Once you have a long stretch of sobriety, I sometimes wonder if putting yourself in the company of short timers who are still wistfully talking about drinking/using is a good idea. Even at only 3 months, on a lot of days the only time I think anything about alcohol or drugs is when I come on this board.
The flip side is that you can help the folks just starting out and that the daily reminder could be helping me stay vigilant. When I have started back before, one of the things that makes me feel like I can handle it is that it has been a non issue that hasn't even crossed my mind in a while so I am obviously not under its grip.
Sneaking up on 100 days; Tuesday, I think.
