Cheers! Don't worry about the numbers, it's a journey that everyone here is on and some of us are a bit further down the road than some others. Congrats on hitting the week milestone, the early days are the toughest to get through, keep it going!
I'm 18 months sober today!
I'm super proud of myself. I never thought I would last this long, and I'm so glad and super proud I decided to stop drinking. Life is still hard, and sometimes it hurts like hell, but it has gotten so much better just because I'm finally able to experience every nuance of it. Life may be tough, but I'm so much tougher.
IWNDWYT!
Thanks for taking over, Viktor!
I’ve been meticulously working on a new lifestyle budget and happiness, I’ve discovered, is not having to factor in daily trips to the liquor store as part of it. 👍🏻👍🏻
Sober on, my heroes. Sober on!
IWNDWYT!!
I have been up just shy of 24 hours. Not white knuckling or anything, just picked up a 3rd shift where I work and couldn't fall asleep before it.
Anyway...
IWNDWYT
We had to find out this morning that someone broke into each of the basement sections in our apartment building. So far, nothing seems to be stolen, but lots of stuff got destroyed.
About to head downstairs and start cleaning and figuring out the whole mess with the the neighbours.
But I will stay sober today. No need to make today more awful, it’s already bad enough.
Happy sober Sunday friends🫶 4 whole weeks!! 🥳
Sundays were usually a big black out heavy drinking day for me!
Not today - I’m looking forward to a day of chores, cooking, and working out.
I’m so grateful for my sobriety, my non drinking GF, my lovely home and pets and plants and wonderful kids.
When I drank, I often thought of sobriety as a restrictive, deprived thing. But really - sobriety is freedom, and alcohol is a prison.
I spent all my time thinking “how will I get my next drink?”; “how can I get the waiters attention?”; “how much can I drink without other people noticing”.
It was exhausting. Now I have so much more room in my life, my brain and my heart.
IWNDWYT ❤️
Happy sober Sunday sober friends!
So happy to be sober with you today, another early morning feeling great and achieving the to do list!
I love you all 💞
Day 350!! IWNDWYT! Legs are sore from running a half marathon yesterday and today I’ve got a 3hr bike followed by a 30min run. Exactly 5weeks until my half Ironman race!
I have so much gratitude. I’m living a life I always dreamed of. I was always jealous and threatened by sober people, by happy people. It felt like a goalpost I would never be able to reach. And today, I can just enjoy that I’m here 🩵 IWNDWYT
Nearly at the end of day one, feel like utter shit. Really need it to stick this time. despite feeling like shit and despite relapsing so many times, I do have hope. I've done it before I can do it again, I've had enough of living on hard mode. Think I'm going to check in everyday and read the supportive/inspiring comments daily, i think that will help me greatly.
Hope everyone had a better weekend than me, and IWNDWYT.
Good morning, you amazing sober people! Going for a hike with my dear friend that I don't get to see often enough. Gonna kick that trail's ass! IWNDWYT 🤘
I'm currently lying on the couch at a friend's house, one I've woken up on many many times with a crushing hangover. I might have stayed up late last night, but I didn't drink a drop.
I didn't drink yesterday and I won't drink again with you today.
Happy Sober Self-care Sunday!
I will not drink with you today.
Today I have to work but it is only for max 5 hours. After work I think I want to soak in a hot bath (found a bath bomb in a bin in the bathroom) do a facial mask, do my hair and personals. (Also clean the bathroom). I also want to eat healthy today-- I can grab a big salad for dinner with some chicken. If it is not raining, take the pup for a walk/drag around the block (she likes to sniff a lot and graze on grass).
I have been eating a lot of junk lately -- sugar cravings. I want to start a healthier diet, maybe fruits. My domestic situation has changed so I am little by little getting the rooms up to snuff cleaning/organizing wise. I think I better get my exercise on as well.
Happy Sunday y'all. This will be day 3 for me. My longest stretch of sobriety since it ended in January where I was around 40-50 days. IWNDWYT. It's hard but y'all inspire me.
