      Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment


      Suicide risks from drug abuse among lgbtq+ youth

      Substance abuse significantly increases the risk of suicide, particularly among vulnerable populations such as LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and others) youth. This heightened risk stems from a combination of factors associated with both substance abuse and the unique challenges faced by LGBTQ+ youth. Here's a closer look at these factors:

      Mental Health Disorders: Substance abuse often co-occurs with mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder, which are known risk factors for suicide. LGBTQ+ youth experience these mental health conditions at higher rates than their heterosexual and cisgender peers, partially due to the minority stress they face.

      Minority Stress: Minority stress refers to the chronic stress experienced by marginalized groups, including LGBTQ+ individuals. It can include experiences such as discrimination, stigma, bullying, and family rejection, which can increase feelings of hopelessness and contribute to both substance use and suicidal ideation.

      Substance Use and Suicidal Behavior: Substance use can lead to increased impulsivity, decreased inhibition, and intensified feelings of despair, making a person more likely to attempt suicide. It can also exacerbate feelings of isolation and hopelessness, further increasing the risk.

      Social Isolation: Many LGBTQ+ youth feel socially isolated, either because they are not out to their peers or because they face rejection after coming out. This isolation can lead to increased substance use and a higher risk of suicide.

      Family Rejection: Family rejection related to an individual's sexual orientation or gender identity can lead to increased substance use and heightened suicide risk. LGBTQ+ youth who do not receive support from their families are particularly vulnerable.

      Lack of Access to Mental Health Services: Many LGBTQ+ youth struggle to access mental health and substance use treatment services, which can help manage risk factors for suicide. Barriers to access can include lack of insurance, stigma, and a shortage of providers who offer LGBTQ+-inclusive care.

      Intersectionality: LGBTQ+ youth who belong to other marginalized groups (e.g., racial/ethnic minorities) often face additional layers of discrimination and stress, which can further increase their risk of substance abuse and suicide.

      Efforts to prevent suicide among LGBTQ+ youth include providing access to culturally competent mental health and substance use treatment, fostering supportive environments in schools and communities, and advocating for policies that protect LGBTQ+ youth from discrimination and harassment. It's also crucial to provide support for families of LGBTQ+ youth, as family acceptance has been shown to protect against suicide risk.


      Who is SAMHSA?

      SAMHSA, or the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, is an U.S. federal agency within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Established in 1992, its primary mission is to reduce the impact of substance abuse and mental illness on American communities. SAMHSA focuses on improving the quality and availability of prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation services related to substance use disorders and mental health conditions.

      Some of the key functions and responsibilities of SAMHSA include:

      • Funding: SAMHSA provides grants and funding to states, territories, tribes, communities, and organizations to support the delivery of mental health and substance use prevention, treatment, and recovery services.
      • Technical assistance: The agency offers technical assistance and training to service providers, practitioners, and other stakeholders to enhance their capacity to deliver evidence-based practices and improve the quality of care.
      • Data collection and analysis: SAMHSA collects and analyzes data on behavioral health in the United States, including the prevalence and patterns of substance use and mental health conditions. This information helps inform policy, program planning, and decision-making at the federal, state, and local levels.
      • Public awareness and education: SAMHSA raises awareness about the importance of behavioral health, promotes evidence-based practices, and works to reduce stigma and discrimination surrounding mental illness and substance use disorders.
      • Guidelines and best practices: The agency develops and disseminates guidelines, best practices, and other resources to improve the effectiveness of prevention, treatment, and recovery services for substance use disorders and mental health conditions.
      • Collaboration and partnerships: SAMHSA collaborates with other federal agencies, state and local governments, professional organizations, advocacy groups, and community stakeholders to coordinate efforts and resources to address behavioral health issues.

      To support its mission, SAMHSA operates various centers, such as the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention, the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment, and the Center for Mental Health Services. Additionally, the agency manages the National Helpline (1-800-662-HELP), a confidential, free, 24/7, 365-day-a-year treatment referral and information service for individuals and families facing mental health and/or substance use disorders.


      What is the purpose of drugs such as methadone, suboxone and subutex in the recovery process?

      Methadone, Suboxone (a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone), and Subutex (buprenorphine) are medications used in Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorders. Their primary purpose in the recovery process is to help manage withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings, facilitating a safer, more comfortable transition to abstinence or long-term management of the disorder. Here's a more detailed look at how each of these medications function:

      Methadone: Methadone is a long-acting opioid agonist, which means it activates the same receptors in the brain that other opioids like heroin, morphine, or prescription painkillers do. However, it does so more slowly and for a longer duration, without causing the intense euphoria associated with misuse of those drugs. This helps to mitigate withdrawal symptoms and cravings, enabling individuals to function more normally in daily life.

      Suboxone: Suboxone contains two active ingredients: buprenorphine and naloxone. Buprenorphine is a partial opioid agonist, meaning it activates the opioid receptors in the brain, but to a lesser extent than full agonists like heroin or methadone. This can help manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms without producing the high associated with opioid misuse. Naloxone is an opioid antagonist, meaning it blocks the effects of opioids. It's included in Suboxone to discourage misuse of the medication; if someone tries to inject Suboxone, the naloxone will trigger withdrawal symptoms.

      Subutex: Subutex is the brand name for buprenorphine alone. Like in Suboxone, buprenorphine in Subutex serves to lessen withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings. It is typically used in the initial stages of treatment, while Suboxone is more commonly used for maintenance.

      These medications are typically used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan that also includes counseling and behavioral therapies. It's important to note that while these medications can be highly effective in supporting recovery, they should be used under the guidance of a healthcare provider due to the risk of misuse and potential side effects. Each individual's treatment plan should be tailored to their unique needs and circumstances to ensure the best possible outcomes.
