Facts

  • Methadone can be prescribed by a doctor for pain relief, but can only be prescribed for addiction treatment by physicians who liaise with methadone clinics.
  • Treatment for stimulant withdrawal may include a regimen of drugs that increase neurotransmitter production, due to the depression and dysphoria caused by sudden cessation of use.
  • Valium causes a similar change in the brain's reward-inducing dopamine cells as a dose of alcohol, morphine, amphetamine or cocaine.
  • Moderate use of alcohol (2-3 drinks) can cause loss of motor coordination for up to 12 to 18 hours following alcohol consumption.

Hampton Falls, NH. - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of going to a drug treatment program that is specifically intended 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 problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal problems they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery 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, feelings of rejection, discomfort in one's own skin, 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.
