Facts
- Heroin withdrawal is not fatal for healthy adults, but can be fatal to the fetus of a pregnant addict.
- Over 6% of employees who hold full time jobs report that they are involved in alcohol abuse, drinking five or more drinks per event or on five or more days in the previous 30 days.
- Instances of alcohol-related admissions to acute care hospitals for older Americans are similar to those for heart attacks.
- Pre-school aged children of alcoholics are more likely to exhibit poorer language and reasoning skills than their peers whose parents were not alcoholics, mainly due to the lower quality of stimulation present in the home of children of alcoholics.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of attending a drug rehab program that is specially designed for them. Choosing to attend one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment examine 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 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.
