This is a question that each person must answer for themselves. You may find it helpful to begin by reading some of our introductory literature, particularlyAm I an Addict? and Welcome to Narcotics AnonymousIf you are an addict, Narcotics Anonymous can help. NA offers recovery to addicts around the world. We focus on the disease of addiction, rather than on any specific drug. Our message is broad enough to reach addicts from every background, culture, and walk of life. Our only concern is whether you have the desire to stop using and how we can help. As stated in the Third Tradition of It Works: How and Why, "The only requirement for membership is a desire to stop using."
