Facts

  • Opiate addicted individuals need higher and higher amounts of opiates in order to prevent withdrawal symptoms and to maintain their feelings of euphoria.
  • The substances which currently have the highest levels of past year dependence or abuse among Americans are marijuana (4.5 million), pain relievers (1.9 million), and cocaine (1.0 million).
  • Many people use Valium and other benzodiazepines, which account for twenty percent of the total number of prescriptions that are written for controlled substances in the United States each year.
  • Use of Valium can become addictive because the individual can begin to rely too much on the drug for its effects, which produces an almost immediate calming effect throughout the body and mind.

Gays and Lesbians - Dalton, Pennsylvania

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the option of attending a drug treatment program that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Deciding to go to one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on other emotional and personal issues they are struggling 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 shame, Isolation, 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 know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
