In efforts to create awareness about addiction in South Africa we started work on the “Addictionary” on the We Do Recover website which has become a comprehensive glossary of addiction-related terms, concepts and topics. Our “Addictionary” now includes over 1,000 pages ranging from brief overviews to detailed articles. Updated weekly, this section reflects the latest understandings in addiction treatment, part of an ongoing effort for the past 10 years to ensure information remains current and useful for those seeking knowledge on addiction and recovery.
