Congratulations on 7 years Myth! That is a serious amount of time (a biblical amount, you might say) I do enjoy reading your thoughtful posts too.
Q.) How many existentialists does it take to change a lightbulb?
A.) Two. One to change the bulb and one to bemoan the darkness.

I often ask this question about cravings - although mine have surprisingly vanished right now after 9 months - do you get still get any slight cravings to drink even after so long? You’re obviously strong enough to deal with it if so, but I’m curious.
As I say, I’m pleasantly surprised my cravings, which had been lurking in the background albeit weaker than my early withdrawal days, have gone. I’m wondering if it’s a temporary thing in my case.
Well done again 😀

Congrats!
Congrats!
Thanks! It's so amazing and awesome that you all are still here. I sometimes think of the 'old timers' that were here when I joined but that no longer post. I wonder, did they go back out there? Did they die? Did they just reach the point where they're strong enough that they no longer need SR? In my own case I have no urge to drink again but I still hang here every day. It's a reminder of what I have to look forward to if I ever drink, and it's gratifying to give back to those who saved me when I needed the support. With certainty I can say I've received more than I can ever repay!
