Facts

  • Men are inclined to consume alcohol in larger amounts than women. Although women absorb more alcohol, and take longer to break it down and remove it from their bodies.
  • Drug withdrawal symptoms from benzodiazepines can be more difficult than withdrawing from opioids.
  • The rate of alcohol absorption in the body depends on the concentration of the alcohol being consumed. For example, vodka is absorbed faster than beer, because vodka has a higher alcohol concentration.
  • Studies indicate that alcoholism is more strongly related to child abuse than are other disorders, such as parental depression.

Venus - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the choice of going to a drug treatment facility that is specially intended for gays or lesbians. Deciding to enroll into one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also address other emotional and personal problems they are struggling 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 shame, Isolation, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, etc. Once rehabilitation 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.
