Sandwich - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug addiction have the option of going to a drug rehabilitation center that is specifically designed for them. Making the decision to attend one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation 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 treatment is complete they will be able to feel stronger about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
