No. OONVAA is a companion, not a replacement for professional help. If you have heavy alcohol consumption or physical dependency, please consult a doctor. The app includes crisis hotline numbers for emergencies.

Cravings usually pass within 15–20 minutes. OONVAA includes Urge Surfing, a technique to observe and ride out cravings without acting on them. The Toolbox also offers breathing exercises and a distraction list for acute moments.

The first step is awareness: track how much you drink and why. OONVAA guides you through onboarding to clarify your goal. Reduce, pause, or abstain completely. Tools like a sobriety timer, AI companion Sam, and the Toolbox support you day by day. For physical dependency, always consult a doctor first.

Many people notice better sleep and more energy within a few days. Over the following weeks and months, the body can recover in various ways — the liver, for example — and the risk of several health conditions may decrease. How quickly and how much varies a lot from person to person. OONVAA shows a general timeline of what can change over time. Note: with physical dependency, sudden withdrawal can be dangerous — please seek medical guidance.

Many people notice first improvements within a few days — better sleep, less bloating, more energy. For others it takes longer, and that’s normal too. OONVAA helps you track how you feel over time. If you’re worried about withdrawal symptoms, please consult a doctor.

It depends entirely on your previous consumption. As an example: two drinks a day at €3 each add up to around €2,000 over a year. The built-in Cost Calculator shows your personal savings based on your own data.

Urge Surfing is a mindfulness-based technique for handling cravings. Instead of fighting or suppressing the urge, you observe it like a wave that rises and falls on its own. Research suggests urge surfing can help reduce the likelihood of acting on a craving. OONVAA includes a guided Urge Surfing exercise in the Toolbox.

A relapse is not a failure. It’s information. OONVAA doesn’t judge you: you can reset your timer at any time and keep going. Sam supports you without blame. Many people need several attempts before long-term change sticks. That’s normal and human.
