NA requires a twelve step programme and its not enough stopping drugs it’s staying stopped. Its recommended you have a sponsor who guides you through the steps. You are recommended to get service within NA. All these things help. They have a thing they say ‘keep coming back’. It hasn’t been easy. He didn’t really work a true programme at first and thought he could drink. But of course that led back to drugs. I also don’t drink now in support. Not saying everyone should do that.
