Facts
- Nearly 50% of street crimes and 33% of burglaries are associated with alcoholic binge drinkers.
- Methamphetamine causes a release of high levels of dopamine into the areas of the brain that have to do with the feeling of pleasure and reward, which is why the drug is so addictive.
- Opiates affect the limbic system, which controls emotions which can produce feelings of pleasure, relaxation, and contentment.
- After the beginning of alcohol withdrawal, symptoms get worse in 48-72 hours and may continue to plague the individual for weeks.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug addiction have the choice of going to a drug rehabilitation center that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Choosing to enroll into one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on 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 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 know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
