Family, rejection and recovery
Many LGBTQ people carry experiences of family rejection or strained relationships into treatment. Research on LGBTQ young people has linked family rejection with higher rates of substance use and depression, while family acceptance is protective.
Good programs make room for chosen family and offer family sessions when they help. Our guide on family rejection and recovery covers this in more depth.
Party drugs and chemsex
If use is tied to particular places, people or apps, part of treatment is building a social life that doesn't revolve around them. LGBTQ recovery meetings and community groups can help.

Call 866-825-1171Frequently asked questions
What does it mean that a program reports an LGBTQ program?
Each listed facility told SAMHSA's national treatment survey that it offers a program or group specifically for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer clients. It's self-reported, so ask the program how the group works and how often it meets.
Can I bring my partner or chosen family into treatment?
Many programs offer family sessions and let you define who counts as family. Ask at intake whether partners and chosen family can take part.
Is medication used for drug addiction?
For opioid use disorder, yes: buprenorphine, methadone and naltrexone are standard treatments. For stimulants, no medication is FDA-approved, so therapy does the work.
Is there LGBTQ drug rehab inside Athens?
We don't list one inside Athens itself, but the closest programs within driving distance are listed on this page.
