What is Nar-Anon?
Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired? Have you tried everything you can think of to change the addict and nothing seems to work? Don’t give up. There is hope. If you would like your life to be different, Nar-Anon can offer you a better way to live…you are no longer alone.
Mission Statement: The Nar-Anon Family Groups are a worldwide fellowship for those affected by someone else’s addiction. As a twelve-step program, we offer our help by sharing our experience, strength, and hope.
Why do I need help due to someone else’s addiction?
We who care the most suffer from the addict’s erratic behavior. Soon, we begin to think we are to blame and assume the guilt, fears, and responsibilities of the addict. Thus, we become sick, too. The obsession of the family becomes apparent when we try to control the addict’s using. We become obsessed with where they are, what they are doing, and how we might control their addiction. We become victims of denial.
What will I find at Nar-Anon?
You will find love, understanding, and hope in the Nar-Anon Family Group … we find others with the same feelings and problems.
Is my changed attitude going to make a difference?
Most of us believe the addict is the one who needs to change. It comes as a shock to hear we also need to change. By working the steps … we begin … to change ourselves.
What can I expect if I keep going to meetings?
You will learn how to change your own thinking and attitude about the addict – about life. This is your program and your recovery. If you keep coming back … if you work it … it will work.
How do I find a Nar-Anon meeting?
There is a meeting here in town in Canyon Country CA: Thursday nights at 6 p.m.
The Recovery Room -17714 Sierra Highway, Canyon Country, CA 91351
