Some people think that cutting back on drinking is all about having less. But at Sunnyside, we’re all about having more. More rested mornings, more days when you’re feeling your absolute best, more energy and positivity. We’re not here to say “don’t go out” or “never drink”. We’re here to help you to enjoy your life AND wake up ready to shine your brightest.
We can all benefit from being mindful and intentional about our drinking.
Unlike a lot of services out there, we’re focused on helping build healthy habits with no pressure to cut your drinking down to zero.
We support you 100% with positivity and encouragement on your journey, through any ups and downs.
You’re the boss. We always allow you to adjust your weekly plans to match your lifestyle or needs.
Sunnyside adapts to your starting point, goals and progress, and adjusts your plan accordingly.
Sunnyside is a secure platform. The information you share is always confidential. Read more about our approach to privacy and security.
Sunnyside helps you reach your goals—and stick with them long term—by focusing on three key, scientifically-proven superpowers:
Each week you set an intention for the week ahead that includes a tracking goal, a drink goal, and possibly a dry day goal.
Next you’ll learn the habit of tracking each drink as soon as you finish it, which creates a mindful pause before you start the next one.
We know this is a big step that can be tough at times. That’s why we offer coaching through SMS and email to give you support, advice, and motivation.

About Sunnyside
Sunnyside is a comprehensive platform for building a healthier relationship with alcohol. We combine a behavior-change app, real human coaching, and Sunnyside Med — our Telehealth service where licensed providers can prescribe medication to help reduce alcohol cravings. Members using the Sunnyside app report an average 33% reduction in weekly alcohol consumption, and Sunnyside Med customers are reducing their drinking by nearly 50% on average — along with improved sleep, better mental clarity, and an overall improved sense of well-being.
What is Naltrexone? Naltrexone is a medication that works by blocking opioid receptors in the brain, which reduces the pleasurable effects of alcohol and helps decrease cravings. Originally approved by the FDA in 1994 for the treatment of alcohol dependence, Naltrexone has been shown in clinical studies to significantly reduce heavy drinking days and support long-term moderation. Sunnyside Med prescribes a compounded oral formulation containing Naltrexone as part of a comprehensive treatment plan that includes coaching, tracking, and ongoing medical support.
Sunnyside Med connects you with licensed medical providers who can prescribe compounded medication containing Naltrexone, an active ingredient that is FDA-approved to support alcohol moderation, through a private Telehealth process. Sunnyside Med is not a substitute for emergency services or inpatient treatment. If you are in crisis or experiencing severe withdrawal symptoms, please contact SAMHSA’s National Helpline at 1-800-662-4357 or call 911. We are proud partners of Moderation Management, a non-profit dedicated to reducing the harm caused by the misuse of alcohol.
