DESCRIPTION
Addiction Support Groups in Suffolk
Fellowship meetings such as AA and NA (Narcotics Anonymous) provide support to those in recovery in the form of group therapy. For some opening up on addiction can be a daunting task, but being part of a fellowship helps :
- To build long lasting friendships with like-minded people
- Encourage one another to live a life of sobriety
- Act as a talking therapy to help those overcome deep-rooted trauma
- Fight boredom or loneliness
What is NA?
NA (a.k.a. Narcotics Anonymous) is a non-profit organisation where volunteers help each other gain the confidence that being clean and staying away from drugs is a possibility. Following the 12-step programme, they encourage complete abstinence from addictive substances and behaviours, including alcohol. This is due to the high rates of alcohol addiction in the UK.
