- The withdrawal symptoms with barbiturates and benzodiazepines can be worse than withdrawal from heroin.
- Prenatal exposure to crack often results in premature birth and crack babies tend to be smaller than other babies.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drugs and alcohol have the option of attending a drug treatment program that is specially designed for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to attend one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on other emotional and personal issues they are struggling 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, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, 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.
