Dear Loyal Readers,

As we welcome 2025, I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to each of you for making the Addiction/Recovery eBulletin a vital resource for our community. Your weekly curiosity, and hunger for brilliance, brings confidence to advertisers to be associated with the leading source of independent addiction news and information in the country.

This past year has been one of remarkable growth and fascinating articles. We’ve reported on the latest breaking news in the world of addiction and recovery, shining a light on issues that matter most. From exposing rehab scandals to celebrating breakthroughs in medical research, we’ve strived to keep you informed and empowered.

2024 was also a year of notable celebrity sobriety journeys. We’ve seen public figures share their recovery stories, breaking the stigma and demonstrating that recovery is possible for anyone. These stories not only inspire but also amplify the conversation around addiction and mental health.

In the realm of literature and cinema, our book and film reviews have spotlighted transformative works that resonate with the recovery community. Whether it was a memoir that touched your soul or an indie film that was all too easy to relate to, we are honored to have shared these cultural events with you.

We’ve delved into the complex intersections of addiction and other conditions, such as eating disorders, mental health challenges, and the evolving landscape of treatment options. Our coverage of Alcoholics Anonymous, advocacy issues, and scientific studies has aimed to provide a balanced perspective, celebrating progress while addressing ongoing challenges.

None of this would be possible without advertisers. We feel and sense our connection to countless readers. To our sources, thank you for your hard work and professionalism.

As we step into this new year, we remain committed to being your trusted source for addiction and recovery news. Together, we shall continue to entertain, educate, advocate, and inspire. Here’s to a year of healing, growth, and endless possibilities.

With gratitude, grace and optimism,
