It's been normal for me. I've got a bit over four months and still have 'disordered thoughts'. I've had a lot of tries at sobriety but this time seems to be 'right' as I'm able to talk myself out of such thoughts/cravings without a problem. As long as you can get past the urge to drink you'll be ok. I think it's our long-standing habit to 'medicate' with alcohol so any times of stress your mind is going back to its old coping mechanism. Just don't fall for it. The addict voice is lying to you.
