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 5 today -- got a social event this evening at my fave pub (across the street from my flat). Gonna be tricky, but we'll get there! IWNDWYT!

Hopefully everybody has a good Wednesday - we're halfway through the week, and heading towards the weekend quickly! What's on people's agendas for the end of the week? 👀

gz on a business week. first week sucks, good luck with your event, have an escape plan! someone you can call. I've been in my favourite pub 3 weeks sober friday night happy hour, atmosphere popping off. I was there for work but it was deadly I got in and out quicksmart. didn't relapse, but didn't last. im not saying avoid events or alcohol entirely but stay safe and call someone. do u have WhatsApp?

Yeah it's been weird this year! The past three years I've done the first four months sober but this year I just can't get off the ground for some reason 😅 well done on not relapsing last time you were in that pub!
