment is complete they will be able to feel stronger about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
