Welcome aboard! Different perspectives in this sub-forum, including that many of us don't consider ourselves to be in "recovery," we simply don't drink anymore. Not drinking is the cure and the path to freedom. We have made no sacrifice by quitting booze, we have given nothing up. There are no benefits to drinking, life is better without it. Congrats on your sober time.
If you're interested in another non-12 step perspective, I would recommend Jason Vale "Kick the Drink... Easily". It will completely change the way you look at alcohol and society's relationship to it.
