If you want to count days, then being honest about it counts. Personally I don't think days are important.
Being honest with us drunks here on SR counts yes, but does it make up for being dishonest to the drunks at AA? I detect a part of you is not happy within your group and does not feel comfortable being honest. If you think others are lying about their sobriety and putting on a show, why be a part of it? Can you find a new group that allows you to be honest and where you respect and believe what those around you are saying?
