Facts
- Marijuana withdrawal produces both physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms, and it can be difficult to overcome the cravings which often results in relapse.
- Opiates interfere with the transmission of pain messages in the spinal cord, preventing them from reaching the brain and resulting in pain relief.
- Treating drug addicted individuals in a drug rehab program is far less expensive than its alternatives, such as incarcerating these individuals.
- Nearly 8 million individuals in the U.S. who are 12 years of age and older say they have taken crack cocaine at some point in their lives, according to a 2003 survey.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the choice of going to a drug rehabilitation facility that is specially intended for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to attend one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal problems 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 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.
