Sunnyside - Naltrexone & App to Drink Less or QuitReviews of sunnyside.co

If you don’t mind being responded to by a computer bot most of the time, then spend the $74 a year for this app. If you don’t mind receiving text messages (6-10 of them) to your iPhone that are not in order, spend the $74 a year for this app. If you don’t mind the lack of responsibility taken for poor communication within the app, spend the $74 a year.

I love the daily check-ins texts. The texts are a great reminder and visual to keep me motivated and on track of my daily targets and weekly end goals. When I see the green ✅️, I feel accomplished.

Sunnyside is keeping me accountable. Daily reminders to track my drinking and follow up the next day to confirm accurate tracking. They provided a set of goals and allowed to me adjust to what I am comfortable with. Gentle coaching when I don’t meet my own goals and constant encouragement for at least tracking my alcohol intake.

It’s personal. You reached out immediately kept in touch answered any questions weren’t just generic texts you are a real live person/people and shared personal experiences. Very helpful.

The idea is a good one - direct text messages rather than an app which you can forget to check. However, this method of reduction wasn't working for me, but I'm sure it is beneficial to others. I cancelled my membership online, or so I thought. The entire year's membership has been taken from my account after the free trial. There were no premptive emails informing me that the free trial was coming to an end and that I would be paying for the year. If that had happened I would have realised that an administrative error had taken place and recancelled. Not massively happy.

I like the daily reminders. I’m not sure which messages are automatically generated and which are sent by a person. I’m still new at this so I’m giving 3stars for now.

When I first started, I wasn't sure that I was going to continually spend the money. However, it turned out that having a plan and reminders of that plan really helps me stick to it. And oddly enough, the fact that the reminders come to you text messages rather than app notifications seems to register more with me.

I appreciate the mindfulness approach to monitoring my drinking habits. I also like the positive feedback and support from the program, as well as the lack of criticism or judgemental comments on days when my consumption exceeds my targets. My only hesitation in continuing the program is privacy concerns about reporting my daily consumption online, particularly if that information can be hacked.
