Good point.
It helps to have a history of sobriety under your belt, I find hitting 30 days is a massive confidence boost...
On the other hand, after 187 days sober, I decided I wanted to drink and so I did. I knew I was capable of abstaining, but I wanted to get drunk, so what did it matter if I *could* make the choice.
Where ever I go, however much time elapses, I'm always right where I am, an alcoholic.
