Facts

  • Cocaine withdrawal occurs because the body compensates for the heightened euphoria by blocking pleasure centers. This causes depression and stress and other symptoms.
  • Smoking or injecting methamphetamine creates an intense rush or high almost immediately, while snorting the drug can cause about a 5 minute delay.
  • Long-term use of OxyContin often results in tolerance to the drug, causing the user to take higher doses to achieve the same initial effects. This can happen through both legitimate and illicit use of the drug.
  • The most profound contributing factor of inhalant abuse is peer pressure.

Gays and Lesbians - Dawsonville, Georgia

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drugs and alcohol have the option of attending a drug rehab program that is specifically designed for them. Making the decision to enroll into one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment 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 rehabilitation is complete they will be able to feel stronger about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
