GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the option of going to a drug treatment center that is specifically designed for them. Deciding to attend one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues 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 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 know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
