Triggers are for guns and horses. I could always point to some trigger when I was drinking. Today they are all still there but I see them for what they are - excuses.
The reason I like to say "I have recovered" is because I have gotten alcohol out of my life and out of my mind. There are no triggers, temptations or delusions there to make it even necessary for me to choose to drink or not drink.
Not drinking has nothing to do with why I am sober today.
