Facts

  • Local and regional law enforcement officials cite that immediate release oxycodone is the drug of choice for pill mills who prescribe prescription opioids willy-nilly to prescription drug addicts.
  • Long-term use of anti-depressants brings about an unique set of withdrawal symptoms when discontinued; much different than the repeated use of an opioid, such as heroin.
  • Methadone's life threatening side effects have occurred even in patients that were just starting to use methadone for pain control, and have also been observed in patients who have switched to methadone after being treated for pain with other strong narcotic pain relievers.
  • White wine and clear liquors such as rum, vodka and gin have fewer toxins and tend to cause less frequent and less severe hangovers than darker varieties of alcohol.

Island City - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the option of attending a drug treatment facility that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Choosing to enroll into one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also address other emotional and personal problems 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, feelings of rejection, discomfort in one's own skin, etc. Once treatment is complete they will be able to feel more secure about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
