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!

Yeah everyone's different. To some people your advice might actually be harmful, so readers be ware.

Anyway, cutting way back and then switching to non alcoholic beers definitely worked for me.

Now I reach for tea after work, but if I'm going to be around drinkers (again this might be very very bad advice for some), I find a non alcoholic beer pleasant enough.
