New Month - New Pact!
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!

    It’s Nov 1st and I’m trying again! Gave into my weaknesses there for a bit. But gotta keep trying!

    Good luck to all!

      love to hear it! i had to try at least 100 times, took me years but i made sure to try something new each time so i learned something news each time and eventually sobriety stuck. You can do this! i believe it in you. IWNDWYT

        Thank you thank you! The support of this community is wild in such an awesome way! It definitely pays to have the people who have tackled this beast before you to give advice/guidance and I’m very grateful!

        I’m definitely learning that boredom is a big trigger for me, so picking up new hobbies/interests seemed beneficial for sure. Ones that requires my hands and doesn’t allow me to sit on my ass for too long for sure. It becomes way too easy for me to “just grab one”.
