Good afternoon and sorry I’m late today, 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!

    today is my first day sober. in the emergency room waiting to see mental health team, i dont remember anything but i drank a slab and took 2weeks worth of meds cause i was frustrated about many awful sleeps in a row, waking up in a puddle of sweat after 3hrs and i wont even get into the retraumatising nightmare. v hopeful these guys give me the all clear, spent so much time in hospitals since 21.

    my shoes and socks were in a separate bag and i went to put my socks on they were covered in bindies so they must have had to chase me through a field. shrug. big dip in progress but im ready for another go.

          im damn near unstoppable when it comes to drugs and alcohol… send my buddy a msg saying I’m going to drink whatevers left, take a few days worth of pills (9) and crash for 48 and she called the ambulance quick math, 2700mg of clonadine and 135mg of zopiclone, and they didn’t even pump my stomach they could just tell im a beast, so sort of a waste of time and resources but it sure was nice having benzos for breakfast
