Newport, Rhode Island - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the option of going to a drug rehab facility that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to go to one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only deal with 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 examine how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved. Counseling and/or therapy aids 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 more secure about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
