Good going, Ryan. 90 days is big. Looking back on my first couple of years, 90 was important, then 6 months and a year. I remember having a few "this is it?" moments around those anniversaries, however, so try and be mentally prepared. It's a realization that life sometimes is just as difficult sober as it is drunk. No one throws a parade for 6 months or a year of sobriety. That's why it's so important to attend AA or celebrate your milestones here on SR -- where we do at least throw mini-parades! Learn from other people's mistakes in losing their sobriety and avoid those potholes yourself. Continue to focus on single days of sobriety, and begin helping others here on SR who are struggling. Help others learn from your achievements and failures. That has gone a long way to helping me remain sober for 806 days.
