Good morning, 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!

A company called Notch. The alcohol-specific ones are here and they support a UK charity called Alcohol Change here in the UK.

I have "Sobriety rocks" in gold, then the various day count ones, and IWNDWYT 😁in purple, and "get your calm back 2022" in gold.

Mine are all on a loop attached to my keyring, but they do a couple of other ways of holding them as well.
