Description

Written by addicts, for addicts, and about addicts, this is the softcover edition of the book that sets forth the spiritual principles of Narcotics Anonymous that hundreds of thousands of addicts have used in recovery. Just as with alcoholism, there is no "cure" for narcotic addiction, but recovery is possible through a program adapted from the Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous. Intended as a complete textbook for every addict seeking recovery, Narcotics Anonymous describes the NA program and how it works. It includes the NA Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, as well as many personal stories of people who have found freedom from addiction through Narcotics Anonymous. Read more

  • I really enjoyed reading some of these
Format: Hardcover
If I had to only have one book in my life as a recovering addict it would definitely be "The Basic Text." In the beginning of my journey in recovery I had an AA book and "The Basic Text." Though the AA literature was well-written I felt the NA's literature was much more in step with the present-day. And even though I identified with other recovering alcoholics I used narcotics more than anything else and found much deeper identification within the meetings of Narcotics Anonymous and the pages of "The Basic Text." The first half of the book deals with "Who Is An Addict?", "What Is The Narcotics Anonymous Program?", "How It Works", "The Twelve Traditions Of NA" etc. The second half, or Book Two: Personal Stories, is exactly that--personal stories of individual recovering addicts and how they found help thru NA. I really enjoyed reading some of these. Within these stories is where I identified with the feelings that other addicts go through. Identification is key to the recovery process. I owe my life to Narcotics Anonymous, and frankly, life today is GOOD! Thank-you. ... show more

  • It's a the softcover Basic Text . . .
Format: Paperback
So the Basic Text is the Basic Text. But when doing lit studies it's easier to follow along with your group when everyone is using the same format of the book. I have this in the paperback and digital versions. Best investment I've made in my recovery in terms of reading material. I'm always prepared and my digital version has my highlighting in one color and my group highlighting in another. Just my thoughts. ... show more

  • Best book ever written on addiction & recovery
Format: Hardcover
The basic text of NA is the best book ever written on addiction and recovery. It is the gold standard, written by addicts for addicts. It details a profound and unparalleled understanding of The 12 Steps and the spiritual principles that fuel the miracle that an addict, ANY ADDICT, can stop using, lose the desire to use drugs, and find a new way of life. This book has been an essential part of my own journey on the road to recovery. Recommended without a single reservation. Flawless. ... show more

  • What I needed
Format: Hardcover
This basic text book was great quality for the most part. It had minimal wear but had people’s names and some phone numbers wrote in it which were quite personal. I had to take white out and wipe them all out, so no one else saw them that didn’t need to see them. It still had the dust jacket which is in pretty good shape overall, I’m impressed. ... show more
