Facts

  • Marijuana is produced in practically every region of the world, and is also the most produced illicit drug in the world.
  • Cocaine withdrawal occurs because the body compensates for the heightened euphoria by blocking pleasure centers. This causes depression and stress and other symptoms.
  • When someone drunks alcohol, it goes into their bloodstream where it affects the central nervous system (the brain and spinal cord), which controls virtually all body functions.
  • Heroin withdrawal is not fatal for healthy adults, but can be fatal to the fetus of a pregnant addict.

Gays and Lesbians - Chicago Ridge

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the option of attending a drug treatment program that is specially intended for them. Choosing to attend one of these programs is a great 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 recovery take a closer look at 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 treatment is complete they will be able to feel stronger about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
