Hi...welcome to my NA page...my name is D'han, an addict from Springfield, MO!
To date, by the grace of a Power Greater than myself, I have been clean four and
a half years. I belong to the Southwest Missouri Area of NA, which is in the
Show-Me Region of NA! I hope you enjoy this page and the very special links I
have listed below. I love Narcotics Anonymous with all my heart and hold each
and every addict very close within my heart. If you want to know more about me,
my family, and our interests, please visit my homepage at:
Most of us do not have to think twice about this question. WE KNOW! Our
whole life and thinking was centered in drugs in one form or another--the
getting and using and finding ways and means to get more. We lived to use
and used to live. Very simply, an addict is a man or woman whose life is
controlled by drugs. We are people in the grip of a continuing and progressive
illness whose ends are always the same: jails, institutions and death.
The 12 Steps of Narcotics Anonymous
We admitted that we were powerless over our addiction, that our lives had become unmanageable.
We came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
We made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
We made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
We admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
We were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.
We humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.
We made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.
We made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.
We continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.
We sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.
Having had a spiritual awakening as a result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to addicts, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.
