Facts
- Individuals who use corticosteroids or cortisone (an anti-inflammatory) can develop dependence to these drugs and may experience withdrawal syndrome if they suddenly stop using them.
- Methamphetamine use is associated with increased numbers of HIV infections.
- Babies of heroin addicts are born dependent on the drug and must go through withdrawal as their first task in life.
- Physical addiction to alcohol occurs in consistently heavy drinkers. Since their bodies have adapted to the presence of alcohol, they suffer alcohol addiction withdrawal symptoms if they suddenly stop drinking.
Gays and Lesbians - HarrisonGays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the option of attending a drug treatment center that is specifically designed for them. Choosing to enroll into one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues 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.
