Treatment Centers in Pennsylvania

Is My Addiction Covered?

Yes, your addiction is covered. Treatment covers every addiction possible and 12 Step Groups cover most addictions in either a broad group or a more addiction focused group. Some of the main 12 Step Groups are:

• Alcoholics Anonymous
• Narcotics Anonymous
• Stimulants Anonymous
• Cocaine Anonymous
• Methamphetamine Anonymous

There are many more groups under the 12 Step umbrella.

Where Should I go for Help?

You should go to a qualified treatment center for help with your addiction. They have both full service treatment and meetings like the AA Meetings in Pennsylvania. Counseling, medication, and other types of treatment are necessary to improve your chances of recovering completely.

You can find treatment centers all over the state, in small towns such as Hazleton and Elizabethtown, and big cities like Allentown and Harrisburg.

Understanding the Different types of 12 Step Meetings in Pennsylvania

There are two basic types of meeting like the Pennsylvania NA Meetings. These two types are:

• Open meetings – meetings where anyone is welcome even the curious and students.
• Closed meetings – meetings where only the members and those wishing to join are welcome.

Both open and closed meetings have the same subtypes of meetings. These are:

• Big book meetings
• Sharing meetings
• Speakers meetings
• Newcomers meetings
• Steps meetings

These meetings are continuously available all over the state of Pennsylvania.

12 Step Groups are different from other support groups. When you are a member of a 12 Step Group you are in a supportive environment all working towards completing the same set of steps. Many of the other groups do not offer support or clear cut guidance.

The major difference between the 12 Step Program and others is that 12 Step Programs believe that addiction is a disease. Science backs this belief up. Other groups believe that addiction is something that you can cure on your own.
