  • Methadone has always been known as the replacement drug for people that are addicted to opiates such as heroin, morphine and other narcotics, and is commonly used as part of methadone maintenance treatment.

Wise - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drug abuse have the choice of going to a drug rehabilitation center that is specifically designed for them. Making the decision to attend one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also work on other emotional and personal issues they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment examine how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved. Counseling and/or therapy helps in resolving issues with shame, Isolation, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, etc. Once treatment is complete they will be able to feel stronger about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
