LGBT stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are programs which address the particular needs of these clients. Individuals who are LGBT can often feel alone, not understood, and seen as socially depraved. This may be a very difficult and painful existence, and leads many LGBT people to a lifestyle of drug abuse to numb these feelings. Somebody who is LGBT might not exactly feel comfortable in a conventional treatment program amongst individuals who aren't experiencing the same problems they may be experiencing of their lives. A LGBT rehab provides an environment that is totally free of judgment, where LGBT clients can be completely comfortable and safe divulging to their peers and rehab counselors issues which must be handled to be able to get well. Rehab counselors in a LGBT rehab will help clients repair relationships with their family, in case their family disagree with their sexual preference as is often the case. This situation is an extremely frequent trigger for drug use, which is an illustration of a thing that will be resolved in rehab. LGBT clients often only want to be accepted in their lives, and rehab will help them accept themselves and create confidence to be able to lead a healthy life clear of alcohol and drugs.
