Facts

  • Valium can cause anterograde amnesia (an inability to recall the recent past), which may persist as long as 6 months and may not ever fully return to normal after an individual stops taking the drug.
  • Xanax and other benzodiazepines have been found to share many of the common undesirable side effects of the highly addictive barbiturates that they were intended to replace.
  • When Coca was first introduced the alkaloid cocaine was isolated, and it was used in medicine for its medicinal effects on depression, alcohol and morphine addiction, fatigue, and as a local anesthetic. The result was addiction and dependency to cocaine and its use in medicine was discontinued.
  • One of the reasons Xanax is so addictive is because it has a fairly quick uptake in the system, and individuals who use the drug recreationally like this because they feel the effects of the drug almost instantaneously.

Gays and Lesbians - Sewaren, New Jersey

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug abuse have the choice of going to a drug treatment facility that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to enroll into one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on other emotional and personal issues 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 isolation, shame, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, etc. Once treatment is complete they will be able to feel stronger about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
