Good morning and happy new year, 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!
I’ve got 38 days today. Last night was my first NYE without alcohol in decades. Tried to sleep through it, but was woken to hundreds of gun shots, which is fun.
But I made it. Planning on hitting a meeting today with a house mate from the sober house. I’m not much of one for 12 step meetings, but it’s a low cost to pay for the opportunity to get my life back together over the next 13 months in this program.
Congrats on overcoming that hurdle. Holidays can be really tough especially that first one when youre used to getting smashed.
