LGBT represents lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are facilities which address the unique needs of these clients. Individuals who are LGBT can feel alone, misunderstood, and considered socially unwanted. This may be a very difficult or painful way to live, and leads many LGBT individuals to a lifestyle of drug abuse to alleviate this pain. Somebody who is LGBT might not feel comfortable in a conventional rehabilitation program amongst individuals who aren't experiencing the same challenges they may be experiencing within their lives. A LGBT facility offers an environment that's free of judgment, where LGBT clients can be totally comfortable and safe divulging to their peers and treatment counselors problems which must be handled in order to get better. Rehab counselors within a LGBT rehab will help clients fix relationships with their family, in the case their loved ones disagree with their sexual preference as is often the case. This circumstance is an extremely common trigger for substance abuse, which is a good example of something which can be resolved in rehab. LGBT clients often simply want to be accepted in their lives, and rehabilitation will help them accept themselves and create confidence so that they can lead a healthy life free from drugs and alcohol.
