Facts

  • Long-term use of OxyContin often results in tolerance to the drug, causing the user to take higher doses to achieve the same initial effects. This can happen through both legitimate and illicit use of the drug.
  • The hydrocodone contained in Lortab is an opioid and acts as a pain reliever, and its effects are similar to codeine.
  • Instead of disposing of prescription drugs down toilets or drains, prescription drugs should be disposed of in sealed plastic bags with filler such as coffee grounds or kitty litter.

Stow - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the option of attending a drug rehab program that is specially designed for gays or lesbians. Deciding to go to one of these programs is a very good 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 issues they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery 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, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, 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.
