LGBT stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are facilities which address the unique needs of these clients. Individuals who are LGBT can often feel alone, misunderstood, and considered socially depraved. This is sometimes a very difficult or painful existence, and leads many LGBT people to a lifestyle of drug use to alleviate this pain. Someone that is LGBT might not feel comfortable in a traditional treatment program amongst people who aren't experiencing the same problems they may be experiencing within their lives. A LGBT facility provides an environment that is free of judgment, where LGBT clients can be totally comfortable and safe revealing to their peers and rehabilitation counselors issues which need to be resolved so that they can get better. Rehab counselors in a LGBT rehab can help clients repair relationships with their family members, in the event that their family disagree with their sexual choice as is generally the case. This situation is an extremely common trigger for substance abuse, which is an example of something which could be resolved in rehabilitation. LGBT clients often only want to be accepted in their lives, and rehab will help them accept themselves and create confidence in order to lead a healthy life clear of alcohol and drugs.
