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!

I wasn’t supposed to drink today but I did. Now I feel like in for a penny in for a pound. I already messed up, so maybe I’ll do better tomorrow? I tell myself this a lot though…

So, why did you drink? How did you get to that point? What supports do you have in place that you can reach for when the urge to drink is at a 1 or a 2, so it never gets to a 9 or 10?
