Facts

  • Studies with lab animals have proven that animals will work more persistently at pressing a bar for cocaine than for any drug, including opiates.
  • Physical dependence to amphetamine occurs when the body has adapted to the presence of these drugs, and withdrawal symptoms occur if its use is stopped abruptly.
  • Marijuana use and early use of other illicit drugs during adolescence make an individual more likely to continue using marijuana in their mid-30s or beyond.
  • Most opiate addicted individuals are no longer capable of holding down a job which often leads to loss of health insurance coverage. Diseases and conditions that develop as a result of opiate addiction are therefore often paid for through public funds because these individuals cannot pay for their own treatment.

Washington - Gays and Lesbians

Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drugs and alcohol have the choice of attending a drug rehab program that is specially intended for gays or lesbians. Choosing to attend one of these programs is a very good first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only deal with their problems with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal problems they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in recovery examine how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved. Counseling and/or therapy helps in resolving issues with shame, Isolation, 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 be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
