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.

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!

Day 18! (Day 17) Made it through a rather rough evening of just wanting to fold up and get hammered last night. Slept so damn good, though. Today's a good day to fish and a good day to not drink with ya!

Edit: Alcohol is a hell of a drug.. Got to counting this morning and had to roll back through this thread... I somehow entirely skipped my 'Day 9'.. Went from 'Day 8' right on into 'Day 10'.. (some of those sleepless and near-sleepless nights are a tadpole froggy, though) I suppose it'd be stranger even still had I quit sloggin booze and Also accurately tracked the days since.. There's nothing I'm not really adept at fuckin-up! Still not boozin with y'all today, though!

I had amazing sleep too last night! This week was frantic I needed it. Glad you got some too.

Good to hear! Frantic weeks (for me anyways) keep the body and the brain occupied. I kind of welcome the change of pace, if not the chaos.
