No, please do not think that it is ridiculous to attend a NA meeting because you dealing with “just pot and pills”. Instead, all the more should you attend since you are addicted to only pot and pills as it will boost your confidence and hope that you will be able to get over this addiction knowing that there are more severe cases out there.
The NA vision is: Every addict in the world has a chance to experience our message in his or her own language and culture and find the opportunity to the right way out life.

As stated on that page, ‘We focus on the disease of addiction rather than any particular drug.’
You do not have to possess any particular drug in order to attend a NA meeting. I am very sure you know that. But do not let pride and shame get in your way.
I hope that you will just give the NA meeting a try, just once. Great to see you wanting to get out of this addiction. There will be difficult times, of course, times where you will fail. Nonetheless, fix your eyes the goal – overcoming the addiction. That is why face to face support is so much easier.
All the best and take care.
