GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of attending a drug rehabilitation facility that is specially designed for gays or lesbians. Deciding to enroll into one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on 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 aids in resolving issues with shame, Isolation, feelings of rejection, discomfort in one's own skin, etc. Once treatment is complete they will be able to feel stronger about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
