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.
