Facts
- Many addicted individuals misuse their outpatient methadone maintenance program, and take less than a blocking dose of 80 mg. so that they will be able to "feel it" if they combine their methadone dose with other drugs such as heroin.
- When a mother takes antidepressants to treat her depression symptoms, the fetus shares the medication with the mother. When the baby is born and deprived of the drug, they are at risk for neonatal withdrawal syndrome.
- Once Bath Salts have been made illegal in a state, possessing and distributing these products becomes a federal offense.
- Withdrawal from certain drugs such as benzodiazepines or alcohol can be fatal and therefore the abrupt discontinuation of any type of drug is not recommended.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the choice of attending a drug rehabilitation center that is specifically intended for gays or lesbians. Choosing to attend one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on 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, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, etc. Once rehabilitation is complete they will be able to feel more secure about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
