Facts

  • Barbiturates are prescribed as anticonvulsants, sedatives, and general anesthetics but can also induce euphoria, elation, and uninhibited behavior which make them candidates for abuse. If individuals suddenly cease using the barbiturates, symptoms of withdrawal syndrome appear 12-20 hours after the last dose.
  • The effects of methadone last longer than any other morphine-based narcotic.
  • People infected with HIV are nearly twice as likely to abuse alcohol as people in the general population who are not infected with the disease.
  • Out of the nearly 2 million substance abuse treatment admissions reported to State administrative data systems in 2008, heroin and other opiates made up the largest percentage of drug-related admissions (20.0 percent).

Fulks Run, VA. - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the option of going to a drug rehabilitation program that is specifically intended for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to attend one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also address other emotional and personal problems they are struggling with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery examine how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved. Counseling and/or therapy aids in resolving issues with shame, Isolation, 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.
