Facts

  • Nicotine withdrawal symptoms can include irritability, anxiety, depression, headaches, fatigue, disturbed sleep, increased appetite, and an intense desire for nicotine.
  • Methadone used in opiate maintenance therapy was originally developed to help obliterate withdrawal symptoms and support a healthy lifestyle. However, the effects of withdrawal far exceed that of heroin which causes the individual to become addicted to it instead.
  • Some drug rehabs use group counseling to introduce and utilize peer discussion and to help encourage drug-free lifestyles.
  • The rate of annual use of marijuana had been on a steady decline between 2002 and 2007, then increased from 2008 to 2009 at which time use was slightly higher than the 2002 rate.

Gays and Lesbians - East Berne, NY.

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the choice of going to a drug rehab center that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Choosing to enroll into one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation 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 aids 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 stronger about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
