What we publish

  • answer-first explainers about addiction, dependence and tolerance;
  • alcohol, cocaine, cannabis, opioid, prescription-medication and other substance guides;
  • safety-focused detoxification, withdrawal and overdose information;
  • treatment, recovery and relapse-prevention guides;
  • family support resources; and
  • clinically framed comparisons of private and luxury rehab options.

What we do not do

We do not diagnose readers, provide emergency services, prescribe medication, guarantee outcomes or present accommodation and marketing language as evidence of clinical quality. We do not label a page “medically reviewed” unless a named, appropriately qualified reviewer has reviewed that version.

Our editorial model

Foundational health claims are checked against primary research, current clinical guidance and authoritative public-health sources. Treatment-provider details are checked against current official and regulator information where available. Pages show evidence-check dates, sources, clinical boundaries and urgent-help language where relevant.

Corrections

Use the contact page to report a factual error, an inaccessible source, outdated clinical guidance or a page that needs further review.
