Today marks one year since I last had a mind-altering drink or drug, outside of doctors' prescriptions.
I'm still fairly addicted to caffeine, though... so maybe it's a small stretch to claim complete independence from substance-based addictions. I am glad that I don't have a dangerous sugar dependency - such as always drinking soft drinks or eating desserts.
Because of various clauses and conditions, this is probably why abstinence-based recovery, such as AA, restricts itself to one class of addictive substances (or behaviors) in each of the various Anonymous fellowships.
