The Daily Check-in for 1 January 2025 - just for today, we are not drinking!
Good morning and happy new year, fellow sobernauts, IWNDWYT đ!
We may be anonymous strangers on the internet, but we have one thing in common. We may be a world apart, but weâre here together!
Welcome to the 24 hour pledge! Iâm pledging myself to not drinking today, and invite you to do the same.
Maybe youâre new to c/stop drinking and have a hard time deciding what to do next. Maybe youâre like me and feel you need a daily commitment or maybe youâve been sober for a long time and want to inspire others.
It doesnât matter if youâre 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, letâs not drink alcohol!
Depending on your level of use, be aware that alcohol withdrawal can directly kill you. Be careful if you notice any intense symptoms like cold sweats, tremors, nausea and vomiting.
Better to cut it out early for sure. It didn't take me years to go from being able to quit without issue to having seizures in medical detox so bad they had to keep me sedated for 3 days.
