LGBT means lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are facilities which address the particular needs of these clients. Individuals who are LGBT can often feel alone, misunderstood, and viewed as socially unwanted. This is often a very hard and painful existence, and leads many LGBT individuals to a lifestyle of drug use to numb these feelings. Somebody who is LGBT might not exactly feel comfortable within a traditional treatment center amongst people who aren't experiencing the same challenges they may be experiencing of their lives. A LGBT center provides an environment that's free from judgment, where LGBT clients can feel completely comfortable and safe divulging to their peers and rehab counselors problems which have to be handled to be able to get well. Rehab counselors in a LGBT rehab can help clients repair relationships with their family members, in the event their family disagree with their sexual preference as is often the case. This circumstance is an extremely common trigger for substance abuse, and it is a good example of a thing that will be resolved in rehabilitation. LGBT clients often just want to be accepted within their lives, and rehabilitation will help them accept themselves and build confidence to be able to lead a healthy life free of drugs and alcohol.
