LGBT means lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are facilities which address the unique needs of these clients. People who are LGBT can often feel alone, not understood, and viewed as socially depraved. This is often a very difficult or painful existence, and leads many LGBT people to a life of substance abuse to alleviate this pain. Someone who is LGBT might not exactly feel safe within a traditional treatment center amongst individuals who aren't experiencing the same challenges they are experiencing in their lives. A LGBT rehab provides an environment which can be totally free of judgment, where LGBT clients can feel completely comfortable and safe revealing to their peers and rehab counselors problems which should be resolved in order to get better. Treatment counselors in a LGBT rehab can help clients mend relationships with their loved ones, in case their loved ones disagree with their sexual choice as is often the case. This situation is certainly a common trigger for abusing drugs, and it is a good example of something will be resolved in treatment. LGBT clients often only want to be accepted in their lives, and treatment will help them accept themselves and create confidence to enable them to lead a healthy life free of alcohol and drugs.
