Facts

  • Rapid opiate detoxification to treat opiate withdrawal can be performed in a hospital or private clinic setting using a drug such as Naltrexone, an opiate antagonist that blocks opiate receptors and reverses the effects of opiates. Clonidine is administered at the same time to ease the symptoms of withdrawal.
  • Inhaling methylene chloride to get high, a chemical commonly found in degreasers, can cause a reduction of oxygen and changes to the heart muscle and irregular heartbeat.
  • Smoking crack sends large quantities of the drug to the lungs, which creates an immediate and intense euphoric effect.
  • Someone going through crack withdrawal typically turns to other substances like alcohol, sedatives, hypnotics, or anti-anxiety medications to treat their symptoms.

Gays and Lesbians - Weber City, VA.

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the option of attending a drug rehab facility that is specifically designed for them. Choosing to enroll into one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on other emotional and personal issues 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 helps in resolving issues with isolation, shame, 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.
