Facts
- Individuals who abuse drugs may be more vulnerable to infection, and both drug effects and withdrawal symptoms may mask the need for urgent treatment for another condition.
- Studies indicate that there is a higher prevalence of methamphetamine use among gay males than among the general population in the United States.
- No single drug rehab solution is appropriate for every person.
- When an individual is experiencing the withdrawal symptoms due to a lack of heroin or other opiates, this is commonly referred to as going "cold turkey".
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the option of going to a drug rehabilitation center that is specially intended for them. Deciding to attend one of these programs is an excellent first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal issues they are struggling 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 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.
