Facts

  • The illicit diversion use of prescription drugs has increased dramatically since the 1990s and has been accompanied by increased emergency room visits, accidental poisonings, and drug rehab admissions for addiction.
  • When group therapy is offered along with individualized drug counseling in drug rehab, positive outcomes are achieved.
  • Sudden cessation of long term use of morphine by long term heavily dependent users may be fatal, although morphine withdrawal is considered to be less dangerous than alcohol withdrawal.

Town Creek, Alabama - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the option of going to a drug rehabilitation center 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. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on other emotional and personal problems 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 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.
