Facts

  • It is possible to develop physical dependency and therefore experience withdrawal when someone suddenly stops using caffeine.
  • Out of the nearly 2 million substance abuse treatment admissions reported to State administrative data systems in 2008, heroin and other opiates made up the largest percentage of drug-related admissions (20.0 percent).
  • If an individual going through benzodiazepine withdrawal experiences a seizure, they should be given fluids as soon as he or she is conscious and can drink.
  • Women are unable to metabolize alcohol as efficiently as men because they have less of a liver enzyme (dehydrogenase) that converts alcohol into an inactive substance.

Gays and Lesbians - Scottsville, VA.

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of going to a drug treatment center that is specially intended for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to go to one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on other emotional and personal problems 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 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 be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
