Narcotics Anonymous
Narcotic anonymous was started in the late 1940’s, which sprang up from the “Alcoholics Anonymous Program”. Narcotics Anonymous is an “international community-based association”, whose prime goal is of “recovering drug addicts”. The narcotics anonymous is spread across “127 countries worldwide” and has conducted more than “43,900 weekly meetings”.

The narcotic anonymous strongly portrays that thought kicking of the drug habit is not simple, but it is also not impossible, you only need a strong will power to regain your normal life.
