Not only asked, but told what I should be eating, drinking, etc.; what I should gain and look for as I gain; tested for diabetes and high BP.

I don't know where you are coming up with these ideas, but as a child of the 50's and 60's and the oldest of 4, the last born in 1963, not one of us was a druggy, cutter, but my sister and I have tattoos. So?
I was given Demoral-my 15 year olds are sickeningly normal. How do you explain the drugs of the 30's? 40's? 50's?
One of the outcomes of the 'hippie' movement was the increase of natural chidlbirth, yet drug use hasn't gone down in kind.
Methinks you are grasping at straws in an effort to use any reason to promote your agenda, one that goes far beyond a simple choice to do it at home.
"Small studies" are just that and totally inconclusive when one takes in the bigger picture. Take 100 drug users and find out what their mothers were given, if anything, and dollars to donuts, there'd be an overwhelming ratio showing a false correlation. That's like saying those in prison had bad childhoods, then declaring all bad childhoods result in people going to prison.
Part of debate, in order to make a valid point, is 'doing the homework for you'. If you are going to make claims, show why the claim is made. Otherwise, it's simply your opinion.
