Being diagnosed with HIV/AIDS may trigger drug use, or dangerous sexual conduct as a result of abusing drugs may have caused to contract the disease. People who have HIV/AIDS, either because of their drug use or as a pre-existing condition prior to their drug use problem, frequently require rehab services tailor-made to meet their particular needs and challenges. Many of these challenges are physical in nature, due to the fact that drug users with HIV/AIDS very rarely take care of themselves and take the proper medicines they need to maintain their health. Because of this, these individuals arrive to rehab in very poor physical shape and this will have to be handled as a priority whilst addressing other crucial issues. Apart from the obvious necessity to provide medical solutions during rehabilitation, people who have HIV/AIDS must also tackle deeper problems which prompted their drug or alcohol use. Usually, people have circumstances in their lives which are purely environmental which may have caused them to use alcohol or drugs, including oppressive circumstances within their lives or damaging relationships. These are the issues which rehab counselors will give attention to as part of HIV/AIDS rehabilitation services.
