How can a person tell if a person has recovered or not? It's a process and never ends so when you say "recovered" it sounds like something that I've never witnessed.
I was sober 22 years and relapsed. I thought I had or was on the road to recovery but yet I drank again, merely as an experiment.
I don't believe there is such a thing "recovered", there is only recovering and it's impossible to get into someone's mind to know if they're verging on drinking.
