      i went to a relatively high-performing high school lots of students trying to get into top colleges, lots of pressure from parents and it made a lot of people neurotic, i’m pretty sure a third of the people i knew* were depressed or had anxietyhttps://twitter.com/eigenrobot/status/1425725434688249856 …

      *most of my acquaintances were honors/AP students, so these were the people who took academics the most seriously and were under a lot of pressure

      idk exactly what the drug use statistics were, but i’m pretty sure the most popular drug after weed was xanax which, idk, doesn’t really seem like something you do for fun

      Same here. It's just constant and then you figure out that it means nothing, that no one cares and that you probably shouldn't have...

      (Hell, I didn't even go to a prep school, I went to a "community oriented" high school that was pretty nice, and basically everyone I knew personally was depressed or anxious, and everyone I didn't know was getting high or drinking on the weekend).

      I'm a special case in a lot of ways (hearing disorder = no extracurricular stuff, small private high school), but it's crazy. Having a few good teachers recommend colleges helped me a lot, but actually selecting one and applying to it was still a nightmare and then it was...

          Not much anyone could have done I don't think. Just this particular period of the great historical cycle. And my experience is a bit distorted by lockdown, personal circumstances (going to a small school was not good! last 2 years of HS were incredibly boring), etc.

          My HS graduating class was 500+ people. I barley attended the last two years. There is no good size, better option, whatever. It’s all just got to be burned down.
