Being diagnosed with HIV/AIDS may trigger drug use, or dangerous sexual behavior due to drug abuse may have caused the person to contract the disease. Individuals who have HIV/AIDS, either because of their substance abuse or as a pre-existing condition prior to their drug use issue, typically require rehabilitation services tailored in order to meet their specific needs and problems. Some of these challenges are physical in nature, because of the fact that drug users with HIV/AIDS rarely care for themselves and take the proper medicines they need to maintain their own health. As a result, these individuals arrive to treatment in very poor physical shape and this will have to be addressed as a priority whilst addressing other crucial concerns. Besides the obvious requirement to provide medical solutions during rehab, people with HIV/AIDS must also tackle deeper issues which brought about their alcohol or drug use. Usually, individuals have conditions in their lives which are purely environmental which may have caused them to use alcohol or drugs, like oppressive circumstances in their lives or damaging relationships. These are the concerns which rehab professionals will give attention to as part of HIV/AIDS rehab services.
