Facts

  • Studies show that as individual ages, they expect more benefits from alcohol consumption and become less convinced of the risks.
  • The high caused by inhalants is achieved due to the lack of oxygen that reaches the brain when an individual inhales fumes or propellants to get high; this term is also referred to as "huffing".
  • The effects of methadone subside long before the drug is out of the person's system; a factor which can make excessive use of the drug extremely risky.
  • Outpatient drug rehab options can vary in terms of treatment approach and intensity of treatment available, an option that is sometimes suitable for individuals who need to maintain a job or other social commitment.

Gays and Lesbians - Mckeesport, PA.

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drugs and alcohol have the option of attending a drug rehabilitation facility that is specially intended for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to attend one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also address 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 aids in resolving issues with shame, Isolation, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, etc. Once rehabilitation is complete they will be able to feel more secure about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
