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!

    Starting today. Need to take a break for my sanity and my health. Always stressed out and not sure how I will do, but I will at least get through today.

      I was pleasantly surprised how noticably better my hangover-free mornings were! Stick with it. After a while, things started to taste better (like unsweetened teas).

        Yeah I have pulled this off for some months before and find that I really like early mornings and coffee, and after a while all the temporary dullness kind of starts to go away.

      If you don’t already, put together some kind of list of activities and things to distract you. I find that helps me when I start craving a drink. And maybe get some seltzers or something as well to drink instead.
