Facts

  • Young adults are particularly prone to take part in binge drinking and to suffer repeatedly from withdrawal from alcohol, which may be a key reason for alcohol's harmful effects on the brain.
  • Research indicates that amphetamine use during pregnancy may produce adverse behavioral effects, such as hyper-excitability, in offspring.
  • The current increases in rates of nonmedical use of prescription drugs has resulted in increased emergency room visits, accidental overdoses, and drug rehab treatment admissions for drug addiction.
  • Use of amphetamines can cause an individual to become psychologically dependent on to them so that they are so central to a person's thoughts, emotions, and activities that the need to continue their use becomes a craving or compulsion.

Piney Flats - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drugs and alcohol have the option of attending a drug rehab facility that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Choosing to enroll into one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues they are struggling with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment take a closer look at 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 treatment is complete they will be able to feel stronger about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
