What is time? Well too deep and quantum physics or too relatable in that relativity way? What is sobriety time? Anyone can get time to add up whether that be on the in's or outs. It is how free you are on the inside of your own precieved perception of your brain that matters. Much like with life itself it is the quality not the quantity that is important. Unlike in life itself sometimes depending on our situation, in sobriety time we have choices of how far we want to go with it, when we want to reset the clock, and whether we want to continue to try to change or not. To say we did it because of a compulsive disorder that has been labeled a disease due the the progressive nature of it. Which I am not denying that it has the probability to get worse and never go back to a normal baseline of behavior. What I am saying you always have a choice and to have a lable set to a behavior can be more of a hinderance than help sometimes..we say this is what I am so flute it. This is how much time I have or how different I am from others, yes we may have differences, but we are all on borrowed time waiting for our clocks to reset in life. Whether you choose to reset your sobriety time or you have 1000000000 years of time may you have peace of mind and heart and soul with it instead of saying this the amount of time I have and I am miserable..so it goes.

What feels right for me, only speaking for me. I have a drinking problem but if I don't drink No problem. I know it's more complicated than that but waking up every day to confirm a problem and a plan to fight it seems self defeating in the long haul, certainly important in the beginning though.
