LGBT represents lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are centers which address the particular needs of these clients. Those who are LGBT can often feel alone, misunderstood, and seen as socially unwanted. This may be a quite challenging and painful existence, and leads many LGBT individuals to a life of drug use to numb these feelings. Someone who is LGBT may not feel safe in a traditional rehab center amongst people who aren't experiencing the same challenges they are experiencing of their lives. A LGBT center provides an environment that is free of judgment, where LGBT clients can feel totally comfortable and safe divulging to their peers and rehabilitation counselors problems which have to be resolved so that they can get well. Treatment counselors in a LGBT rehab can help clients fix relationships with their family, in the event their loved ones disagree with their sexual choice as is often the case. This situation is definitely a common trigger for drug abuse, and is also a good example of something which could be resolved in rehab. LGBT clients often just want to be accepted within their lives, and treatment will help them accept themselves and build confidence to be able to lead a healthy life clear of alcohol and drugs.
