Who are the members of the Narcotics Anonymous ?
Any one who wants to stop using drugs may become a member of Narcotics Anonymous. Membership is not limited to addicts using any particular drug. Those who feel they may have a problem with drugs, legal or illegal, including alcohol, are welcome in N.A. Recovery in N.A. focuses on the problem of addiction, not on any particular drug. Anonymity The basic premise of anonymity allows addicts to attend meetings without fear of legal or social repercussions. This is an important consideration for an addict thinking about going to a meeting for the first time. Anonymity also supports an atmosphere of equality in meetings. It helps insure that no individuals personality or circumstance will be considered more important than the message of recovery shared in N.A. How does N.A. work ? Addicts helping each other recover are the foundation of N.A. Members meet regularly to talk about their experiences in recovery. More experienced members (known as Sponsors) work individually with newer members.
