Any ebook that focuses on the dire challenges of substance abuse, addiction, or substance dependence should be written with the reader in mind. It should include many examples of different substances that addicts suffer from. Such an e-book should appeal not only to a afflicted person suffering from dependency, but also to their friends, family, doctors, and counsellors. Okay, I have provided below some ideas on what topics should be covered and listed in bold in the table of contents.
Creating a table of contents first without the page numbers is an ideal strategy for the writer to keep them on track, covering all important topics and subtopics. Later, after completing, editing, formatting and adding images to the eBook, the last thing would be to add the page numbers of each chapter and subchapter of the eBook.
Here are some of the topics I would recommend in the addiction ebook and table of contents:

You must have a lot of information for friends and family trying to help them.
