Facts

  • Studies indicate that PCP use may impede the learning process in teenagers.
  • When a mother takes antidepressants to treat her depression symptoms, the fetus shares the medication with the mother. When the baby is born and deprived of the drug, they are at risk for neonatal withdrawal syndrome.
  • 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.
  • Studies indicate that most of the damage caused by most drugs will eventually heal when the individual stops using them; this is not the case with the abuse of inhalants.

Lakebay - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of going to a drug treatment center that is specially intended for gays or lesbians. Making the decision 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 problems they are struggling 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 helps 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 more secure about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
