      Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment


      Is substance abuse higher in the lgbtq+ community?

      Yes, studies have indicated that rates of substance use and substance use disorders are indeed higher in the LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and others) community compared to the general population. This disparity is believed to be related to a variety of factors, including the stress and stigma associated with identifying as LGBTQ+.

      Here's a closer look at some of the related factors and statistics:

      • Minority Stress: Minority stress refers to the chronic stress faced by members of a marginalized group, such as the LGBTQ+ community. This includes dealing with prejudice, societal stigma, discrimination, and the process of coming out. This added stress can increase the risk of substance use as a coping mechanism.
      • Mental Health: There are higher rates of mental health disorders, such as depression and anxiety, among LGBTQ+ individuals, often as a result of minority stress. Mental health disorders are a known risk factor for substance use and substance use disorders.
      • Social Environment: Substance use is often more normalized in some LGBTQ+ social settings, such as bars and clubs, which can increase the likelihood of substance use and addiction.
      • Access to Care: LGBTQ+ individuals may face barriers to receiving substance use treatment, such as discrimination, lack of LGBTQ+ inclusive treatment programs, and fear of stigma.

      According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), adults who identify as lesbian, gay, or bisexual were more than twice as likely as heterosexual adults to have used illicit drugs in the past year. Transgender individuals also experience higher rates of substance use and substance use disorders compared to their cisgender peers.

      It is important to note that while substance use is a significant issue within the LGBTQ+ community, not all individuals within this community use substances or struggle with substance use disorders. A comprehensive, culturally competent approach is needed to address substance use in the LGBTQ+ community, which includes providing LGBTQ+ inclusive prevention and treatment programs, addressing the underlying issues like discrimination and stigma, and improving access to mental health care.


      What is the first step I must take to get sober?

      The journey to sobriety begins with recognizing that there's a problem and deciding to make a change. Here are the steps you might consider:

      Admitting the Problem: The first step towards getting sober is acknowledging that your substance use is causing problems in your life and that you need to make a change. This step can be challenging, as it requires honesty and self-reflection.

      Seeking Help: Once you've recognized the problem, the next step is to reach out for help. This could involve talking to a trusted friend or family member, a healthcare provider, or a mental health professional. They can offer support and guidance as you navigate your next steps.

      Assessment and Diagnosis: A healthcare professional, such as a doctor or a counselor specializing in addiction, can provide a comprehensive evaluation to understand the extent of your substance use and any co-occurring mental health conditions. This assessment will help guide your treatment plan.

      Detoxification: If you're physically dependent on a substance, medically supervised detoxification may be necessary. This process manages the acute physical symptoms of withdrawal that occur when you stop taking the substance.

      Treatment Plan: Based on your assessment, a personalized treatment plan will be created. This could involve a combination of individual counseling, group therapy, medication-assisted treatment, and supportive care. Treatment might be provided in various settings, including inpatient rehab, outpatient clinics, or through telehealth services.

      Support Networks: Building a strong support network is crucial for maintaining sobriety. This could include sober friends and family, support groups like Alcoholics Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous, and ongoing therapy or counseling.

      Ongoing Recovery and Maintenance: Sobriety is a lifelong journey. Once you've completed a treatment program, it's important to have a plan in place to maintain your sobriety. This might involve ongoing therapy, regular attendance at support group meetings, and self-care practices to manage stress.

      Remember, it's okay to ask for help, and it's never too late to start the journey to recovery. Everyone's path to sobriety is different, and what works best will depend on your individual circumstances, including the nature of your substance use, your personal history, and your support network.
