Facts

  • Women and low-body-weight males have a lesser capacity to break alcohol down in the same amount of time as a heavier male or female, resulting in higher blood alcohol concentration.
  • Studies indicate that long-term methamphetamine use may result in extensive damage to the serotonin-containing nerve cells in the body, leading to long-term sleep deprivation.
  • The 2010 rate of current illicit drug use among individuals in the U.S. aged 12 or older (8.9%) was similar to the rate in 2009 but higher than the previous year's rate of 8.0%.

Gays and Lesbians - Waterford, MS.

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug addiction have the option of going to a drug rehab program that is specially designed for gays or lesbians. Choosing to attend one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal problems they are having difficulties 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 aids in resolving issues with shame, Isolation, feelings of rejection, discomfort in one's own skin, etc. Once rehabilitation is complete they will be able to feel stronger about who they are and know that drugs and alcohol is not the solution.
