Steps, Traditions and Concepts

Ninth Step
We made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.

Ninth Tradition
NA, as such, ought never be organized, but we may create service boards or committees directly responsible to those they serve.

Ninth Concept
All elements of our service structure have the responsibility to carefully consider all viewpoints in their decision-making processes.

Dealing with gossip

Page 277

"In accordance with the principles of recovery, we try not to judge, stereotype, or moralize with each other."

Basic Text, p.11

Let's face it: In Narcotics Anonymous, we live in a glass house of sorts. Our fellow members know more about our personal lives than anyone has ever known before. They know who we spend our time with, where we work, what step we're on, how many children we have, and so forth. And what our fellow members don't know, they will probably imagine.

We may be unhappy when others gossip about us. But if we withdraw from the fellowship and isolate ourselves to avoid gossip, we also rob ourselves of the love, friendship, and unparalleled experience with recovery that our fellow members have to offer. A better way to deal with gossip is to simply accept the way things are and the way we are, and live our lives according to principles. The more secure we become with our personal program, the decisions we make, and the guidance we receive from a loving God, the less the opinions of others will concern us.

Just for Today: I am committed to being involved in the NA Fellowship. The opinions of others will not affect my commitment to recovery.
