A Letter to Your Future Struggling Self

A letter to your future self.


Anything you write is kept under lock and key while in transit. See the privacy page for details.

This tool is designed for people about to quit drinking — if you’ve already quit and are having the time of your life, you might consider the Postcard from the Peak. But you do you!

What this is for: After you quit drinking, in a few months you'll be healthier and feeling much better — but also, probably in this strange state where you run out of gas as your dopamine system takes longer to recalibrate and everything feels flat.

You can do all the tracking of gains but sometimes it just sucks the life out of you. And a real letter from YOU at that point, arriving in your inbox at exactly that moment, in your own words, well…I know that kind of thing can work wonders. You don't have to be a cheerleader or "disasterize" where you are right now. Just be real.

Note for testers: This could also be done with SMS (basically free for me) or an actual postcard (for roughly $1 each) if there was any interest. I just thought email was easy and good enough.
