Hey man, it is what it is. I mean, look at it. Celebrating sobriety by drinking? Gimme a fücking break. Call it whatever you want, use whatever gentle euphemism you prefer.
Some people always find a reason to drink.. I was the same way. I think that's a good sign that you might have a problem.

Ah yeah. I did this many times and then, shockingly, ended up back at my “hiding mini shots, drunk every night, violently hungover every day, desperately praying to get out of the cycle” state every time.
Even my 6 month milestone, there was a little alcoholic-whisper in my mind saying “You did it. Now drink!”
So no, it doesn’t sound weird. It sounds like classic addiction and I relate to it well.
And I certainly would not drink to celebrate milestones now, that’s for sure!
