abstract="BACKGROUND: To profile the demographics, goals and alcohol consumption of participants in Hello Sunday Morning, an online forum discussing experiences in abstaining from alcohol. <br><br>METHODS: All participants in Hello Sunday Morning were invited to enter demographic, self-reported goals and alcohol consumption data. We report on data from 3037 participants. Main outcome measures are age, gender, country of residence, self-reported goals and alcohol consumption measures (AUDIT). <br><br>RESULTS: 64% of Hello Sunday Morning participants were under the age of 40. Participants were more likely to be female and riskier drinkers than other treatment seeking populations. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: Hello Sunday Morning attracts a unique population of heavy drinking participants. Future research is needed to examine whether participants' self-reported alcohol consumption changes after participation.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
