Narcotics Anonymous is a fellowship in which addicts help other addicts obstain from drug use. Recovery from the disease of addiction is an ongoing process. Some of the drugs that people in our fellowship have used are cocaine, heroin, marijuana, crystal meth, speed, amphetamines, perscription painkillers, other addictive perscriptions, and any other narcotic. Some members of our fellowship have withdrew from heroin and/or opiates. Methadone is still an opiate which people abuse and believe they are not getting high. A recent maintenance program which people belive that is a replacement for methadone, but is not, is called suboxone. Theses can be purchased from online pharmacies as well as oxycotton, roxicet, percocet, lidocaine, Adderall an Riddalin.

"Insanity is repeating the same mistakes and expecting different results."

Basic Text, p. 23

Mistakes! We all know how it feels to make them. Many of us feel that our entire lives have been a mistake. We often regard our mistakes with shame or guilt

at the very least, with frustration and impatience. We tend to see mistakes as evidence that we are still sick, crazy, stupid, or too damaged to recover.

In truth, mistakes are a very vital and important part of being human. For particularly stubborn people (such as addicts), mistakes are often our best teachers. There is no shame in making mistakes. In fact, making new mistakes often shows our willingness to take risks and grow.

It's helpful, though, if we learn from our mistakes; repeating the same ones may be a sign that we're stuck. And expecting different results from the same old mistakes

well, that's what we call "insanity!' It just doesn't work.

Just for Today: Mistakes aren't tragedies. But please, Higher Power, help me learn from them!
