      Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment


      In what ways do drug addiction change one's personality?

      Drug addiction can significantly change an individual's personality in various ways. The changes are often a result of how the substance interacts with the brain and can affect one's behaviors, emotions, and interactions with others. Here are some common ways in which drug addiction may alter personality:

      Increased Aggression or Irritability: Substances can affect the brain's balance of neurotransmitters, leading to changes in mood and behavior. This can result in increased aggression, irritability, or mood swings, which might not align with the person's typical personality traits.

      Decreased Motivation: Many addictive substances can lead to a decreased interest or motivation in activities that were once enjoyed. This can result in a noticeable change in personality, as the person may appear apathetic or disinterested in life outside their substance use.

      Increased Impulsivity and Risk-taking: Drug addiction often leads to increased impulsivity and risk-taking behaviors. This is due to changes in the brain's reward system and decision-making processes, leading individuals to take more risks to obtain the substance, often disregarding the potential consequences.

      Paranoia and Anxiety: Some substances can induce feelings of paranoia or increase levels of anxiety. Individuals who were previously calm and trusting may become suspicious, anxious, or overly worried.

      Depression: Many individuals struggling with substance use disorders also experience symptoms of depression. This can lead to a noticeable change in personality, including increased sadness, lethargy, and withdrawal from social activities.

      Manipulative Behavior: In order to continue using and obtaining drugs, individuals may resort to manipulative behaviors, such as lying, stealing, or deceit. This can result in a significant change in personality, as individuals may prioritize their addiction over their relationships and personal values.

      Social Isolation: As drug addiction progresses, individuals may isolate themselves from family and friends, either to hide their substance use or because their primary relationships are increasingly with others who are using drugs.

      Neglect of Personal Care: Addiction can lead to neglect of personal care and hygiene, which may manifest in physical changes as well as shifts in personality traits related to self-discipline and self-respect.


      What are the effects of fentanyl?

      Pain relief: Fentanyl's primary medical use is for pain relief, as it binds to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord to reduce the perception of pain and increase pain tolerance.

      Euphoria: Like other opioids, fentanyl can produce feelings of euphoria by increasing the release of neurotransmitters such as dopamine in the brain, which can contribute to its potential for abuse and addiction.

      Sedation: Fentanyl can cause drowsiness, sedation, and a general feeling of relaxation. In medical settings, this effect is often desirable, but it can be dangerous if the drug is taken recreationally or without proper supervision.

      Respiratory depression: One of the most severe side effects of fentanyl is respiratory depression, which is a slowing of the breathing rate. This can lead to a lack of oxygen, resulting in brain damage, coma, or death, especially if taken in high doses or combined with other substances that suppress breathing.

      Nausea and vomiting: Fentanyl can cause gastrointestinal side effects, such as nausea and vomiting, which are common among opioid users.

      Constipation: Opioids like fentanyl can slow down the movement of food through the digestive tract, resulting in constipation.

      Itching: Fentanyl and other opioids can cause histamine release, leading to itching or skin irritation in some users.

      Dependence and addiction: Due to its potency, fentanyl has a high potential for dependence and addiction. Prolonged use can lead to physical dependence, withdrawal symptoms, and psychological addiction, making it challenging to stop using the drug.

      Overdose: Fentanyl's potency increases the risk of overdose, which can be life-threatening. Symptoms of fentanyl overdose include extreme drowsiness, difficulty breathing, slow heart rate, low blood pressure, and unconsciousness. Naloxone, an opioid antagonist, can be administered to reverse the effects of a fentanyl overdose, but multiple doses may be required due to fentanyl's potency.


      What are substance abuse factors for lgbtq+ individuals?

      Substance abuse among LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and others) individuals is influenced by a range of factors. These factors often intersect and can compound the risk for developing substance use disorders. Some of the primary factors include:

      • Minority Stress: Minority stress refers to the additional stressors experienced by marginalized groups, such as LGBTQ+ individuals. This includes experiences of discrimination, stigma, harassment, and violence due to their sexual orientation or gender identity. This chronic stress can contribute to increased substance use as a coping mechanism.
      • Mental Health: LGBTQ+ individuals are at a higher risk for certain mental health disorders, including depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress disorder. These mental health conditions can increase the risk of substance use and substance use disorders.
      • Social Isolation and Rejection: The process of coming out to family and friends can sometimes result in rejection or loss of social support. This isolation and rejection can increase feelings of loneliness and despair, which may contribute to substance use.
      • Internalized Homophobia or Transphobia: Internalized homophobia or transphobia refers to negative feelings, beliefs, and biases about one's own sexual orientation or gender identity. This internalized stigma can lead to lower self-esteem and increased risk of substance abuse.
      • Lack of Access to Culturally Competent Healthcare: Many healthcare providers lack training in LGBTQ+ health issues, including substance use disorders, leading to barriers in access to effective, culturally competent treatment.
      • Social Environments and Norms: Certain LGBTQ+ social settings, such as bars or clubs, often center around alcohol or other substance use, which may normalize and facilitate substance abuse.
      • Trauma: LGBTQ+ individuals experience higher rates of certain types of trauma, such as physical or sexual abuse, hate crimes, or bullying, which can increase the risk of substance use disorders.
