Being diagnosed with HIV/AIDS may set off drug use, or dangerous sexual behavior due to drug use could have caused to contract the illness. People who have HIV/AIDS, either because of their drug use or as a pre-existing condition before their drug use problem, often require rehabilitation services tailored to fulfill their particular needs and challenges. Some of these problems are physical in nature, because of the fact that substance abusers with HIV/AIDS almost never care for themselves and take the proper medicines they need to maintain their own health. As a result, they arrive to rehab in ibad health and this will have to be addressed as a priority whilst dealing with other important concerns. Besides the obvious necessity to offer medical solutions while in rehabilitation, people who have HIV/AIDS should also deal with deeper issues which prompted their alcohol or drug use. Usually, people have situations in their lives that are purely environmental which may have caused them to use alcohol or drugs, including oppressive conditions in their lives or negative relationships. These are the issues which treatment counselors will target in HIV/AIDS rehabilitation services.
