People can become addicted to drugs or alcohol despite a handicap or particular physical problem. This sometimes makes people particularly more susceptible to getting involved in substance abuse, due to the unique challenges that this can bring in the individual's life. This is often a factor for individuals in the deaf and hearing impaired community as well, and treatment for substance abuse problems is sometimes needed. Deaf or hearing impaired individuals often need ASL or other help as part of their rehab needs, and there are alcohol and drug rehab facilities accessible throughout the Golconda area which specifically help fill these needs. Skilled drug rehab counselors who know ASL and can offer other necessary help to deaf or hearing impaired substance abusers are readily available in a number of drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers around Golconda and in the country.
