Facts

  • Side effects associated with Xanax can range from drowsiness, fatigue, headache, and clumsiness to slurred speech, vision problems and a variety of changes in an individual's behavior.
  • One treatment approach that is used for managing opiate withdrawal is to treat the symptoms of the withdrawal with appropriate medication. Clondine, an antihypertensive drug, is sometimes used to reduce muscle pain and cramping.
  • When someone has taken a particularly large dose of opiates they may not be able to be awakened, their pupils become smaller, and their skin becomes cold, moist, and bluish in color. Breathing slows and death can occur.
  • Studies indicate that most inhalants are extremely toxic and that "huffing" can often have fatal consequences.

Oxnard - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the option of attending a drug rehab center 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 deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal problems they are struggling 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 isolation, shame, 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.
