According to Government estimates, there are over 40M U.S. citizens suffering from substance abuse (http://www.samhsa.gov/data/NSDUH/2k11State/NSDUHsaeTables2011.pdf_) many of whom are teenagers. While there are many support groups like Alcoholics Anonymous to help people fight their addictions, it's not always convenient to go to these meetings on a frequent basis. Most people don't have the courage to admit that they have an addicition.
People would love to discuss these types of issues online without revealing their identities. Mainstream media like Facebook, Twitter, Quora, LinkedIn, and others are not the right places to discuss these things. Why? Because everyone knows who you are! That's where sites like socialnumber.com can play a big role as online psychiatrists or support groups with full anonymity. Feel free to discuss any taboo topics and get feedback from other like-minded people.
