 The 12 Steps of NA Narcotics Anonymous (NA)

The nonprofit fellowship or society of recovering drug addicts whose primary purpose is to help addicts stop using drugs. NA outlines a 12-step plan to guide members toward recovery, with a focus on spiritual principles versus medical treatment. The 12 steps are:

  1. Admit powerlessness over addiction and that lives have become unmanageable.
  2. Come to believe a Power greater than oneself can restore sanity.
  3. Make decision to turn will and lives over to the care of God as understood.
  4. Make a searching and fearless moral inventory of selves.
  5. Admit to God, ourselves, and other human beings the exact nature of wrongs.
  6. Become entirely ready to have God remove all defects of character.
  7. Humbly ask God to remove shortcomings.
  8. Make a list of all persons harmed and become willing to make amends.
  9. Make direct amends to such people whenever possible, except when doing so would injure them or others.
  10. Continue to take personal inventory and promptly admit when wrong.
  11. Seek through prayer and meditation to improve conscious contact with God as understood, praying only for knowledge of God’s will and the power to carry that out.
  12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, try to carry this message to other addicts and practice these principles in all affairs.

The 12 steps aim to motivate NA members to make positive changes in their lives and inspire recovery from drug addiction across Seattle, Washington, and the entire United States. The steps promote self-improvement, making amends, and helping others in order to overcome addiction.
