Pick up a few Freuds from the new penguin modern classics translations and then start with the Seminar from the beginning.
Good luck, because you can never get on top of Lacan, the preliminary reading would be too much, you'd have to read so much, he really was at the peak of everything. Though something here and there by Saussure or Jakobson or Benveniste would be helpful, you'll never be able to pin him down.
You have to let him pin YOU down.

It's not impossible. You just have to submit yourself to the Master in the transference. The Master is the subject supposed to know, aka. Descartes' God.
Lacanism is more a religion pretending to be psychoanalysis over anything else, and its followers border the cultist in personality.
