Haskell, Oklahoma - Gays and LesbiansGays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the option of attending a drug rehabilitation center that is specially intended for gays or lesbians. Deciding to go to one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only deal with their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment examine how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved.
