I’m one month, I will have one year of sobriety behind me.

How many of you ever played with the idea of drinking (or using) again at such milestones?

Yes but it was when I had less time or one of the many times I quit drinking but was not in recovery. I now know that alcoholism is genetic and no matter how much behavioral work I do I still can't change that I derive seven times the pleasure of a normal person from drinking. For that reason it just isn't worth the risk.

All I have to do is pay attention in meetings and on here .and see people not making it.

Ya. I keep coming back to the faces of my children. They’re my motivation.
