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!

47, court went as well as possible, 9mo no license and good behaviour bond, 2 years interlock and $900 fine. I deserve far worse but I wasnt about to butt in and ask for it. the whole thing has been a blessing in disguise, the gift of desperation led me to find a sponsor and smash through 11/12 steps in a month. wasn't interested in a new perspective or way of living, I just wanted to get sober, but now I've got all 3 and an unconditionally loving higher power in my life, it's not possible to go back to that life. making the most of every moment.