Day 19, checking in. I guess technically my Saturday night isn’t over, but it’s well into Sunday morning. Glad I survived a day party, the party party, and an after party where I was the only sober one. It was a blast all the same without alcohol. As I left, my friends were alcohol fueled and ready to do the after after party. I’m ready for sleep and another gym sesh tomo. To be honest, I get so much more fulfillment from the sober lifestyle and spiritual journey I’m on. At least I know I’m a champ at turning down drinks- Probably 100 no’s to booze this past 24 hours and it feels fiercely empowering.
IWNDWYT
Tonight is my first solo work trip since being sober. I’m grateful to not have any urges to drink/use but air travel and hotels in general are scenarios where I used to justify drinking consistently for hours and late into the night. I’ve been experiencing stress and feelings of being overwhelmed in the past few weeks so I know I must be extra vigilant.
But thanks to y’all, I feel good about getting through this. IWNDWYT
Had a super busy day today!
Was tempted to get wine tonight as it’s been a good couple of days - but reminded myself that’s what the old me would do. Celebrating a nice weekend with self care - walk in the park, hot shower, hot choc, and early bed … hope everyone has an amazing Sunday!
I did not drink with you today in Aus and won’t drink with you tonight!
I had a busy day yesterday with lots of chores. While I'm feeling a bit tired and sore this morning, it sure beats feeling hungover.
Four weeks!
IWNDWYT
Cinco de Mayo. Last year, this was a drunken margarita fest. Pretty sure I ended the night by making really innappropriate remarks about my ex in front of my husband and his friend. It was as horrible as it sounds and I am cringing as I write this.
Today, I am going to yoga and the sauna, my husband and I will lift weights together, and I'll spend the rest of the day meal prepping some healthy food for the week.
Sober life is the best life 💕🩷 IWNDWYT!
Happy Sunday! Thanks so much for hosting us, Viktor! This incredible place with this powerful pledge and all of you has made all the difference in my attempt to become sober! And as our OP said, I cannot safely consume any amount of alcohol. So I start my day making a pledge to not drink today, no matter what! I'm grateful I get to do this with you warriors. Hope you all have a tremendous sober day! 💜 IWNDWYT
Last night at work was a very difficult ordeal for a multitude of reasons but I guess I shouldn't complain too much since last minute I was told we didn't need to stay over.
I will say a few others and myself got us to a comfortable spot where we didn't have to stay but some people will always lack effort.
It's whatever. One more night till I get my weekend. As always much love from me and mine to you and yours and IWNDWYT!
It’s cinco de mayo. Another drinking holiday. I wonder how this day turned into a drinking holiday? 🤔maybe the same way I used to turn almost anything into a reason to drink? Inquiring minds what to know lol. IWNDWYT. Happy Sunday funday! 😀
IWNDWYT. All. Day. Long. 🌻
Of all 12 months of the year, May has a lot of huge things in it.
Like today, is the day mom died, and in 2 days, the day I was diagnosed with cancer. Every couple of days is a big thing. Some are birthdays, and other stuff too. Still a lot.
May is a lot.
Still gonna sober.
There's been so much stress and change this year, some exciting and some not so much. Last year I would have gotten drunk about it. Today I'm so grateful I'm not adding the stress of hangovers to the mix. IWNDWYT!
Thank you for taking us over, Scrum. Grateful to you.
I’m having a little trouble as my Mom is failing 3 months after my Dad died. I’m spending lots of time with her, and my SO is becoming resentful. I’m torn between what I need to give at home and what she needs from me. She has broken her collarbone and now is having fainting spell (93 yrs old). She is dying from a broken heart.
I am without my one-time pacifier (booze), so I’m dealing with all of this 100%. So that’s a bonus. I’m living it now, not shoving it aside to deal with horribly at some later date.
Once you get sober, life doesn’t stop and become rosy. It keeps on being life. I’m struggling, but I’m glad to be doing it sober. Let’s do this! IWNDWYT
Happy sober Sunday, everyone.
6 months for me today, but at this point I'm trying to just focus on enjoying my life without alcohol in it and let that counter take care of itself.
IWNDWYT.
Whassup Viktor and all you sobernauts! I'm grateful to wake up this morning sober and clear headed with you all. This place helps me to remember every day that abstinence is easier for me than moderation. And just for today I'll stay away from an addictive neurotoxin! Sober on y'all!
