Who
is an addict? Most
of us do not have to think twice about this question. We
know! Our
whole life and thinking was centered in drugs in one form or
another—the getting and using and finding ways and
means to get more. We lived to use and used to live. Very
simply, an addict is a man or woman whose life is controlled
by drugs. We are people in the grip of a continuing and
progressive illness whose ends are always the same: jails,
institutions, and death.
What
is the Narcotics Anonymous program? NA
is a nonprofit fellowship or society of men and women for
whom drugs had become a major problem. We are recovering
addicts who meet regularly to help each other stay clean.
This is a program of complete abstinence from all drugs.
There is only one requirement for membership, the desire to
stop using. We suggest that you keep an open mind and give
yourself a break. Our program is a set of principles written
so simply that we can follow them in our daily lives. The
most important thing about them is that they work.
