Why LGBTQ-specific care can matter

Research summarized by the National Institute on Drug Abuse finds that sexual and gender minority people report higher rates of substance use and substance use disorders than the general population. Researchers often explain the gap with minority stress: the extra, ongoing strain of stigma, discrimination and having to stay on guard.

A program with an LGBTQ group gives you a place to talk about those pressures with people who share them, instead of working around them.

How drug rehab works

Good drug rehab treats the whole picture: the drug, any mental health conditions, physical health and the social life around use. If you use more than one substance, tell the program so the plan covers all of them.