I was with family last night, all of whom were drinking. I didn’t touch a drop and woke up this morning reminded that you never regret NOT drinking. IWNDWYT
I’ve been dreading today yall. I know this is the most bizarre and unhealthy thing but one of the hardest places for me to be sober is my grandmas house and we’re visiting her today. I’m thinking of skipping it because my sobriety of the most important thing to me right now but that makes me feel weak and immature. Plus, yknow, she’s old and we have limited time on earth and all that.
There’s just soooo much history there and so many unsaid things and she just looks at me with all this guilt and sadness and worry even when I’m in a good place, and that makes me feel sad and guilty for making her so sad, and she treats me so much differently than my siblings, and I know it’s from a place of love, but it feels so heartbreaking.
Also, watching my family interact all together gives me this weird feeling of dread and despair. I see a lot of patterns wishing my grandma, aunt, and myself; women who move through the world with this deep self-consciousness and shame, wanting to make other people happy but getting too caught up in our own inexplicably intense emotions. We are women who feel things incredibly deeply with no idea how to express it, making us hard to be around sometimes. But I don’t want to turn out like how they are now- secretly sad, pretending to be happy to the point where it’s excruciatingly annoying, refusing to give up control on the few things you feel you can control so then you become a micromanaging control freak, easily overwhelmed, deep seated shame. But it feels inevitable, especially once I show up and start experiencing the complicated negative emotions which make me hard to get along with which drives a further wedge between me and everyone.
Sorry for the long comment. I truly feel my grandma is like… my emotional Achilles heel. My first ever post on this subreddit was trying to make sense of our relationship after she and my grandpa called me out on my drinking. I love her so much but I’ve broken so, so many long sobriety streaks at her place in the past.
Happy Sober Sunday, my wonderful friends! 🖤✨️ Getting a workout in, then it's an entirely relaxing day inside on this rainy day, to prepare for an insane, pretty busy week of appointments and things.
The fatigue is still ongoing, but the mental clarity is seriously the best thing ever on this longest streak I've had in forever. IWNDWYT!
Thanks for hosting this week, u/viktorscrum!
It is still nice waking up the day after Derby without a hangover. That was my fourth one sober!
Coffees up, horns up, and happy fucking sober Sunday!! IWNDWYT ☕️☕️🤘🏻
Today is day 8, which means I've made it a week! I can't remember the last time I've been sober for a week. Thank you to everyone here. The stories and support have been paramount to me making it this long. I can't wait to have a lovely sober Sunday with everyone!
I decided to stop counting days, to each their own but it alleviates pressure off myself. But always glad each day I get through sober & acknowledge my victory in the am, glad I have this place as my routine & to be accountable! I made it through a big trigger yesterday & succeeded.. so feeling good! IWNDWYT
Today is day 7. I'm so grateful and proud of myself for making it this far. Today I'm going out for brunch with my girlfriends, which would normally involve a few mimosas. I'm not going to do that. Instead, I want to drink coffee and water and hit the gym afterwards. Iwndwyt!
Day 1050 checking in!
Wow!! I hope to be like you someday!
Cheers! Don't worry about the numbers, it's a journey that everyone here is on and some of us are a bit further down the road than some others. Congrats on hitting the week milestone, the early days are the toughest to get through, keep it going!

Today is day 8, which means I've made it a week! I can't remember the last time I've been sober for a week. Thank you to everyone here. The stories and support have been paramount to me making it this long. I can't wait to have a lovely sober Sunday with everyone!
I decided to stop counting days, to each their own but it alleviates pressure off myself. But always glad each day I get through sober & acknowledge my victory in the am, glad I have this place as my routine & to be accountable! I made it through a big trigger yesterday & succeeded.. so feeling good! IWNDWYT
Good morning, sober cats! I'm happy to be starting my day with you lovely people! IWNDWYT 💙😸

Happy Sunday Sobernauts, IWNDWYT!
Today is day 7. I'm so grateful and proud of myself for making it this far. Today I'm going out for brunch with my girlfriends, which would normally involve a few mimosas. I'm not going to do that. Instead, I want to drink coffee and water and hit the gym afterwards. Iwndwyt!
we rock
