Welcome to Unity Springs Area Narcotics Anonymous
Our Primary Purpose….
To Carry the Message to the Addict Who Still Suffers
What is our message?
Our message is that an addict, any addict, can stop using
drugs, lose the desire to use and find a new way to live. Our message
is hope and the promise of freedom.(Basic Text, 5th Ed., p 65)
Narcotics Anonymous meetings provide an atmosphere of recovery where
individuals can share their common problem and solutions. In our
recovery we have found that living clean is very difficult without
support.
The only requirement for membership is the desire to stop using (3rd Tradition).
You don’t have to be clean when you get here. You don’t have to wait
for an overdose or a jail sentence to get help from NA. Addiction is
not a hopeless condition from which there is no recovery. We do
recover.
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.
There
are no strings attached to NA. We are not affiliated with any other
organizations. We have no initiation fees or dues, no pledges to sign,
no promises to make to anyone. We are not connected with any political,
religious, or law enforcement groups, and are under no surveillance at
any time. Anyone may join us regardless of age, race, sexual identity,
creed, religion, or lack of religion.
We
are not interested in what or how much you used or who your connections
were, what you have done in the past, how much or how little you have,
but only in what you want to do about your problem and how we can help.
The newcomer is the most important person at any meeting, because we can
only keep what we have by giving it away. We have learned from our
group experience that those who keep coming to our meetings regularly
stay clean.
