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, misunderstood, and seen as socially depraved. This is often a very difficult and painful way to live, and leads many LGBT people to a lifestyle of drug abuse to alleviate this pain. Someone that is LGBT might not feel safe within a traditional rehabilitation facility amongst people who aren't experiencing the same problems they are experiencing within their lives. A LGBT rehab provides an environment that's totally free of judgment, where LGBT clients can be completely comfortable and safe revealing to their peers and rehab counselors issues which need to be resolved in order to get well. Rehabilitation counselors in a LGBT rehab can help clients repair relationships with their family, in case their family disagree with their sexual preference as is generally the case. This situation is certainly a common trigger for abusing drugs, and is an example of a thing that would be resolved in treatment. LGBT clients often simply want to be accepted within their lives, and rehabilitation will help them accept themselves and build confidence in order to lead a wholesome life free of alcohol and drugs.
