Pittsburgh, PA. - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of going to a drug treatment facility that is specifically intended for gays or lesbians. 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 address other emotional and personal problems they are struggling with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery examine how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved. Counseling and/or therapy aids 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.
