Individuals that struggle with a drug addiction can sometimes be overwhelmed by the amount of information and instructions available when they are trying to get clean. By joining Narcotics Anonymous (NA), drug users can connect with other users like themselves, and receive guidance from them on what steps worked and what didn’t. The experiences from others, along with the program’s 12-step program can greatly benefit those that have no previous experience in getting clean.

Alcohol abuse doesn’t only make the addicted individual suffer. The individual’s loved ones and friends are often going through hardship too. Being dependent on alcohol often makes the individual tunnel-visioned, not caring about what others around him feel. Thankfully, Al-Anon meetings guide family and friends of alcohol addicts through a 12-step faith program to help them come to terms with the addiction.
