Facts

  • Parents who don't understand or consider the risks associated with giving prescription drugs to a teenager or other family member for whom the medication was not prescribed are putting these individuals at risk of adverse affects of prescription drug use as well as dependence and addiction.
  • Studies indicate that women in their twenties and early thirties are more likely to drink alcohol than older women.
  • Most states require that a doctor document any methadone which is being dispensed for pain but not for the treatment of drug addiction, and all physicians with appropriate Drug Enforcement Agency registration may prescribe methadone for pain control.
  • When blood alcohol levels rise over an extended period of time, individuals are less likely to experience blackouts, even if they eventually become drunk.

Brutus, Michigan - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug addiction have the choice of going to a drug rehabilitation center that is specifically intended for gays or lesbians. Choosing to attend one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also address other emotional and personal problems they are having difficulties 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 shame, Isolation, feelings of rejection, discomfort in one's own skin, 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.
