    Both of them are due to Shit Life Syndrome. Honestly with everything electronically tuned to produce the biggest state of fear imaginable on top of end stage capitalism, I’m not surprised that substance escapism is rampant.

      that substance escapism is rampant.

      escapism as an addiction is a huge problem. But no one wants to talk about phone or alcohol addiction as its often not as public.

        I’d easily argue alcohol addiction is very much public in Australia. But as long as it’s the amiable cool fun guy social drinking you get a pass.
