Facts

  • LSD use during pregnancy puts the user and baby at risk, with an increase in the risks of spontaneous abortion and congenital abnormalities.
  • Studies indicate that youth who consume alcohol before the age of 15 are five times more likely to become alcohol dependent than adults who begin drinking at age 21.
  • The human liver combines cocaine and alcohol to produce a third substance, cocaethylene, which intensifies the effects of the drug. Cocaethylene is associated with a greater risk of sudden death than just crack cocaine.
  • 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.

Gays and Lesbians - Bakersfield

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of going to a drug rehab center that is specially designed for gays or lesbians. Choosing to go to one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only deal with their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also address other emotional and personal issues they are struggling with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery 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, feelings of rejection, discomfort in one's own skin, etc. Once rehabilitation is complete they will be able to feel more secure about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
