Facts

  • Xanax and other benzodiazepines have been found to share many of the common undesirable side effects of the highly addictive barbiturates that they were intended to replace.
  • When someone has taken a particularly large dose of opiates they may not be able to be awakened, their pupils become smaller, and their skin becomes cold, moist, and bluish in color. Breathing slows and death can occur.
  • Opiate injection caused the users to experience a more effective and timely high, which produces an intense feeling of pleasure followed by a sense of well-being and a calm drowsiness.
  • Physical drug withdrawal affects organ systems in the body such as the cardiovascular system and the nervous system.

Gays and Lesbians - De Kalb, Mississippi

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the choice of going to a drug rehabilitation program that is specially intended for gays or lesbians. Deciding to attend one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only deal with their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery 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 rehabilitation is complete they will be able to feel more secure about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
