Facts

  • The brains of Ecstasy users who experience serotonin depletion because of their Ecstasy will take a significant amount of time to restore the level of serotonin needed to perform important physiological and psychological functions.
  • Recent studies report that stress appears to increase the oxidative damage caused by Ecstasy in the brain.
  • In a recent study, the percentage of persons with inhalant dependence reporting clinically significant inhalant withdrawal symptoms was almost equal to the percentage of persons with cocaine dependence reporting clinically significant cocaine withdrawal symptoms.
  • Drug or alcohol withdrawal symptoms may be even more dramatic when these substances have masked prolonged malnutrition, disease, chronic pain, or sleep deprivation.

Gays and Lesbians - Browns Summit

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the option of attending a drug rehabilitation center that is specifically 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 handle other emotional and personal problems 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, 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 know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
