Facts

  • The abuse of prescription drugs such as OxyContin is responsible for a great deal of health care fraud, such as corrupt physicians writing prescriptions for OxyContin for nonexistent injuries. The patient in this circumstance will often use a portion of the prescribed pills and then sell the rest for a substantial profit.
  • The hydrocodone component in Lortab alone can cause an overdose, and is known to cause respiratory depression and other severe adverse reactions including heart failure, heart attack, pulmonary failure, liver or kidney failure, jaundice, amnesia, seizures, blackouts, and coma.
  • Males are more prone to abuse of benzodiazepines such as Valium than females.
  • Taking magic mushrooms with certain MAOI drugs can dramatically increase the effects of the experience.

Gays and Lesbians - Barney

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the option of going to a drug rehab facility that is specially intended for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to enroll into 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 work on 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.
