Lesbian Addiction Treatment
I looked long and hard to find an addiction treatment center or alcohol program that specialized in treating lesbians. First they wanted to send me to an all women’s addiction treatment program, which was like giving candy to a baby. They didn’t even have a lesbian addiction program. My family just assumed, they treated women, so they could treat me. I told them that I would go to a gay addiction program before I went there. I wanted to get better and I didn’t need any distractions.
I finially found an addiction treatment program through recovery connection. They referred me to a program that had a component specifically for gays and lesbians. From the moment I walked in those doors, I felt at home. I know the whole world isn’t gay ( unfortunately) but my recovery had to start somewhere I felt safe.
