Narcotics Anonymous NA is an international support group for people who are overcoming an addiction

Narcotics Anonymous, further referred to as NA, is a nonprofit organization provided for men and women who have developed a problem with drug addiction. Within NA these men and women meet regularly to help one another stay abstinent from all drug use. NA is open to anyone and everyone who wishes to defeat their battle against drug addiction in a positive uplifting environment. There are no fees, no papers, no pledges, or promises associated with NA. Only human beings wishing to better their lives and the lives of those around them through support and positive healing. You are no obligated to disclose what you used, how much, who from, or anything you’ve done in the past or present. You must only bring an attitude devoted to change for the better. What do you want to do to change problem and how can the support of the community help is the only goal of NA.

Nervous jitters prior to your first meeting may cause some anxiety about attending but rest assured, everyone at this meeting is here for the same reason, to beat their drug addiction battle and live a happier healthier life. Everyone has goals and the purpose of NA is to nurture these goals, and offer strength for the recovering addict to stay clean even when it seems impossible. Having the strength of others who are fighting just as hard as you is all one needs to continue to attend meetings. Typically those who continue to attend meetings regularly stay clean and lead happier lives sans drug dependency. Facing the battle of kicking drug dependency is not usually a one man battle.

When you enter a NA meeting you will meet people of various backgrounds and walks of life but they, and you, are here for one reason, to find healing and strength through the help of others while simultaneously offering strength to others in need. There are no mental health professionals, no attendance sheets, nothing to stop you from coming or going when you please or judging eyes watching. Only other addicts looking for a better path in life.
