  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Mortality rates from unintentional drug overdoses have risen consistently since the early 1970's and have reached historic highs over the last decade in the United States.
  • A 2009 survey found that over 70% of Americans who abused prescription pain relievers got them from friends or relatives.
  • When an individual has taken an overdose of an opiate drug, the pupils in their eyes will usually contract and they will display extreme lethargy or possibly lapse into a coma.
  • Drug withdrawal symptoms which persist have been observed in chronic drug users, even after acute withdrawal symptoms have passed which can occur for many months.
  • Educating physicians who prescribe prescription drugs regarding prescription drug abuse is critically important, because even brief interventions by physicians have proven effective in reducing or eliminating prescription drug abuse in individuals who are not yet addicted to them.

Gays and Lesbians can sometimes have distinctive treatment needs when receiving substance abuse rehabilitation. A specialized curriculum and treatment atmosphere which is conducive to the needs of gays and lesbians is available at certain drug and alcohol treatment facilities around the country which understand the unique needs and challenges which gays and lesbians will experience during recovery. Gay and lesbians can achieve full rehabilitation and recovery just like any other individual in treatment, although it can be helpful for gays and lesbians to be in a supportive environment which doesn't judge them or alienate them because of their sexual preference.
