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/stopdrinking 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, lets not drink alcohol!
I will not be drinking today.
I will not be drinking today.
Holy fuck. 10 days. I made it to the double digits. I’m feeling pretty damn good, the cravings are beginning to subside, though my sleep is still hella jacked. Eventually it’ll even out, I’m sure.
But I’m so thankful for this small but powerful community. The support here is super motivating. The tips from people who have paved the way before me are making it onto a list for when I have a moment of weakness.
It feels hard at times, but it also feels worth it. One day at a time is still my mantra atm. I haven’t been able to plan past that concretely yet. IWNDWYT.
Congratulations!!🎉🎊
day 12. i gotta gtfo this hospital. this filthy old fuck excuse my french won’t stop throwing his cigarette butts down the drain when there’s a perfectly good ashtray. I’ve politely and impolitely asked him to use the ashtray, 5 different nurses have talked to him about it, yet he still does it. makes my blood boil. my detox is over im ready and motivated to get back to work and be productive, feels like I’m wasting money by not making money. plus I miss my dog and cat so bad it hurts.

Will the release you early?
looks like earliest I can see the psychiatrist is friday. 3 days to go. plus I think they banned shithead from smoking, boss nurse was talking about how it’s illegal and a privilege to smoke at a hospital and I haven’t seen him outside since.
Usually if they change your meds they want you there a few more days to make sure the dosage is correct. If you can afford it I wouldn’t rush it.
ok yeah you’ve got a v good point. ive been on olanzapine before but not w all my new meds. sleep might be an issue. plus old fart got banned from smoking/going outside hahaha he’s probably itching and sweating w 3 or 4 nicotine patches on
That’s a great visual! 🤣
