LGBT represents lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are facilities which address the unique needs of these clients. Individuals who are LGBT can often feel alone, misunderstood, and considered socially unwanted. This is often a quite challenging and painful existence, and leads many LGBT people to a lifestyle of substance abuse to numb this pain. Someone who is LGBT might not feel safe within a traditional rehabilitation program amongst folks who aren't experiencing the same problems they are experiencing within their lives. A LGBT program provides an environment that is totally free of judgment, where LGBT clients can be totally comfortable and safe divulging to their peers and rehab counselors issues which must be resolved to enable them to get better. Treatment counselors in a LGBT rehab will help clients repair relationships with their loved ones, in the case their loved ones disagree with their sexual preference as is often the case. This situation is definitely a common trigger for abusing drugs, which is a good example of something will be resolved in rehab. LGBT clients often just want to be accepted in their lives, and rehab will help them accept themselves and build confidence to be able to lead a wholesome life free from alcohol and drugs.
