LGBT means lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are programs which address the particular needs of these clients. People who are LGBT can feel alone, misunderstood, and considered socially unwanted. This is sometimes a very hard or painful way to live, and leads many LGBT people to a life of drug abuse to numb this pain. Someone who is LGBT may not feel at ease within a traditional rehab program amongst individuals who aren't experiencing the same problems they are experiencing of their lives. A LGBT facility offers an environment which is free of judgment, where LGBT clients can be completely comfortable and safe revealing to their peers and rehabilitation counselors issues which should be handled in order to get well. Treatment counselors in a LGBT rehab can help clients fix relationships with their family members, in the event their family disagree with their sexual choice as is often the case. This situation is definitely a frequent trigger for drug use, and is an example of an issue that will be handled in treatment. 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 free from drugs and alcohol.
