LGBT represents lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are facilities which address the unique needs of these clients. Those who are LGBT can often feel alone, misunderstood, and viewed as socially unwanted. This can be a very hard and painful existence, and leads many LGBT people to a life of drug abuse to numb this pain. Someone that is LGBT might not feel relaxed within a traditional treatment facility amongst individuals who aren't experiencing the same challenges they may be experiencing in their lives. A LGBT rehab provides an environment which can be free from judgment, where LGBT clients can feel totally safe and comfortable revealing to their peers and rehabilitation counselors problems which need to be handled so that they can get better. Rehab counselors in a LGBT rehab can help clients mend relationships with their loved ones, in the case their loved ones disagree with their sexual choice as is generally the case. This situation is an extremely frequent trigger for drug abuse, and is an example of something can be handled in treatment. LGBT clients often just 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 without any drugs and alcohol.
