My safe zone extends no farther than it needs to, and that is the outline of my head. I am ok with alcohol in my house and seeing it being consumed, as my sobriety doesn't require that it be out of reach of my hand.

I think if I saw alcohol as a treat now, I would be in trouble. I am beginning to see the same issue with hi GI foods too. If it is a treat, then I will treat myself. On the other hand, if I see it as a choice between two outcomes, and one is towards my goal and the other is against it, the rational choice becomes very simple.
