YESSSS… Finally effin Friday, :)
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!
Happy Friday! Imma celebrate by watching Star Trek with the wife and maybe getting a slushie from sonic. I will not drink alcohol with you guys today
Have some friends messaging me over with the opposite message and want to go to bed early to workout early AM, thank you for posting this, I needed reinforcement.
Yay! Reach out anytime. :)
Good afternoon, fellow sobernauts, IWNDWYT 😁!
Forgot to check in again this morning, but it’s 2240 where I am and I’m still sober. Had to rush the pup back to the ER vet because she ripped out all the stitches in her wound and she was wide open. Fortunately the vet doesn’t think she pierced her abdominal wall, but now the recovery time is going to be that much longer. Our e fund is now shot 😮💨 But that’s what it’s there for, and we’re lucky enough to have had one at all in this economy. Time to start rebuilding.
Anyhow, IWNDWYT!
Ouch!! Hugs to your puppy. (They will always be our kids).
Thank you and she really is my baby. Out of the 3 we have she’s the only one we rescued as a puppy. Potty trained her and everything. Learned that I am NOT the person with the patience for that! 😂
So the other two we rescued came to us later in life. They’re all goof balls and bad babies!
I’ve been sober for 5.5 years. Recently we had a party and someone gave us champagne. I thought, well it’s been 5.5 years, I should be able to handle a glass. After a couple of sips I felt the urges so much more intense than before. I had another glass, already causing some weird looks from close people, and felt bad afterwards. Since then, now and then the idea of trying again slipped into my mind. Feels like my mind is tricking me that I should try again. We’re on a weekend break away now, so another reason for my mind to say that it would be okay to drink.
I read my notes from when I quit, with reasons why I quit, as I thought I would need them later. That definitely helped. Still, having urges :(
Why can’t I drink like most normal people :( Thanks for reading.
Iwndwyt.
Good to see you again. :)
