Facts

  • Methadone withdrawal can be even more severe than morphine or heroin withdrawal and can last for several weeks or more.
  • Marijuana users entering substance abuse treatment in the U.S. will typically only have a high school level education.
  • The human body can only metabolize a certain amount of alcohol every hour, no matter how much alcohol is consumed at any given time, a process which can vary depending on a range of factors, including liver size and body mass.
  • PCP affects the levels of dopamine in the brain, a natural chemical in the body which is responsible for the euphoria and "rush" associated with many abused drugs.

Fort Covington - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the option of going to a drug treatment facility that is specially designed for gays or lesbians. Deciding to go to one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also address 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 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 be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
