Facts

  • Side effects associated with methadone can include constipation, nausea, sedation, vertigo, and edema.
  • Rapid opiate detoxification to treat opiate withdrawal can be performed in a hospital or private clinic setting using a drug such as Naltrexone, an opiate antagonist that blocks opiate receptors and reverses the effects of opiates. Clonidine is administered at the same time to ease the symptoms of withdrawal.
  • Nearly 40% of individuals seeking detox or substance abuse treatment as part of an emergency room visit in 2009 were admitted to the hospital.
  • The sleeping pill Ambien seems to cause less severe withdrawal symptoms than the barbiturates or benzodiazepines.

New Egypt, NJ. - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug addiction have the option of attending a drug rehabilitation facility that is specifically designed 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 address their issues 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 aids 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.
