Facts

  • While treating opiate withdrawal through rapid opiate detoxification, the individual is anesthetized throughout the three to four hour procedure, and withdrawal occurs while the patient sleeps.
  • PCP is often added is to as LSD or methamphetamine, and sometimes users are unaware of this and may take a lethal dose.
  • Prescription opioids can produce drowsiness, constipation and, depending on amount taken, depressed breathing.
  • Because central nervous system depressants work by slowing the brain's activity, when an individual stops taking the drug this activity can rebound and as part of withdrawal seizures can occur.

Stanton - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug addiction have the choice of going to a drug rehab program that is specifically intended for them. Making the decision to go to one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on other emotional and personal issues they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery 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 rehabilitation is complete they will be able to feel stronger about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
