This is a place to motivate each other to control or stop drinking. It is also a place for non drinkers to discuss and share.

We welcome anyone who wishes to join in by asking for advice, sharing our experiences and stories, or just encouraging someone who is trying to quit or cut down.

Please post only when sober; you’re welcome to read in the meanwhile.

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, let’s not drink alcohol!

I’ll be hosting this week, so, good morning, fellow sobernauts, IWNDWYT 😁!

Hit two weeks sober today. Haven't been making it more than a week in months. Cravings aren't too bad at the moment. Feeling a bit more confident this time around

Great Thursday/Pi Day/My Fair Lady's Birthday! Her friends threw her a little birthday bonfire with hot dogs and cake and fire twirling! It was such a beautiful evening! I got her a wrist-rocket, fist full of big ol ball bearings and a Reese's Peanut Butter Bunny and she fuckin loves it!! She's mid 40's-ish.. but, this was her first birthday party.!!.. I wasn't aware of that, or I would've probably gone out bigger for it, but I honestly think that it's even better that it was just friends and loved ones showing her she's special today. Came out just perfect. Took the long way home, stopped and admired the crisp clear night sky and now we're home. Beautiful fucking birthday. And we stayed sober. Well, maybe she was a wee tad tipsy, but not drink for certain. Alcohol isn't her demon, anyways.. Hope everyone's Pi Day was just as perfect, if not even better!
