We’re winding down.

A message to our readers

In April, we asked our readers to share feedback with us, and it was overwhelmingly positive: 94% of respondents said they’d be at least “somewhat disappointed” if anxiety.eco no longer existed; 30% would be “very disappointed”.

Which is why we are, indeed, very disappointed ourselves to share that we are putting anxiety.eco on indefinite hiatus.

The simple reason we’re winding down is that, as a boot-strapped independent project, we’ve run out of runway. A lot of folks don’t know that every issue costs us money to send. The small cohort of Founding and Lifetime Members who generously supported us have helped us make it to the six month mark, but we’re unable to cover our costs for the next six months, let alone pay ourselves.

As we wind down anxiety.eco, we’re feeling sad it is shorter-lived than we hoped, but we remain proud of the original reporting we’ve published on a weekly basis.

Closing a publication well costs money, too: paid subscriber refunds, platform and software fees, and archiving what we’ve built so it stays readable for anyone who wants to revisit it.

If you’d like to help support that, we’ve set up a simple tip jar.

Thanks for reading and supporting.
