I suppose I am coming at it from a different perspective. Urges/wantings/impulses are felt and experienced all the time and for various reasons, acting on them is another matter, comes from a 'higher' region, yes?
Analogous may be , whether internet legend or true, the story of a woman that tried to follow the teachings of a certain yogi who claimed to have not consumed material sustanence for years and yet survived. She may well have utitlised the AVRT to quell her urges/desires/impulses to eat or drink and acted by not eating or drinking, but the story ends with her demise, from extreme malnutrition and dehydration. She cured her addiction to food and water, good for her?
Celibacy is a manmade construct and something the midbrain never heard of. Alcohol, pot, coke intoxication is a manmade product of a different species that the midbrain never heard of prior also, but confuses it for 'needful' urge.
I guess I just do not 'get' celibacy as it may relate to addiction.
