Facts
- Some drug rehabs provide targeted risk-reduction counseling for those who are at risk of contracting infectious diseases due to their drug use, which can help individuals modify or change behaviors that place them at risk of contracting or spreading these infectious diseases.
- Studies indicate that drug rehab treatment can cut drug abuse in half, reduce criminal activity up to 80 percent, and reduce arrests as much as 64 percent.
- The acetaminophen component in Vicodin can on its own put the user at risk of overdose.
- Use of barbiturates decreases REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, during which dreaming takes place, and therefore withdrawal often results in sleep disruptions such as nightmares, insomnia, or vivid dreaming.
Gays and Lesbians - EdenGays and lesbians who are having problems with drugs and alcohol have the option of going to a drug treatment facility that is specifically designed for gays or lesbians. Deciding to attend one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also address 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 more secure about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
