Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment

What does drug withdrawal feel like?

Drug withdrawal is a complex process that can feel different for everyone, depending largely on the type of substance involved, the duration and intensity of use, and individual factors like overall health and genetic predisposition. However, some general experiences and symptoms are often associated with the withdrawal process:

Physical Symptoms: Many people experience physical discomfort or illness during withdrawal. Depending on the substance, this can range from flu-like symptoms (such as fever, chills, sweating, muscle aches, and fatigue) to more severe symptoms like seizures or hallucinations. Opioid withdrawal, for example, is often compared to a severe flu, while alcohol withdrawal can be life-threatening in severe cases.

Psychological Symptoms: Withdrawal can also involve psychological symptoms like anxiety, depression, mood swings, irritability, difficulty concentrating, and cravings for the substance. These can be just as challenging, if not more so, than the physical symptoms.

Sleep Disturbances: Insomnia is a common symptom of withdrawal from many substances, while vivid or disturbing dreams may occur when withdrawing from others.

Discomfort and Distress: Generally, withdrawal can be a very uncomfortable and distressing process. The body has become used to the presence of the substance, and it can react strongly when the substance is no longer available.

Cravings: One of the most challenging aspects of withdrawal for many people is the intense cravings for the substance. These cravings can be both physical and psychological, and they can be triggered by various factors, including stress, people, places, or things associated with substance use.

Why are lgbtq+ individuals at higher risk for drug and alcohol abuse?

LGBTQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and others) individuals are indeed at a higher risk for drug and alcohol abuse due to a variety of factors that often intersect and compound over time. These factors primarily relate to the stress and challenges associated with living as a marginalized group in many societies. Here are some of the main factors:

Minority Stress: This term refers to the chronic stress faced by individuals belonging to a stigmatized minority group. For LGBTQ+ individuals, this can stem from societal prejudice, discrimination, and violence related to their sexual orientation or gender identity. Such stressors can contribute to increased substance use as a coping mechanism.

Stigma and Discrimination: Experiences of rejection, exclusion, and maltreatment can increase feelings of anxiety and depression, which are associated with higher substance use rates. This can occur in various settings, including workplaces, schools, and even within families and social networks.

Internalized Negative Self-Perceptions: LGBTQ+ individuals may internalize societal biases and develop negative self-perceptions about their identity, leading to feelings of guilt, shame, and low self-esteem. These feelings can contribute to the misuse of substances as a form of self-medication.

Lack of Inclusive Healthcare: Many healthcare systems lack the resources or training to provide culturally competent care to LGBTQ+ individuals. This can make it difficult for these individuals to seek help or access effective treatment for substance use disorders.

Social Isolation: Feelings of isolation, which can be the result of rejection or non-acceptance by family, friends, or society, can increase the risk of substance use and misuse.

Intersectional Identity Stressors: LGBTQ+ individuals who also belong to other marginalized groups (like racial or ethnic minorities) may face additional stressors that can increase the risk of substance abuse.

What are the signs of addiction?

Physical symptoms: Changes in appearance, such as weight loss or gain, poor hygiene, bloodshot eyes, or constricted pupils, can be indicative of addiction. Additionally, the person may display signs of intoxication or withdrawal, such as tremors, sweating, or flu-like symptoms.

Behavioral changes: Addiction can lead to significant shifts in behavior, such as increased secrecy, social isolation, or sudden mood swings. The person may neglect responsibilities, withdraw from activities they once enjoyed, or display uncharacteristic aggression or irritability.

Loss of control: A hallmark of addiction is the inability to control substance use or engagement in harmful behaviors, even when the person expresses a desire to stop. This can lead to increased frequency or intensity of use, as well as unsuccessful attempts to quit or cut down.

Preoccupation: The person may become preoccupied with obtaining, using, or recovering from the effects of the substance or behavior, often at the expense of other aspects of their life.

Risk-taking: Addiction can lead to increased risk-taking behaviors, such as using substances in dangerous situations, driving under the influence, or engaging in risky sexual activities.

Neglecting relationships: Addiction can strain personal relationships, as the person may prioritize their substance use or behavior over their connections with friends and family.

Changes in sleep patterns and energy levels: Addiction can cause disruptions in sleep patterns, leading to insomnia or excessive sleepiness. The person may also experience fluctuations in energy levels, such as periods of hyperactivity followed by lethargy.

Tolerance and withdrawal: Over time, individuals with addiction may develop a tolerance to the substance or behavior, requiring higher doses or more frequent engagement to achieve the desired effect. If the person stops using the substance or engaging in the behavior, they may experience withdrawal symptoms, such as anxiety, irritability, insomnia, or physical discomfort.

Continued use despite negative consequences: A key sign of addiction is the persistence of substance use or engagement in harmful behaviors despite experiencing negative consequences, such as health issues, relationship problems, financial difficulties, or legal troubles.

Neglect of responsibilities: Addiction can cause a person to neglect personal, professional, or family obligations, resulting in job loss, financial difficulties, or relationship problems.
