Drug Rehab For Me
As a gay man it was not so easy to locate a drug rehab that I felt comfortable with. All the drug rehabs said they could provide me with good care and told me that sexuality didn’t matter. Rehab was rehab and people were people. I would have liked to see them say that without smiling.
I have been in rehab before and know that what they said is true, but until you have had a therapist that is homophobic you haven’t lived. Here was this guy saying he would help me, when he was scared to death of who I was. He was telling me to be honest, develop trust and not to be judgemental. Child please!
Take it from me and do your homework. Not all drug rehabs are the same. They all have their own way of doing things and you have to find one that works for you. Make sure the rehab has a staff that knows how to deal with our issues and doesn’t have issues with us. don’t worry, I finially found a rehab with a program that understood my needs and really treated me as an equal. I hope you do too.
