Facts

  • Methadone users who are pregnant are at risk of premature labor or having a miscarriage if they abruptly stop using the drug, and many women choose to continue using methadone throughout their pregnancy to minimize these risks.
  • The brain registers the psilocybin in magic mushrooms as if it was the natural brain chemical serotonin, and produces its effects by disrupting normal functioning of the serotonin system.
  • Much like other opiate drugs such as heroin and morphine, fentanyl works on areas of the brain that control pain, pleasure and emotions.
  • White is the typical racial profile for a methamphetamine addict; however rates of use of methamphetamine are also extremely high among Native Hawaiians, Pacific Islanders, American Indians and Alaska Natives.

Gays and Lesbians - Roslindale, Massachusetts

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the option of attending a drug rehab facility that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Choosing to go to one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also address other emotional and personal issues 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 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.
