Facts

  • Contrary to popular belief that marijuana is not addictive, long-term marijuana users will typically experience withdrawal when they stop using the drug.
  • Long-term use of OxyContin often results in tolerance to the drug, causing the user to take higher doses to achieve the same initial effects. This can happen through both legitimate and illicit use of the drug.
  • The Police Chief in Pulaski, Virginia reports that approximately 90 percent of all thefts, burglaries, and shoplifting incidents in the area were linked to the OxyContin trade.
  • The more you consume alcohol every day, the more likely you are to develop alcohol withdrawal symptoms when you stop drinking.

North Weymouth, MA. - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the choice of going to a drug treatment program that is specifically designed for them. Making the decision to attend one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also address other emotional and personal problems 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 aids in resolving issues with shame, Isolation, feelings of rejection, discomfort in one's own skin, etc. Once rehabilitation 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.
