Facts
- The route of administration of a drug, whether intravenous, intramuscular, oral or otherwise, can sometimes play a role in determining the severity of withdrawal symptoms.
- The effects of fentanyl last only a very short time, so regular users can become addicted very quickly.
- If someone with benzodiazepine withdrawal is experiencing a seizure, they should immediately seek medical attention.
- Methamphetamine use can cause impotence while also increasing sexual drive, and some methamphetamine users may use erectile dysfunction medications in an attempt to remedy this.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the choice of going to a drug rehab center that is specifically intended for them. Deciding to enroll into one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on 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 helps in resolving issues with isolation, shame, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, etc. Once treatment is complete they will be able to feel more secure about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
