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!

day 26! im back baby sorry team forgot about lemmy I only use it for this community. stay strong friends, idk about yous but I cannot do it alone. so lucky with an awesome AA family first try. I really connect with other alcoholics, it's like we speak our own language and want each other to succeed and thrive. so if anyone has whatsapp needs a friend they can count on from australia msg me, or highly recommend checking out an AA meeting, took me a few years but the seed sprouted and it's a really painful but ultimately rewarding experience. somethings different about this go. im actually going to do it one day at a time wish you all the best for your recovery and thanks for being a part of mine

oh and there's 24/7 zoom meetings ive been in for emergencies, https://flying-sober.com/24-7-meetings/ highly recommend checking it out and really taking in what they say, repeat it in your head cause my head gets calm and serene when I listen to people at a meeting.
