´óÏó´«Ã½

Mae Martin is kicking the habit.

She’s exploring how we as a society think about addiction, and on a personal level, trying to understand who she is now she's no longer addicted to anything.

Through the lens of her own experience, this guide follows Mae chronologically through a lifetime of obsessive behaviour and addiction with all her characteristic wit and levity.

What makes a habit an addiction?

As a young child, Mae may not have been addicted yet, but she was certainly OBSESSED. She's never just "liked" things, she's always loved them. Mae is finally drawing connections between her obsessive, all-consuming patterns of behaviour, and examining why they might occur.

Written by and starring Mae Martin – an award-winning stand-up and Edinburgh comedy award nominee.
