LGBT means lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are facilities which address the unique needs of these clients. People who are LGBT can feel alone, not understood, and considered socially unwanted. This is often a very hard and painful way to live, and leads many LGBT individuals to a life of drug abuse to alleviate these feelings. Somebody who is LGBT may not feel relaxed within a traditional rehabilitation center amongst individuals who aren't experiencing the same problems they are experiencing in their lives. A LGBT center offers an environment that is free of judgment, where LGBT clients can be completely safe and comfortable revealing to their peers and rehab counselors problems which need to be resolved in order to get better. Treatment counselors in a LGBT rehab can help clients mend relationships with their loved ones, in case their family disagree with their sexual choice as is generally the case. This circumstance is an extremely common trigger for abusing drugs, and is also an example of something which can be handled in treatment. LGBT clients often just want to be accepted within their lives, and treatment will help them accept themselves and create confidence so that they can lead a healthy life without any drugs and alcohol.
