Facts

  • 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.
  • The THC in hashish that an individual will need to consume to feel high is about 10 milligrams, of which only a small part eventually reaches the brain.
  • There is no physical withdrawal from Crack or Cocaine as there is with other drugs such as heroin. The withdrawal symptoms are more of a psychological nature rather than physical including an intense hunger, irritability, fatigue, long but disturbed sleep
  • Moderate to high doses of GHB are known to cause nausea to the point of having to vomit.

Tullos, Louisiana - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drug addiction have the option of going to a drug treatment facility that is specifically designed for them. Choosing to attend one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also address other emotional and personal problems they are struggling 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 isolation, shame, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, etc. Once treatment is complete they will be able to feel stronger about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
