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.

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'm sitting here, bored as hell in a sober living house. Struggling to not lose my mind right now, but just keep remembering I've got 37 days clean and sober for the first time in forever.

The cravings are real as fuck.

37 days is not bad at all, well done! Hope to see your 38 tomorrow.

I appreciate it. I'm struggling for sure. Stuck inside at the sober house for a few more days - blackout period and all that. The house is in the hood. Literally heard automatic gunfire last night. Ugh. I'm just venting and I'm done now. For now lol.

Vent away. I’m sorry the location sucks. My sister in law went thru it and she’s done amazingly well for two years now. It’s one day at a time. And we are always here when you need an ear. ❤️
