About QuitMate

QuitMate is a community and app for people working to quit addictive habits, including alcohol, gambling, porn, smoking, and more. Members track their progress, write short daily check-ins, and support each other through the ups and downs of recovery.

Today QuitMate is a community of thousands of members across more than a dozen recovery categories. It is available on iOS and Android.

Why we publish

This journal exists to share what recovery actually looks like, drawn from the lived experience of our community and from published research, in plain and honest language. We are more interested in what is true than in what sounds dramatic.

That also means what we will not do: we do not sell miracle cures or promise overnight transformations. Recovery is gradual and individual, and we try to say so, even when a more sensational version would get more attention.

How our content is made

Our articles are grounded in real community experience and cite primary sources for health claims. For the details of our process, sourcing, and the limits of what we publish, see our Editorial Policy.
