Facts

  • One person may have a "bad trip" on a low dose of LSD, while someone else who uses the drug often can take a high dose and get through it without distress.
  • When methadone is used to help an individual avoid opiate withdrawal symptoms, doses of methadone are administered every four to six hours and are slowly decreased until withdrawal symptoms have disappeared, then dosages are discontinued. It is likely that the individual will become dependent to Methadone however and the individual should research all options before choosing this one.
  • Some methamphetamine users will experience a mental depression associated with withdrawal that lasts longer than the acute symptoms and is more severe than that of cocaine withdrawal.
  • PCP's effects can vary from person to person and dose to dose, mainly because of significant variations in amount and composition of active compounds.

Kersey, Pennsylvania - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the option of going to a drug treatment center that is specially intended for gays or lesbians. Deciding to go to one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery take a closer look at 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.
