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, lets not drink alcohol!

Thank you! It seems like such a small thing at 4 days, but honestly, my "record" of consecutive sober days since 2020 is 5. I haven't even been able to make it a full week so far, and certainly not double digits.

But the 24 hour mantra is the thing I kept repeating to myself throughout the day to beat the tempting thoughts, actually!

"It's just for today. Fuck tomorrow. Focus on today and the fact that you're not drinking tonight!"
