Facts

  • Antidepressant withdrawal symptoms and their widespread recurrence, even when individuals step down their dose very gradually, is caused by the receptors in the serotonin system experiencing the drop in serotonin to pre-drug levels as starvation.
  • What a person expects from alcohol consumption often predicts if and when he or she will begin drinking as well as how much he or she will drink throughout young adulthood.
  • When methadone is used to help an individual avoid opiate withdrawal symptoms, doses of methadone are administered every four to six hours and are slowly decreased until withdrawal symptoms have disappeared, then dosages are discontinued. It is likely that the individual will become dependent to Methadone however and the individual should research all options before choosing this one.
  • How many drug withdrawal symptoms an individual experiences, how long they last and how severe they are can vary from person to person.

Gays and Lesbians - Palmdale

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug addiction have the choice of going to a drug rehabilitation program that is specially designed for them. Deciding to attend one of these programs is a very good 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 problems they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery 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 know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
