The Daily Check-in for 16 May 2025 - just for today, we are not drinking!
Good morning, 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!
I think I'm going to take sobriety more honestly now. On Monday I was at work and threw up some stomach acid. I decided to take a half day and told my boss who was ok with it. I went to shut down my computer and next thing I knew I was in an ambulance. Just got out of hospital yesterday, supposedly I had a seizure from withdrawal.
Im taking next week off from work to take care of myself but that was scary and I don't want to go through that again. I knew I was getting bad but didn't expect it to be that bad. I never got wasted, just commonly had a buzz to feel normal. The hospital stay sucked and I was completely out of it for most of it. Now I can't drive for 3 months(not a dui but state law regarding seizures).
Welcome, we're glad to have you here. There's a lot of support and suggestions in the pinned post on the sidebar. Feel free to bounce questions or ideas off the group.
oh wow sorry to hear that. Take care of yourself.
<hugs>
hey how you feeling now?
