It's a little different to being in recovery I think - then, the reason is imposed on us from the outside...in recovery, the reason really needs to come from within....

That's probably why you couldn't wait to get back drinking, too - you were on a break...not in recovery, if you see the difference?

I really do think you'll see a marked difference after 9 months of recovery

I love this and totally agree with Dee, Luling. This is the first time in my LIFE that I have actually been in recovery instead of just refraining..it is TOTALLY different, takes work, and you reap benefits and are not just white knuckling in abstinence, wondering and fretting over when and where that next drink will be...recovery sets you free!
