Good morning, fellow sobernauts, IWNDWYT 😁!

We may be anonymous strangers on the internet, but we have one thing in common. We may be a world apart, but we’re here together!

Welcome to the 24 hour pledge! I’m pledging myself to not drinking today, and invite you to do the same.

Maybe you’re new to c/stop drinking and have a hard time deciding what to do next. Maybe you’re like me and feel you need a daily commitment or maybe you’ve been sober for a long time and want to inspire others.

It doesn’t matter if you’re still hung over from a three day bender or been sober for years, if you just woke up or have already completed a sober day. For the next 24 hours, let’s not drink alcohol!

So far so good, I'm still going strong. I set up a meeting to get started with an addiction counselor on the 17th.

Glad to hear the others are doing well!

That’s awesome, I need to get back into therapy. Tough to find someone with room for new patients nowadays but I think I have a leads and need to stop procrastinating

I'm about to lose mine in a few weeks because I'm moving :( I'm at a point where we were going to be cutting back and stopping soon, but still... If something pops up and I need more, will have to find a new one

Yeah, it can be tough, I had to call 7 different places.
