Gays and Lesbians - Heritage Creek

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the option of attending a drug treatment center that is specially intended for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to go to one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only deal with 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 examine 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 stronger about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
