Went to My First NA Meeting

I just got back from my first NA meeting. I introduced myself to everyone and shared a little about myself. I listened to everything and tried my best but honestlIy I'm not sure if I got anything out of it. I was craving pretty bad before the meeting and I'm still craving pretty bad even though so far I have managed to hold off. I know it's not a magic bullet and I need to keep going back I guess I just hoped that it would help with the cravings a little bit more ya know?

I got a few numbers and names and I might make some calls if I start getting close to using again. I also plan to look for another meeting tomorrow but what I really feel like I need is strategies for dealing with cravings and for recovery in general and I'm not sure I will get that from NA. Am I doing something wrong or does anybody have any insight on what else I can do to get more out of the meetings?
