I wonder; why do you ‘think’ it’s for good this time?
11 months is a wonderful foundation for sobriety.
What do you think might help you support yourself in moving from ‘I think it’s for good this time’ to ‘I choose to live in sobriety’?
As for you post... I know as a drinker I often said and did things that celebrated alcohol and kept it ‘cool’ and ‘normal’ to avoid looking at it honestly.
When my friends say things like that now I usually smile and say some soft-worded version of ‘boy, I remember those days. I’m sure grateful they’re behind me’.
Carrying the message in this way can often be a hand reaching out to someone seeking freedom from alcohol.
