Comment on Is it true that addicts never stop being addicts, they just replace their addiction?

I had zero understanding of just how strong alcoholism could be, until I switched metabolisms, from vata-metabolism to pitta-metabolism ( read Frawley’s “Ayurvedic Healing” and Frawley & Kozak’s “Yoga for Your TYPE” books, to understand the different metabolisms, & how they alter one’s life ).

In pure pitta-metabolism, alcohol-craving was ferrocious.

( it took me a dozen years to break from vata to pitta metabolism, btw: it isn’ something easily accomplished.

The “obesity epidemic”, however, is really a kapha-metabolism epidemic, which White prejudice won’t tolerate to be labeled correctly:

obesity’s the symptom, not the cause. )

If I ever get locked back in pure-pitta, I’ll have to never have any alcohol to drink, EVER, while in it.

Currently I’m in a mixed metabolism, so it isn’t lethally-dangerous to me, but it still munges meditation-capability, so I don’t bother wasting money on it for that reason.
