I’m pledging myself to not drinking today, and invite you to do the same.

Maybe you’re new to not drinking and have a hard time deciding what to do next. Maybe 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!

This pledge is a statement of intent. Today we don’t set out trying not to drink, we make a conscious decision not to drink. It sounds simple, but all of us know it can be hard and sometimes impossible. The group can support and inspire us, yet only one person can decide if we drink today. Give that person the right mindset!

What happens if we can’t keep to our pledge? We give up or try again. And since we’re here in stopdrinking, we’re not ready to give up.

What this is: A simple thread where we commit to not drinking alcohol for the next 24 hours, posting to show others that they’re not alone and making a pledge to ourselves. Anybody can join and participate at any time, you do not have to be a regular at stopdrinking or have followed the pledges from the beginning.

What this isn’t: A good place for a detailed introduction of yourself, directly seek advice or share lengthy stories. You’ll get a more personal response in your own thread.

This thread will be recreated from time to time, but this community isn’t busy enough to have a daily thread like other places. So feel free to post here every day you need to.

    Today I will not be drinking. Drinking brings nothing positive to me.

    I’m going to focus on my health this weekend. Eat right, lose weight, and practice good hygiene. I wouldn’t do any of those things while drinking.

    It is Sunday, usually I would wake up with a hangover. Not today! Going for a hike today and play board games and xbox with my family. Iwndwyt

      Happy Father’s day! Hope you have an awesome day. Here in NZ I have to wait until September for father’s day… Weird that it isn’t the same day across the globe.
