Facts

  • Barbiturates are prescribed as anticonvulsants, sedatives, and general anesthetics but can also induce euphoria, elation, and uninhibited behavior which make them candidates for abuse. If individuals suddenly cease using the barbiturates, symptoms of withdrawal syndrome appear 12-20 hours after the last dose.
  • When the number of first-time users of a substance increases for a number years consecutively, the prevalence rate for that substance has also been shown to increase as well.
  • Of the over 22 million Americans who were classified with substance dependence or abuse in 2010, 2.9 million were dependent to or abused both alcohol and illicit drugs, 4.2 million had dependence or abuse of illicit drugs but not alcohol, and 15.0 million had dependence or abuse of alcohol but not illicit drugs.
  • The illegal use of anabolic steroids is so widespread that it has affected the outcome of many sports contests, including the Olympics.

Stone - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the option of going to a drug treatment program that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Choosing to enroll into one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their problems 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 helps in resolving issues with shame, Isolation, 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 be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
