Hurstbourne Acres - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug addiction have the option of attending a drug treatment facility that is specially intended for them. Deciding to enroll into one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only deal with their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on other emotional and personal issues they are struggling with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment examine how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved. Counseling and/or therapy helps 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.
