Bout to pass out and I normally pledge before I do. So here’s my commitment from me to you!

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! 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!

Since July last year, I quit drinking. I fell off the wagon, once, a month later.

I haven’t had a drop since. I don’t even want it anymore, or have any desire.

Anyone who wants to stop? You can do it. I believe in you.
