      I wonder if there is a relation between drug use and proximity to recreation.

        Pretty sure the Iceland thing proved that one. When they made extracurriculars like athletics or clubs mandatory (and obviously supported it so it wasn’t a giant effort for the families), teen alcohol/drug addiction dropped handily.

      Yes. Theresa a massive cocaine problem in my country largely because of how no one has a clue to form friends anymore. The Irish are friendly but terrible friends. Tons of acquitances but little to no actual bonds beyond a superficial level.
