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.
For the next 24 hours, let’s not drink alcohol!
It is Monday. Usually I would be grumpy today, thirsty and slightly hangover from Saturday. Not today!
I’ve got a bit over a month under my belt now. I went to a barbecue yesterday and didn’t drink any alcohol, but did have a CBD seltzer water drink. Another guy showed up who had been drinking the same flavor. We both joked that CBD was taking off as an alternative to alcohol and more people were picking it up. I don’t feel high or like I -have- to drink one everyday. If I do have one, it’s one and I’m done.
In any case, today is another day I won’t be drinking. IWNDWYT
Good on you for reaching one month! I had never heard of CBD drinks here in New Zealand. A quick Google shows me it’s used as a pain killer? Can you just buy it in the supermarket?
CBD is a non psychoactive chemical, so it isn’t THC that you smoke to get high. It purportedly helps relax you and reduce inflammation. It really varies by store - some carry them, some don’t. They are still relatively new as a product here in the Seattle area.
