I chose 6 months in the poll although it was probably a little sooner than that. When I started working the 9th step in earnest and started practicing the 10th step daily things really started to smooth out for me, which was at around 4-5 months.

I had 2 other stretches of long-term sobriety before this current one and I'm having a hard time coming up with a time frame for those. The first 2 times I got sober I went to lots of AA meetings early on and things definitely got better, but I never worked the steps. After my experience this time I have a hard time saying my sobriety the first 2 times ever reached the level of contentment that I have now after working the steps.
