Holistic Drug Treatment Center for the GLBT

jhuttner — Wed, 23 Apr 2008 22:25:29 +0000

I have found it hard to find a holistic drug treatment center that has the ability or staff to comfortably treat gay men and women. I guess I shouldn’t say the ability, but that has a staff trained. People you can just open up a holistic drug treatment center and effectively treat everyone. Well that just isn’t true. No one drug treatment program is right for everyone and the same holds true for a holistic drug treatment program.

Without seeming jaded, not everyone working in a holistic drug treatment center�is comfortable treating the GLBT, nor the issues affecting us. We have to deal with sexual orientation, coming out and internalized homophobia. Issues not everyone is familar with. It is my opiniion that if a drug treatment center is not expert in providing a particular type of holistic drug treatment, just refer the person to an appropriate holistic treatment program.

For those of yo who are interested, there is a holistic drug treatment program that is focused on the needs of the GLBT.�The drug treatment center is called, Freedom Rings……

Holistic Alcohol Rehabilitation Worked For Me

jhuttner — Mon, 21 Apr 2008 22:48:43 +0000

I drank and used drugs for many years and to say I needed alcohol rehabilitation was putting it mildly. The problem was I had been in alcohol rehabilitation before and something just didn’t click. As the years went by, I began to hear about holistic alcohol rehabs, which incorporated additional teaching from the holistic world, so I took a look at holistic alcohol rehabilitation programs. I should say, my wife looked at holistic alcohol rehabs. I was too drunk and high most of the time.

When I heard these holistic alcohol rehabilitation programs had holistic services such as meditation, yoga etc. I asdi well at least it is different and went on to holistic alcohol rehab. While I didn’t become serene or able to touch my nose to the floor, I did feel more focused. When I left the holistic rehab, I felt more well rounded and ready for recovery. The holistic alcohol rehabilitation program focused on every aspect of my recovery. I would reccomend it to anybody.

Being Gay and My Valium Addiction

bgreene — Tue, 15 Apr 2008 02:15:24 +0000

I had spent so many years being gay and denying it my life was just becoming unmanageable. The stress was unbearable and I just felt so anxious all the time. Then I was introduced to valium, which an hour after I took it I felt so much more relaxed. So I figured if I valium made me feel this good then two valium should make me feel better. Hence, the beginning of my valium addiction. It wasn’t long in the early stages of my valium addiction that I began mixing other drugs into the picture, but only to enhance an already susbstantial valium addiction.

Valium Addiction Treatment

My valium addiction got me to the point where I couldn’t even function. Forgt about my “gay issues”, I was a mess. My friend finally got me some valium addiction treatment in a residential treatment center. This addiction treatment for valium addiction was rough. I was so sick for what seemed like weeks I swore that I was done with valium, so I left valium addiction treatment early. I went right to the gay bars and before I knew it I was mixing valium with alcohol which landed me in the ER, with a transfer right back to the addicton treatment center for my valium addiction. This time I stayed in the addiction treatment center. I knew the addiction treatment center could help me with my valium addiction and they did.

How many times have you spoken to an addiction program only to hear the same old thing regarding the services they provide. Every addiction program seems to provide the same therapy to the general population. The addiction program talks of gret success rates and an addiction program staff that is great.

while this addiction program provides similar addiction services as other addiction programs, the addiction program specializes in the treatment of one population and does it well. The addiction program called Freedom Rings treats the gay and lesbian population in a gay affirming atmosphere while�incorporating the heterosexual community into the mix.

My Heroin Addiction Recovery

jhuttner — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 01:17:41 +0000

After growing up in Baltimore, Maryland and spending some time in downtown Baltimore, I realized there was more to life than living in the Maryland ssuburbs. I started off snorting cocaine with friends and then one day I met someone downtown who introduced me to heroin. Heroin was great and so was cocaine, so I used them both together for a while (8ball) Well before long I had a cocaine addiction and heroin addiction and was in trouble. My heroin addiction led me to spending more time in Baltimore city as that is where the heroin was. Then one day, I was arrested for selling heroin and was put in jail. While in the Baltimore jail my heroin addiction�was kicking my butt. I was so sick, I swore if I ever got out I would never use again.

Heroin Addiction Recovery

�I tried beating my heroin addiction by myself and it didn’t work. My addiction to heroin was just too strong so I left Maryland�for heroin addiction recovery. My first week ther was tough and my recovery from heroin addiction seemed like a dream rather than reality. Though others had experienced recovery from their heroin addiction I just didn’t see it. �I felt like my heroin addiction had just taken too much from me. That is when my heroin addiction recovery started to happen. I spent five weeks fighting for my recovery from heroin addiction and it has happened. I�no longer have an addiction to heroin and recovery is grand. I decided not to return to Baltimore, Maryland as I didn’t feel I would be able to say away from the heroin if I moved back there. Find yourself a addiction recovery program and go!

My message is never give up. Recovery from a heroin addiction is always possible if you put recovery first.�My best to all you guys back in the grand old state f Maryland.

Holistic Addiction Treatment Program for the LGBT

jhuttner — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 12:16:21 +0000

After being in several addiction treatment programs, meeting with relase each time, I finially decided to try a holistic addiction treatment program, which was gay friendly. Think that was hard to find. It was, but I did. All I wanted in a gay friendly addiction treatment program was a treatment program specializing n “gay issues” because I still was not comfortable with my sexuality. The holistic addiction treatment program was easier.

Finially, when I was about to give up I found a holistic addiction treatment program, with an addiction treatment compoent called Freedom Rings. It was perfect for me. It was an all gay addiction treatment program and seemed to provide just the right holistic services.

Freedom Rings, the holistic addiction treatment program for the LGBT is located in Jacksonville, Florida and has treated thousands of members from the LGBT community. I was one of them and I have been clean for three years. After participating in the holistic treatment in the program, I still practice yoga and meditation and have incorporated balance into my llife. I would reccomend a holistic addiction treatment program for anyone, not just the gay community.

By the way, when�I am�speaking about an addiction treatment program I mean a residential addiction treatment program with holistic services. If you are anything like me, ther was no way an outpatient holistic addiction treatment would have helped. I couldn’t stop using much less practice yoga. Now that is funny!�
