LGBT stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are facilities which address the unique needs of these clients. Individuals who are LGBT can feel alone, not understood, and viewed as socially unwanted. This can be a very difficult or painful way to live, and leads many LGBT people to a life of drug abuse to alleviate these feelings. Someone who is LGBT might not feel at ease within 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 is free from judgment, where LGBT clients can be completely safe and comfortable divulging to their peers and rehab counselors problems which have to be resolved so that they can recover. Rehab counselors in a LGBT rehab can help clients repair relationships with their family members, in the case their family disagree with their sexual preference as is often the case. This situation is certainly a common trigger for abusing drugs, and it is an example of a thing that would be resolved in rehabilitation. LGBT clients often just want to be accepted within their lives, and rehab will help them accept themselves and produce confidence to be able to lead a healthy life free from drugs and alcohol.
