Nearby cities to compare

Mental health and substance use together

Depression, anxiety and trauma often show up alongside substance use, and SAMHSA data show higher rates of mental illness among lesbian, gay and bisexual adults. Treating both at once usually works better than treating them separately.

If that sounds familiar, look at LGBTQ dual diagnosis treatment.

Party drugs and chemsex

Some people find their drug use is tied to nightlife, dating apps or sex. That's worth bringing up at intake; it affects triggers and relapse planning. A program with an LGBTQ group is more likely to have heard it before and to talk about it plainly.

Outpatient and IOP options near Wausau

If you need to keep working or caring for family, outpatient care may fit. We don't list an outpatient program within 25 miles of Wausau; the nearest are farther out, and telehealth counseling may help fill the gap. Intensive outpatient programs usually meet several days a week, and partial hospitalization runs most of the day while you sleep at home. See LGBTQ IOP and day programs.
