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!

    Midnight thirty. I’m about to get up and go to work. Happy Monday, all.

    I had a good, sober week. I’m flying to South America on Friday for a long vacation. I was WRECKED last time I was in that land.

    I’m connected with some people in Chile on Whatsapp from their central office. Hopefully meet up, even if there aren’t any English meetings there.

    I don’t have to drink today. Pretty damn grateful for that.

    I went to a concert on Saturday. The lead singer talked about being sober for the last seven years. After the show I made sure to tell him a lot of music, including his, has really helped me quit and stay off drinking. Seeing the care he put into the crowd wanting everyone to do well and there was a lot of compassion and love, it’s special. This guy I don’t know at all looked at me and said “We’re doing this together a day at a time”. It’s really sticking with me. We don’t have to know each other to be there for one another

        The Taxpayers. They originated nearish to me (I’m in Seattle right now, they started in Portland). They stopped touring together for a while though and different members moved to different areas so I’m really glad I got to see them

    Happy Monday everyone! Been flighty lately, sorry about that! Didn’t drink over Satuday/Sunday but was very distracted over the weekend with my pupper!

    IWNDWYT!

    Happy April fools day y’all! I am so old I’ve run out of pranks to pull. (SIGH). Any wholesome last minute ideas? 😈🤣

    Good morning, fellow sobernauts, IWNDWYT 😁!

    No April Fool’s jokes here, a friend once explained that as she is autistic she finds it confusing and distressing, so I decided not to add to her burden (plus I’m crap at thinking up ideas, so woohoo, got me off the hook there).
