Facts
- When "Methadone Treatment" was first put into use to treat opiate addiction, it was meant to be a 20-day process, although methadone treatment facilities are currently run based on their profitability which keeps individuals on methadone indefinitely.
- The most commonly abused prescription drugs in the U.S. are painkillers, stimulants and central nervous system depressants.
- Methadone maintenance treatment is a multi-billion dollar global industry which is very profitable for drug companies and clinics.
- When someone exceeds the prescribed dosage for Percocet or seek to obtain the drug again after the first time that it has been legitimately prescribed by their physician, they should be aware of the fact that they may have developed an addiction to the drug.
Gays and Lesbians - West BloctonGays and lesbians who develop problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of attending a drug rehabilitation facility that is specifically intended for them. Making the decision to enroll into one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. During rehabilitation recovering addicts not only address their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on 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 aids in resolving issues with isolation, shame, feelings of rejection, discomfort in one's own skin, 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.
