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!

IWNDWYT! Temptation was real today but I got a big diet coke and got through it.

I made my first amends. imagine going to someone you've harmed and saying I'm trying to stay sober and my next step is doing what I can to clear any disharmony, list off all the horrible shit I did I can remember, then get absolutely steamrolled by way worse shit that I can't remember but can't deny? like flattened me like a cartoon. wow. alcoholics have shit memory and I was nowhere near ready. back to step 8
