…I got on a lot of vitamins after my second slip and I attribute that in great part to my getting better mentally. I have continued to take vitamins, more than the recommended daily allowance and I have lost any desire to become intoxicated. I think some of the problem was my diet and a protein deficiency. I tried a higher protein diet for a period of time, I figured half the cooked food I grew up eating had done nothing for me and that I probably had been deficient for at least a decade before the alcohol became a problem.
I tried wheatgrass, spirulina, barley grass, soy protein and other plant proteins, egg derived amino acids, I stopped smoking used niacin, pantothenic acid and various other natural vitamins and supplements. I grew up eating lots of vegetables so that wasn’t a problem for me. I tried antabuse but it left a horrid taste in my mouth after awhile and I became frightened I might drink while taking it. I added exercise and improved my mental programming but I have not conquered the meditation yet.
I went through all that chastisement about taking too many vitamins, I had collected a bag of empty vitamin bottles and mental health and others all thought I was going to get hyper-vitaminosis. When I was in prison they forced me on meds and refused to give me a vitamin supplement. They told me of no deficiencies or elevated levels of anything yet they thought I needed lithium for a bipolar problem.
I take 1-2 grams of Vitamin C everyday based on papers published by Linus Pauling and various other books I read including Life Extension by Shaw and Pearson.
I think the only reason I developed a sluggish thyroid is because Phenylalanine made me a bit hyper so I used only Tyrosine for a period of time and I was using tea two or three times a day.
