What Is a Narcotics Anonymous Meeting?

Narcotic Anonymous meetings are meetings for groups of people who have the shared interest to remain free from active addiction and want to help others do the same. They involve a diverse group of individuals who share their own experiences to help others gain insight into the benefits of recovery over the consequences of addiction.

Narcotics Anonymous (N.A.) meetings are free, non-judgmental, non-intrusive, and non-political open to everyone regardless of age, education, ethnicity, drug of choice, and socioeconomic status. Millions of people worldwide use 12-Step group support meetings like Alcoholics Anonymous (A.A) and N.A. to find greater value in their lives and guidance throughout their recovery paths.

Addiction Recovery

Addiction can happen to anyone, good characters and bad, good jobs, good families, rich or poor and while your first instinct may be to use your own willpower to overcome your addiction, odds are, you will not succeed without some type of help. According to the NIDA, “Although the initial decision to take drugs is voluntary for most people, the brain changes that occur over time challenge an addicted person’s self-control and hamper his or her ability to resist intense impulses to take drugs.

Despite your best efforts to control your addiction, it isn’t something that you can automatically turn on and off at will or cure, but, requires making the necessary life changes that reduce its power and influences in your life.
