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.
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.
Residential or outpatient?
Residential care makes sense when use is daily, when detox needs medical support, or when home isn't a safe or stable place to recover. Outpatient and intensive outpatient programs fit when you have a stable place to live and want to keep working.
Prefer to live at home during treatment?
We list 12 programs within 25 miles of Waggaman that report intensive outpatient, day treatment or regular outpatient services. Intensive outpatient and partial hospitalization programs let you attend treatment during the day or evening and go home afterward.
