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!

I will not drink with you today!

Wish me luck, I’m finishing up my last application essay for a masters of social work program that I’m applying to here soon. I will also be applying to a clinical mental health counseling program. Yay for mid life crises and mid life career changes :)

That’s amazing! And so bold of you to try something new mid-life. I’m not certain I’m ready for that yet. 🤔

[–] rosamundi@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago
