Facts

  • The kidneys and lungs remove about 10% of the alcohol in the urine and breath, making the breathalyzer test a valid tool to measure a person's blood alcohol level.
  • Magic mushrooms are not typically smoked, because intense heat quickly destroys the psychoactive elements in them.
  • Snorting methamphetamine may and often does irritate the nasal passages.
  • Opiates such as heroin convert to morphine in the body which then activates opiate receptors located throughout the brain and central nervous system, including within the reward system.

Belmond, IA. - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drugs and alcohol have the option of attending a drug rehabilitation center that is specially intended for gays or lesbians. Deciding to enroll into one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on 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 helps in resolving issues with shame, Isolation, 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 be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
