This is a place to motivate each other to control or stop drinking. It is also a place for non drinkers to discuss and share.

We welcome anyone who wishes to join in by asking for advice, sharing our experiences and stories, or just encouraging someone who is trying to quit or cut down.

Please post only when sober; you’re welcome to read in the meanwhile.

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/stopdrinking 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!

seems like the holiday may have taken a few of us out. That's ok, i learned the hard way that once your on this path there's no getting off it, so i'll just stay on it. IWNDWYT!

I did not make it through the Thanksgiving holiday.

However, I'm here to try again. One day at a time. 24 hours.

IWNDT.

Welcome back! You were missed. 😁

Thanks! The guilt was real though. I also had to do the anxiety-induced "ohshitwhatdidIpostonLemmy" thing when I woke up on Saturday morning 😮‍💨.

I swear it's like I forget how bad I do with this.

But maybe, just maybe, I can round out the end of the year better.
