The idea of not relying on drugs is so interesting. This neuroscientist actually just gave a talk about ways to fix depression/addiction/mental illness without any drugs: http://bit.ly/1D1Y5BE. Brains are really complicated and drugs are very crude but sometimes effective ways to combat mental illness. That's one of the best ways to move forward might instead be exploding your brains on internal mechanism to require itself. Just wondering what everyones thoughts are on this. I definitely recommend watching the talk, its v. interesting

For what you want to do I would learn C, or C++. However, I've always found Java really useful to start of with. It covers core concepts really well, and help give you a grounding to build up on
