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!

    51 just gone full stop on the amends, feel like I’m going around injuring people by even asking. a lot of these ppl hate me. just got so caught up in the steps and progress I was inadvertently trying to buy my peace of mind at the expense of others.

      “You can offer an apology to others, but you can’t force them to accept it” can be a hard lesson to receive. People are entitled to say “no” or “not yet.”

      The good thing about apologies is that they don’t go off, and once you put them out there, they can wait.

        yep that’s so true. or come back with way worse stuff than I was apologizing for that I have no memory of. challenging step, difficult to navigate.
