LGBT represents lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and there are centers which address the particular needs of these clients. People who are LGBT can feel alone, misunderstood, and viewed as socially unwanted. This is sometimes a very difficult or painful way to live, and leads many LGBT individuals to a life of drug abuse to alleviate these feelings. Someone who is LGBT might not exactly feel relaxed within a conventional rehabilitation center amongst people who aren't experiencing the same challenges they may be experiencing of their lives. A LGBT rehab offers an environment which can be free of judgment, where LGBT clients can be completely comfortable and safe divulging to their peers and rehab counselors problems which have to be handled to enable them to get better. Rehabilitation counselors in a LGBT rehab can help clients fix relationships with their family, in the event their loved ones disagree with their sexual preference as is generally the case. This situation is an extremely frequent trigger for drug abuse, and is also an example of an issue that would be resolved in treatment. LGBT clients often only want to be accepted within their lives, and treatment will help them accept themselves and build confidence to be able to lead a healthy life free of alcohol and drugs.
