LGBT means lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are programs which address the particular needs of these clients. Individuals who are LGBT can often feel alone, misunderstood, and considered socially depraved. This is often a quite challenging or painful existence, and leads many LGBT people to a lifestyle of drug use to alleviate this pain. Somebody who is LGBT might not exactly feel at ease in a traditional rehabilitation facility amongst folks who aren't experiencing the same challenges they are experiencing within their lives. A LGBT facility offers an environment which is totally free of judgment, where LGBT clients can feel totally safe and comfortable revealing to their peers and treatment counselors issues which should be resolved to enable them to recover. Treatment counselors in a LGBT rehab will help clients repair relationships with their loved ones, in the case their family disagree with their sexual choice as is often the case. This situation is an extremely frequent trigger for drug use, and it is a good example of an issue that can be handled in rehabilitation. LGBT clients often only want to be accepted within their lives, and rehabilitation will help them accept themselves and create confidence in order to lead a wholesome life free of alcohol and drugs.
