True freedom will come when you welcome the Addictive Voice as a natural phenomenon, never to be feared. The very idea that the absence of AV is a good thing is itself the AV, suggesting that only in the absence of desire will you be "safe" from drinking again. If you never drink, who cares that that stupid voice says, anyway?
You should be able to walk through a distillery if you had good reason to be there, or sleep with a bottle of vodka under your pillow, knowing that you are perfectly safe. If the AV pops up, just observe it, and think "Oh, look, that stupid Beast wants to drink. What else is new? I guess it's too bad for the Beast that I don't drink. After all the trouble IT caused me, though, I'm certainly going to enjoy watching IT squirm a little."
