Sobriety Calendar: Free Printable, 12 Months

This sobriety calendar gives you 12 monthly pages to mark every day you stay sober, one day at a time. It's free to print, with no sign-up, and it works for any month in any year: just write in the month and start.

Seeing the days add up helps, especially early on. And if you slip, the days you already marked still happened. You start a new month page, call someone, and keep going.

How to use it

  • Write the month at the top of a page. Cross out any days the month doesn't have.
  • Each night before bed, fill in the circle for a sober day. A star, a check or a color all work.
  • Pray as you mark it. Thank God for the day.
  • At the end of the month, count your days and write the number at the top.
  • Keep it where you'll see it in the morning: the fridge, the bathroom mirror, inside your Bible.

If you slip

Don't tear up the calendar. The days you marked were real, and so was God's help on each one. Call your sponsor, get to a meeting, and tell the truth. If you've been drinking heavily, see a doctor before you stop again, because withdrawal can be dangerous. Then mark tomorrow and keep going. Many people find their recovery got stronger after an honest look at a slip.

  1. My sobriety date:
  2. Who I'll show this calendar to each month:
  3. Why I'm counting these days:

Fill in the circle for each sober day. One day at a time. A slip never erases the days before it: call someone and start again tomorrow.

How to use it

  1. Print all 13 pages, or just the months you need.
  2. Write in the month and your sobriety date.
  3. Mark each sober day at night, and thank God for it.
  4. Show the month to your sponsor when it's done.
  5. Celebrate the milestones: 30 days, 60, 90, and the first year.

Safety first. If you drink heavily every day, stopping suddenly can be dangerous. Talk to a doctor before you quit.

Common questions

Does this calendar work for any year?

Yes. Each page has 31 numbered boxes and a blank for the month, so you can start any month and cross out the days a short month doesn't have.

What if I slip?

Keep the calendar. The days you marked still count as days God carried you. Call your sponsor, get to a meeting, and start marking again. If you've been drinking heavily, see a doctor first.

Should I count days at all?

Many people find it helps, especially in the first year. If counting starts to feel like pressure, talk it over with your sponsor. The goal is today, not the number.

Can I print copies for my group?

Yes. Print as many as you like and share them freely.
