YOU can do something about it though.
It's your body (the human/flesh you live inside of) that has the addiction,
NOT you (the soul/spiritual-Being within).
You can and must take control of it (the human "self"), and make it do what
YOU want it to do, rather than what it wants to do.
The more spiritually awake one becomes, the more the wretchedness in this world is seen. And yes, it is almost unbearable to those who see it as it
really is. But the "self" (and thus the world)
CAN and
MUST be
OVERCOME, including
ALL human addictions (drinking, smoking, drugs, gluttony, etc).
