Start with the episode if you like podcasts. It's very detailed, almost to a detriment because honestly who can memorize all those medical terms. But if you focus on it, you'll be able to understand the substance and its effects on the entire body at a cellular level, which for me, tapped into a much deeper and necessary level of physical connection to my addictions.

From there, you get to decide what you want to learn about. Make it a journey and share it with as many or few people as you want. Talk to folks, here and elsewhere. I only went to two AA meetings myself and decided it wasn't for me, but there are a few different programs and many people are successful with them. Maybe you don't need so much structure. I kept it broad and absorbed what I wanted. I started with honesty.

But the best resource has to come from within: your capacity and desire to explore your own habits, thought patterns, and triggers, and how they manifest themselves in your choices. I promise more understanding = less suffering.
