Sorry I know this probably isint answering your question very well at all haha. But I thought I would put it here in case it can help someone. I read a webtoon recently that centered around human addiction called Nina's magic chest. Idk if you like comics or webtoons but I recommend checking it out if you do ^^ In the author's note it had some words that I find really insightful about addiction, maybe they could help:
" "Addiction can be overcome with an individual's strong determination" is not the moral of this story.
I don't think it's an effective way to overcome addiction.
The message I want to send through this story is that solving a problem should not rest on the willpower of one person, but rather should be approached by creating a
situation that forces people to be in control.
We should recognize that
willpower is
finite.
And for most people, it does not last for long. Rather than painstakingly trying to maintain the same level of initial determination until the end, it is better to create a situation in which people can do nothing but achieve their intended goal whenever they find any willpower return to them.
The ultimate message of this story is about recognizing one's own reality and setting a sound goal.
And that in order to make progress toward that goal in reality, a system that leaves no choice but to move forward is needed in addition to one's determination"
I'm still trying to figure out what situation would force someone to move forward with their goal regarding addiction, but I really agree with some of the words they say. Addiction is a hell of a bitch and I hope you find something that helps you overcome it whenever you're tempted to do drugs, I know that feeling so well
