Facts

  • Doctors argue whether the withdrawal syndrome leaves individuals who take sleeping medication worse than they would be without the drug, but evidence suggests that it often does.
  • 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.
  • Long-time crack users often alienate family and friends, as they tend to become isolated and suspicious.
  • Use of amphetamines can cause death, some of which have occurred as a consequence of burst blood vessels in the brain, heart failure, or very high fever.

Gays and Lesbians - St. Joseph

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the choice of going to a drug rehab center that is specially intended for them. Choosing to attend one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues they are having difficulties 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 shame, Isolation, feelings of rejection, discomfort in one's own skin, etc. Once rehabilitation 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.
