Facts

  • The most recent national and state surveys indicate that inhalant abuse reaches its peak at some point during the sixth through the ninth grades.
  • The excessive release of dopamine and stimulation of the brain and central nervous system's natural reward system as a result of opiate use is what leads to addiction.
  • Serious alcohol withdrawal can produce delirium tremens (DTs) which involves profound confusion, hallucinations, and severe autonomic nervous system over-activity.
  • Vicodin withdrawal symptoms can include cold sweats, diarrhea, insomnia, muscle pain and bone pain, restlessness, involuntary leg movements, vomiting and nausea, severe stomach cramps, excessive sweating, chills, goose bumps, dilated pupils, runny nose and eyes, depression and loss of appetite.

Gays and Lesbians - Jeffersontown

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the choice of attending a drug treatment facility that is specially designed for gays or lesbians. Deciding to attend one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal problems 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 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 know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
