Facts

  • U.S. emergency room visits involving prescription drug overdoses in the U.S. are now on par with the number of visits from overdoses of illegal drugs, such as cocaine and heroin.
  • PCP users may experience blurred vision, flicking up and down of the eye and drooling.
  • Offering continuing care and monitoring after drug rehab is complete is an important factor in long-term recovery, and programs should be prepared to readily re-admit individuals who have relapsed.
  • Vicodin increases levels of dopamine in the brain, which produces an intense euphoria or what is known as a high when it is abused.

Chetek, Wisconsin - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who develop problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of attending a drug rehabilitation program that is specially designed for gays or lesbians. Making the decision to attend one of these programs is a very good 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 problems they are struggling with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment examine 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 more secure about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
